"2-year-old fatally beaten with video game controller"

"YORK, Pa. (AP) — A 2-year-old girl died after being beaten with a video game controller by her mother's boyfriend and new charges are expected, police said Tuesday.

Darisabel Baez was pronounced dead late Monday at Hershey Medical Center, police Lt. Ron Camacho said.

The girl's mother, Neida E. Baez, 19, called for an ambulance Sunday saying her boyfriend, Harve L. Johnson, had brought the unconscious child to her, limp and wet from an attempt to revive her in a bathtub, a police affidavit said."

1. My dear johnnie...

Oh, how horrifying...

Those animals...

And that precious little girl...to die like that...:cry:

I will never understand what possesses people to behave like that...

2. I know I shouldn't have even posted it

But I was just sitting here after reading that story and I guess I wanted to get it out of my system. :shrug:

3. Ah, johnnie...

I think you did right by posting it...

We need to know that this sort of thing does happen, and we need to think how we can help keep it from happening...

Avoiding it doesn't do anyone any good, after all...


And I always am glad to see you posting...

You don't do nearly enough of it to suit me!

:hug:

4. I thought this would be a picture of Jimi Hendrix, or Pete Townshend, or similar

guitar-killer smashing or burning a guitar to death on stage.

I wish it was.

Though nobody can bring back little Darisabel, I can only hope that Harve L. Johnson gets precisely what he deserves. And that it hurts. A lot.

5. You know

this kind of stuff brings out the redneck in me - and I want to go get a couple of buds and beat the shit out of this guy.

Just like that story where the dad super-glued his daughter's eyes shut because she wouldn't go to sleep...

It just brings out the worst in me.

6. I hope that idiot gets

the crap beat out of him everyday he is in prison. It won't bring that poor little girl back but he needs his butt kicked a lot.
