Iowa will pay $10 million to the siblings of an adopted 16-year-old girl who weighed just 56 pounds when she died of starvation in a home where an attorney for the siblings says the children were forced to fight each other for food.

A state board approved the settlement for the siblings Monday, years after the severely malnourished body of Sabrina Ray was found in 2017 at her home in Perry, about 40 miles northwest of Des Moines. She lived with three other adoptive siblings as well as foster siblings.
