OMG I just can't belive this. This poor toddler was beaten and abused for days on end and even though she was seen being abused by the neighbours they did nothing about it because they were scared yet at any time they couldve rung the police annoymously. This poor little girl was swung around on the clothes line until she feel off on the concrete and they did nothing. They could hear her terrible screams for days and they did nothing. These sick people put her in a bath full of ice and then in a dryer. she was seen on the roof screaming in terror but still nothing. By the time someone did something she was found barely alive and faces brain damage and who knows what. Im sorry but if I saw any of this I would ring the police what did a toddler do to deserve this?

Awwwwww the poor toodler. Awww surely someone could of called the cops? How hard is it to do that? No toddler deserves to be treated like that, no toddler or anyone. I am so sad to hear this story.

Im sorry I made you sad but I just had to get it off my chest because I was so angry that people let this happen and I dont know who Im angrier at the people who abused the child or the people who let them get away with it. I think im split right down the middle on that one.

No no no apology, I do know what you mean. I can understand if someone was too scared to call the cops but then again the things that the toddler was going through is just outrageous and if someone had called earlier, she/he may have had a lot less injuries or even none. I don't understand why parents would do such a thing.

I am so sorry some times how ever I have made reports on suspect abuse on a ten year girl to cps and they come out and check and the parents cover it and no abuse is found several of people have and not just me we know there is abuse but these people are so good at fooling cps or cps has other things to do than save this child we all feel she to will some day soon be harm worse so sorry to hear this little ones are not protect and more people doing something no child should have to suffer

That poor little girl. Why didn't anyone call the police? What kind of monsters were her parents that the neighbors were scared of them? Maybe they should punish those who did nothing as well as their parents, the parents long jail sentences, those who refused to help to pay for the poor little girl's medical care and the physical therapy she needs to survive.
