Thanks rebelcowboy, well said.

We naturally want to protect the defenseless in our society but yet sometimes we quickly race to judgment, destroying someone else's life along the way. Here is an article that appeared today...this man lost 30 years of his life: In Prison for 30 Years. I don't know the details of that case, but I feel fairly confident that the prosecutor felt that he achieved a just sentence. The prosecutor had *all* the evidence before him during the investigation and trial (except for the DNA results), he had his detectives that worked on it, probably forensic labs, witnesses, etc.,. He made a case and convinced a jury of this man's guilt. But, the man was innocent.

How can we, then, judge this woman when all we know is what is written in the news....this day and time news is written to sell, not necessarily to be accurate.

The blood of this child and millions of others will not go unanswered.

No matter what facts are known or not known, I *know* that justice will be served.

In this case I know the news is pretty accurate. Having heard directly from family member who turned in the dad and mom to the sherrif's office...... I guess I can make my own judgement

So true, so sad. I wish folks who hurt kids knew we'd hang them from a tree as soon as convicted. Bet there'd be a lot less crimes against children

No matter what facts are known or not known, I *know* that justice will be served.

AMEN!!! Throw him in general population.​

Did this poor baby have siblings?
Did another child listen to his little brother being beaten to death?
Lord, please let there not be another child suffering through this loss, and the guilt that would come with it (unjustified, but kids never seem to realize it is NOT their fault when things like this happen)!

Poor little boy.

This came from a relative who lives in the town I work. Mother was high on drugs, as was the dad. No excuse, no mercy, no "judging" because of what she might have went through. What about what this little boy went through while he was beat to death for four days.

an older brother.......

Both boys were in and out of foster care. The judge granted custody to the mom, even though there were numerous CS stuff going on. The counties children services is getting hammered badly by the media also.

The little one will never suffer again. But the older boy is surely suffering a world of hurt right now.
I hope the legal system finally does justice for both of these children.

I hope karma and Judgement finish whatever the legal system starts!!

it's something I'll never understand or make sense of. I know I could never do that to a child. I hope calmer souls than mine try this case and sentencing.

Actually i DO know what i would do... honestly, i do.
I have been punched in the face by a guy before..(still got a slight chip in my front tooth from it...

.. you cant really see the chip..but i can feel it with my tongue.. my dentist tried to smooth it out for me.. but its still there ) .. Anyways.. what did i do? I picked up a heavy brass lamp by the bed and beat him over the head with it..
... i said..if i'm going down.. you're going with me, you $%^^&*!!!! and i kept hitting him.. finally i stopped when i saw blood... i got scared of myself..and my anger.
Later he said i was crazy.. that i could have killed him... I said..oohh well... dont you EVER put your hands on me. Needless to say... i didnt stay with him.
And .. i KNOW..if i had a child and if he would have ever abused my kid i WOULD have killed him. Not even gave it a second thought...
So.. honestly i DO know what I would have done... just saying...
And i hope and pray that mother gets it in jail.... really really hope....

When I think of my littlest one who is 4 this kills me... Poor baby boy. My 4 year old is still such a baby, how could she allow that? I mean even if you ARE afraid that the guy might kill you, SO WHAT if you die or get beat within an inch of your life if it protects your baby???
