Talked to hubby in Tex. and heard the news from Galveston and apparently a couple in a hotel put their 2 month old child in the microwave for 10 seconds. This child received burns but the mother is wanting custody. This is worse than anything I have ever could imagine. Why would anyone do something like this to a baby?

I hope this child will put up for adoption and never see its natural parents as long as it will live.

I work in a trauma unit and sadly we see many of these cases, I have a 3 month old right now with a fractured skull, subdural hematoma, and a burn to his leg, obviously child abuse. I have had a 2 week old with a fractured skull, and a 3 year old with sperm on her stomach and gonorrhea and the father blamed it on the 7 year old brother. Child abuse and neglect is a common incident in this country for various reasons and it is sad. This is why we have to have dedicated individuals in social services who will look into these cases and find good homes for these children. For some reason male babies tend to be the majority of these cases. My boyfriends ex girlfriend got married and her husband punched the baby in the head causing permanent damage and retardation,the baby is not expected to live much past 5 years old. I feel like there had to be signs, but then again you never really know a person until they do something terrible like this. There are monsters in this world but you never imagine they live next door, lay in the bed with you, or attend your church.

What the?!?! What is wrong with people? That's my only question, and I swear it seems to pop up everyday for various reasons.
Anyway, I'd say the couple is actually NOT in their right mind. One stable, balanced person would not allow their newborn child to be placed in a microwave let alone turning it on. Both mom and dad, even though they do NOT have a right to those titles, are looped and should be put away for attempted murder or something. I don't know what they could really get, but neither of those people should have or deserve that child. That child deserves a family who is not the Manson family.

OMG how horrible, I haven't listened to the news at all in a few days... I hadn't even heard. The only possible explanation has to be drugs or mental issues.... but that is no excuse, there has to have been warning signals leading up to this.

Because they are probably high on drugs, and I think for their punishment, they should be left out in the desert, when it is 115 degrees in Phoenix, whith no water, no sun screen, left out there to melt, and die. Just my personal opinion, I think the punishment should fit the crime. The lady on the news today, that broke her childs arms and legs in multiple places, then just let the toddler lay in bed for days in agony. They should break every bone in her body, that won't kill her, and leave her to be, with no pain meds what so ever. Then they should surgically tie her tubes, ( maybe with no pain meds there either) so she can't produce any more innocent lives to ruin and torture.

he also punched her in the stomach, put her in the fridge and a hotel safe. He is messed up in the head.
He wasn't on drugs. Drugs dont make people do bad things, people decide to do bad things cause they are messed up in the brain and sometimes drugs help cause it makes them loose their inhibitions.

If it was on the TV then they got arrested, good. People like that make my skin crawl.

They were probably taking drugs, are incredibly cruel, have mental diseases, or some combination thereof. That is absolutely sickening.
