Officer Charged in Murder of Son, 8, Kept in Freezing Garage, Police Say
I struggled with whether to post this or not. It's simply sad and disgusting. In the end, I decided that to not post this was to look away and ignore what happened to this innocent young 8 year old . . . at the hands of his parents, no less! The light of truth needs to be shined on such depraved acts.
To my dying day, I will never understand how people not in a psychotic break could ever even begin to act with this much cruelty. I can't begin to get my head around it.
I know there will be several posters expressing their outrage and horror by advocating violence upon the parents. It is tempting to respond this way, in the moment. All I can say is, not me. Violence begets violence. An eye for an eye, and soon, the whole world is blind.
That said, I do hope this couple is removed from society and made to spend some years reflecting on just who they are and what they have done.
