I certainly HOPE and PRAY this chilkd is NEVER back in the custody of these 2 animals…and I hope they get what’s coming to them! Some people don’t ever need to have children, but it’s starnge to me, the ones that want them and will love and care for them, can’t have them and 2 idiots like this can…

@ Timothy

“You can only imagine what would happen if there was an infant in their care.”

She was once an infant in their care, I am quite sure this was not the first time something like this has happened, I hope the girl gets therapy/counseling that she will need to help her heal.

Glad they did something. I had a family member with a child that hands were tied behind his back with a rope at age four because he picked his nose. The man was reported to Children and Family by the parent of the child. Thank God a fire did not start in the house when the child was in bed with hands tied behind his back. The family was later told this social worker had never removed a child from a home. I hope the system has improved in the last five years.

I pray for the child’s sake these two individuals will go before Judge Bergosh!

As a kid I got my butt whipped,but my folks never went that far. There is never a reason to abuse a child!!! I hope they get the max.

My gosh, they need to be handcuffed themselves (without washclothes being used might I add), blindfolded and beatened with a baseball bat and maybe they will think twice about ever hitting another child again. Scum bags!

Thankful for the other children who were willing to tell someone when they knew their friend/classmate was in this type of situation. So often it is never reported. This childs friends, the school and the deputies involved may have saved this childs life and it all began by other children being brave enough to tell someone.

This is sickening, I pray that this child is able to heal and not grow up to be abusive. They both deserve what ever time they get and are never to have children or have children in their care again.

@ Mike O ….. the bath cloth around the wrist is to try and avoid the signs of abuse showing, If the child had struggled then without the there would be visible cuts, scars, and signs of struggle. But with the clothes it protect the wrist for showing abuse. IJS
