Here’s An Update
That I bet you didn’t hear about on your local news broadcast. It’s not that the media isn’t covering this story, it’s just that they’re burying it, even at cnn.com. Remember back in September when this story was the lead-in on each and every newscast? Well, the verdict is in, and not surprisingly, no one wants to touch it with a 10-foot pole. Could it be, oh I don’t know, that she was only sentenced to time served? And before you go thinking that surely must have been a while, let me tell you the duration: 4 days. Apparently, that’s all the time a child abuser needs to reflect on the nature of his/her injustice. Sorry, it just infuriates me that the people who absolutely, unequivocably should not have children are the very same ones who so often take them for granted at the very least, and neglect and abuse them at the very worst. Damn.
