Sick, Sick, Sick

There should be a special place in hell for these people:

Police lay charges in Red Deer baby death
"Police have said they believe four-month-old Zaria McCall was inside her family home in Red Deer when she was injured, and one of her parents took her to Red Deer Regional Hospital."
[---]
"The next morning, she succumbed to her injuries, and RCMP began investigating the case as a suspicious death.

The baby's father, Julian Thomson, 21, has been charged with second-degree murder."
You know, four month old babies can cry a lot, keep you awake all night, night after night, etc. They are totally helpless and, whether they mean to or not, very demanding. It can be very, very stressful for poor sleep deprived parents, but beating a baby to death???? There is no excuse for that. Bring back the death penalty for child killers.

I can't even bring myself to read it. Sorry.

The last such desperately sad story I read -even more recent than the terrible story of the two little Indian sisters frozen to death because of their drunken father- was in the NY Post. It was about a woman's boyfriend "babysitting" her 3 year old daughter while she was at night school, beating the little girl to death, as she'd angered him over her supposed bad manners. The horror...

I'm blessed/cursed with a vivid imagination and when I read such a story, it brings really upsetting tear-jerker images to my mind's eye.

As a Christian, it's my hope and faith in Christian doctrine that a young child is inherently in a state of innocent grace, incapable of mentally formulating a sinful thought or act and assured of Eternal Salvation through God's love, even though too young to understand and accept Jesus.

The same cannot be said of the perpetrator.
