I feel so sorry for those kids. What they went through is unbelievable. 🙁

It really is horrible.

Those sacks of sh!t parents look so happy in those photos. People capable of torturning children have no reason to look so happy.

My guess is that their motive for 'adoption' of these 5 kids is that they receive a
grand or two a month from the state to provode food & lodging until the kids reach
the age of 18. So they a getting a free ride to the tune of $ 5,000 - $ 10,000 each
month so they don't have to work - just use a 'welfare provision' to supplement
themselves, and abuse the hell out of the kids by withholding food & proper care.

Their bet is that the system is so bogged down they won't get be found out & be caught.
There's been a history of this in Florida, as well as other states.

Infant's injuries nearly 'head to toe,' police say

The 6-month-old girl fighting for her life after being severely abused, both physically and sexually, was covered from "head to toe" with brutal injuries, police said Friday.

The parents, Ivan Castaneda, 22, and Donna Marie Norman, 19, are each charged with injury to a child and are being held without bond. Charges may be upgraded to capital murder if the infant dies, police said.

She remains in Texas Children's Hospital's intensive care unit and is breathing on her own, but is still suffering from internal bleeding, and doctors are not sure if she will survive. The baby was penetrated or raped vaginally and anally, and her tongue was nearly severed, police said. Investigators aren't sure how her tongue was cut so severely because she doesn't have teeth.

The infant also had skull fractures, brain contusions and hemorrhaging, as well as injuries to her liver, lungs and kidneys, said Houston Police Department Sgt. Randy Upton. "In this case, the trauma was nearly head to toe," he said.

Police are investigating how the wounds occurred, but criminal complaints accuse the parents of striking the baby with an unknown object.
