Wtf :Q Really makes you wonder if criminals are born rather than made. Personally I think we owe a lot more to our genes than many would like to admit.

If it's a repost, I have a new type of nut for you to taste-test, but there are only two of them :p I tried like 10 different search strings.

You realize that if crime IS COMPLETELY nature it's pointless to have a judicial system because the entire idea our judicial system is constructed around presupposes free will. Someone "born" as they are with the inability to change their personality and traits, if you will, is clearly not responsible for their actions...because they were born that way.

You really do not want people who were "born that way" to remain in society. Whether it's "their fault" or not, either neuter them or execute them.

BS. Somone named the infant "Jayza". I cast my vote for nurture. God only knows what the killers name was. Poll please...

:(:|

he told detectives he had kicked, punched and then hit his half-sister with a two-by-four piece of wood that was found in the home.

The father and his girlfriend later told detectives the boy had been jealous of his half-sisters, but not to the point that they were concerned about the girls' safety, police said.

"The only person who was alone with the child was the 7-year-old," McElroy said. "They (the father and his girlfriend) didn't want to believe the 7-year-old had done it." :(
