I hope he meets a “special friend” in prison that forces him to do things he never dreamed possible!

Why do these discussions of horrible abuse inflicted on children degenerate into the bashing of particular cities? That has little bearing on it, and matters none to the child I assure you. Do you really think that children never get abused in more affluent areas?  Nah, you just don’t hear about it as much.

disgusting. how could anyone look at a child/baby in that way.  No excuse for that kind of behavior. But ofcourse the system will label him as mentally ill. When he is actually an A-hole. He knew what he was doing.

Again I say warm up the banana boat and ship him back. Then torpedo it half way across the ocean.
