I just read a news story out of the UK wherein a mother allowed her boyfriend and his brother to torture, injure and eventually kill her 18 month old son. She sat in another room while they beat him and explained his screams to others as a lesson on being tough. Despite numerous visits from doctors and social workers, no one saw any reason to remove the boy for his safety. This despite the fact that the boyfriend had a record of torturing and killing small animals and was recently convicted of raping a 2 year old.

Government officials are already planning to give them new identities on the assumption that they will someday be free. LUDICROUS!!! These animals should be kept in cages - in fact, they should be on display to the public so that tomatoes and other overripe fruits and veggies can be thrown at them on a regular basis until they die!!!
This brings to mind a woman in Utah whose boyfriend tortured her child. He was removed and she was under court order to keep him out. Well, she allowed him back in and the boyfriend then KILLED her child. They didn't even arrest her!! She violated a court order, she put her child's life in jeopardy and she continued to walk free. At least the mother in this case was arrested - but she sure as hell doesn't deserve to be paroled.
What do you think?

Poor Child.
Anyone who harms a child deserves to face equal and more to what they went through. A parent who allows another to harm their child should get that doubled. And a parent who harms their child deserves to be tortured ten fold.
But to allow these people out is mind blowing.... to give them a chance to be near or to have children is just.... WRONG....

This one really got my Irish up! And, that they're already planning on how to protect these animals from the outrage???? They don't deserve it - although, as good a job as they did helping the child, maybe they'll provide an equal amount for the adults!

I have actually not heard this yet, I know I cried when I saw on the News what happened to Baby Peter it is terrible that a Mother can do this
I know the Social worker involved got sacked and tried to appeal against it but it never happened as she had let the little Boy down
As far as I am concerned they should rot in the Jail to including the Mother, I really can not believe a Mother can do this to her own Son she is not worth being on this earth

Put them in jail, with the rest of the crimanals, let it be known what they have done and then see real justice!! From what I have most people serving time in jail hate people who abuse kids, this so called mother (she might have given birth but she was no mother!) would be beaten on a regular basis and so would her boyfriend.
I'm from the UK but haven't lived there for over 18 years but if I did I would refuse to pay tax to allow these people to go free. My local MP would hear about it night and day.

hi jerzgirl hatley here.this is truly horrible and outrageous.I
think these monsters that tortured, injured then killed her precious 18 month old baby should be electrocuted but make it painful
like they did to that innocent child.we are so tame, we just slap these peoples hands then let them loose again. they should be
torured at least a little before being electrocuted. I know I am
going over board but it makes me feel sick to think about this
case. poor baby. those social workers should also have to do some prison time as they let this happen. at the very lest all these
monsters should be in jail for the rest of their lives.

It is truly disgusting, there has been a huge public outcry here in the UK ever since it happened.
I hope they rot in hell for what they did to that poor child, he was beautiful, its so sad to keep seeing pictures of his little face.

I am stunned that he was allowed to roam free with a rape charge form may on him especially since he was found guilty, because of that he had the opportunity to take another innocent life. Throwing rotten veggies is to good for them..tie them to tree, pour honey all over them and let whatever get them get them be it bears,fire ants,or bees and other insects. She was evidently high maybe or she was scared to interrupt him, but she didn't deserve to be mom is she let that happen to her child. And to happen repeatedly..alot of other people are in deep doodoo over it as well for turning there heads because they didn't want int he middle of it. well..now it is to late to save the child maybe this being and Eye opener for abuse it might save another child life.I don't think they should be able to change their names so they can live with a clean slate.. I think they should live with the results of that they did.

I really don’t get what the world is coming to! And mothers, of all people!!! Has society gone completely mad to even think of giving these savages another chance? If wild animals are kept in cages for the safety of civilized society then why not these brutes? They are not humans, in any case…and what guarantee is there that just like wild animals roaming free, they would not maim and kill another innocent life!

Awful, just awful. they should torture the boyfriend first, making the mother watch, so that she sees exactly what her child went through. Then toss her in a cell and let her live with those thoughts.

In my opinion, the UK is too soft on criminals. For example, the two boys who killed the toddler years ago in the infamous 'Chucky' killing have already been released back into society. *Shudder*. No doubt this woman will spend a couple of years in the 'chokey' and then be let out. I agree, these people should be locked up in a cage, and never let out.

I tell you the world has to be coming to an end. How does the mother allow this to happen. It happens in the states here to alot. There is just so much crime happening to innocent children all over the world. In the state of Virginia a grandmother, aunt and uncle were arrested for tying up their 6 year old granddaughter/neice for taking food from the kitchen into her bedroom. They were calling it "timeout". They would bound her feet and hands on the bed then put rubber snakes and spiders around her to scare her. This was going on for most of July. How does anyone do such a thing to anyone let alone your relative. This would still be going on if someone had not called the Department of Social Services.

That is just downright low and beastly behavior and at some point utter stupidity on the part of the government. I mean that kind of behavior is just devoid of any civil conduct or even humanity.
I've seen and known a lot of people with those sadistic tendencies but this just tops it. Don't get me wrong, I can be a monster sometimes in order to fight another monster and I can tolerate violence if need to resort to violence but to torture a kid for the sake of some screwed-up mental psycho class? That is just absurd!And the way that the government dealt with the problem is more absurd. You get a fine for overspeeding and cops will arrest your carcass if you spray paint and vandalize but you torture, rape and kill a kid and all they get is just a mere slap in the wrist?What is this world coming to?

I don't understand why there are people like that in this world. I can not even think I can hurt anyone on purpose. Those kind of people should be sent to prison for the rest of their lives. What they have done is very much inhumane. I agree that she doesn't deserve to be paroled. Heck, she doesn't even deserve to breathe.
