http://www.rawstory.com/rs/2014/03/27/prosecutors-oregon-woman-beat-4-year-old-son-to-death-because-she-thought-he-was-gay/Prosecutors said an Oregon woman beat her 4-year-old son to death because she feared he was gay.
Zachary Dutro-Boggess was hospitalized Aug. 14, 2012, the day after his fourth birthday, with trauma to his abdomen that caused tears to his bowel, and urine and fecal matter seeped into his body cavity and damaged his vital organs.
He had collapsed at the homeless shelter where his family was living, reported The Oregonian.
He was removed from life support two days later, and his mother, Jessica Dutro, was charged with murder, murder by abuse, and second-degree assault.

Ignorance, fear, no sense of morality, no love, kills too many children. RIP.

What the fuck.
That poor baby.
This is what Tennessee wants more of: hatred of children even PERCEIVED to be gay.
Better to beat your child to death.
I am sick over this
