Some people in my hometown adopted a child and kept him locked in a closet, practically starved him - Polidicks

[quote=Kare11.com]NORTH MANKATO, Minn. - A North Mankato couple faces six criminal counts for allegedly starving, abusing and neglecting their adopted son. A criminal complaint says 44-year-old Mona Alane Hauer., and her 44-year-old husband Russell Hauer deprived the boy of food, made him sleep in a plastic sled inside basement room with an alarm on it, and hit him with a broom handle when he misbehaved. The alleged abuse was discovered when Mona Hauer brought the 8-year-old boy to a Mayo System-Mankato clinic after he began vomiting blood. Doctors found that the boy was in the 3rd percentile in both size and development, was extremely malnourished, and that the enamel was worn off his teeth from vomiting. Reports indicate the child was only 34.7 lbs and 3 feet 5 inches tall, and that his bones were protruding and his abdomen distended. Mona Hauer told doctors the boy was on a liquid diet because he regurgitated. She said he had issues with food, and that she and her husband would sleep outside his door at night to keep him from stealing from the refrigerator. Detectives talked to the boy, who told them that he hadn't been given solid food for two months. He said that he sometimes snuck out and ate rotted food from the family's compost pile, and occasionally digested suet from the bird feeder. He said when he was caught sneaking food he would be struck with a board or a broom handle. The boy's three siblings gave similar accounts, saying he would be forced to sit at the table and drink liquid while they dined on solid food. A sister said the boy had a bed wetting problem, and that she would have to take him out in the back yard and hose him and his urine-soaked clothes down two or three times a week. The siblings also told detectives the boy was the source of all the "problems" in the family, and that he was naughty and frequently would steal food. They also described being disciplined with the board and the broom handle. A therapist who had examined the boy before he was adopted said he exhibited "very serious, trauma-based symptoms" that would require psychotherapy and other therapies. Records show the Hauers never followed through on those recommendations. The 8-year-old remains hospitalized so doctors can treat him for the effects of severe malnutrition. Doctors say his brain is atrophied and his bones are severely underdeveloped as a result of that malnutrition. Both Mona and Russell Hauer are charged with six felony counts, ranging from neglect or endangerment of a child to malicious punishment of a child. If convicted the couple faces the potential of five years in prison on each criminal count.

Why people like these exist WHY

I hope they lock these people away in prison for the rest of their lives.

What goes though their fucking heads when they do this.

[QUOTE=Takkuull;38362004]Why'd this happen in my universe.[/QUOTE] Well we can safely say that in at least 50% of the alternate dimensions, this didn't happen.

That poor kid. First his parents have died/gone away/abandoned him and now hes been starved. What sick fuck do you have to be to do that..

[QUOTE=taipan;38362056]Well we can safely say that in at least 50% of the alternate dimensions, this didn't happen.[/QUOTE] After a quick check... not really. Say about 15%, tops.

I went back in time to stop myself from reading this but when I returned to the future the story was WORSE than before, so I went back in time to make myself read it again and when I came back to the future everything was alright...relatively speaking.

Just saw this on the news. Terrible.

[QUOTE=Madman_Andre;38362007]Why did this happen in my Galaxy...[/QUOTE] Why would this happen at all...

seems even weirder that the other kids were treated kind of normally

[QUOTE=Xenak;38361319]If convicted the couple faces the potential of five years in prison on each criminal count.[/QUOTE] Only? I think they deserve more than 30 years maximum (each) for these kinds of heinous crimes...

I'm beyond shock and awe for insidious acts like these. People like this don't deserve the planet they live on, If you're caught abusing kids with extreme cruelty it should be an automatic life sentence or up against the wall (Unless they were mental enough to not know what they were doing is wrong). Leave the choice to them.

Why'd this happen in my solipsistic existence which is purely a figment of my own imagination?

you know i would say "if you don't want a kid [I]don't [/I]adopt a god damn kid" but it's obvious they are of not clear conscious. now let me really get into the article and re- " he began vomiting blood. Doctors found that the boy was in the 3rd percentile in both size and development, was extremely malnourished, and that the enamel was worn off his teeth from vomiting.... the child was only 34.7 lbs " asgddsdagadsgadsgasdg what the fuck holyshit life sentance people jesus christ why [B]WHY[/B] [h2]WHY[/h2]

It's not even "Parenting" at all. This is easily in the realm of torture.

[QUOTE=Xenak;38361319]If convicted the couple faces the potential of five years in prison on each criminal count.[/QUOTE] Fuck. That. Shit. I don't really have words to describe these people. I can't imagine a terrible enough punishment.

I really want to kill these people,just rid the earth of them so we can continue normally.

[QUOTE=Muthenfrucheir;38364545]I really want to kill these people,just rid the earth of them so we can continue normally.[/QUOTE] It's sad that we can't, or we become as bad as them. We can't educate them, because they are too entrenched in their ways. We can't forbid them from having children (Via castration or otherwise), because that would violate their rights. The right to be ignorant is among the worst things this country has embraced.

I think we as humans should reconsider our justice and moral systems, so that we can purge these kinds of fuckers from society.

death penalty no im fucking serious give them the axe
