Fetus in a gift box....

oh god that is absolutely disgusting, it is so reviling I don't even know what to say. /these people have to be crazy

tHAT IS DISGUSTING , HORRIBLE & SICK. I hope they are prsosecuted.

I couldn't believe this until i went searching other news sources for it. Well apparently it is true, just as you reprted it. Unbelieveable....un-fukkin-believabe...pardonmy language, this is disgusting. I just did a little research. In the state of texas, the abuse of a corpse is a class A misdemeanor carries a penalty of: [i]"(1) a fine not to exceed $4,000; (2) confinement in jail for a term not to exceed one year; or (3) both such fine and confinement."[/i] the evidence tampering is a 3rd degree felony and carries a penalty of 2 to 10 years and a fine of up to $10,000 So they are each looking at a maximum of 11 years apece if the sentences run cocecutively. The irony for them though, and it is only small consolation, is that all they had to do was not try to hide the corpse and they would not have been charged with anything at all.

Stuff like that makes me sick. There are people who would have been so happy to adopt that baby...

That's terrible! I am actually horrified by this story. What in the world were they thinking? I can not imagine what people are thinking sometimes. It amazes me what people are capable of.

What in the world!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?! That is aweful. Seriously aweful. I am not against abortion but that is beyond... Ugh. If that child had been born any 28 weeks it has a 96% chance of survival. So That child could of survived. And who is to say that the child wasn't trying to breathe when it was born. That is wrong. I have 4 beautiful children. I lost a baby and I was 17 weeks and the pain of cramps was aweful. And it was aweful. These people need some serious menatl help.

Views about abortion aside - that's freakin' gross. Why the hell would you want something like that under your tree? She could have simply called the doctor and had him confiscate it for her. Technically she should have, because after a miscarriage/abortion you need to see a doctor to make sure everything came out. That's just...blah.

Pretty icky stuff. Just varifies how young people think now days. THEY DONT! This is totally apalling. Why didn't she wait and give the baby up for adoption instead of killing it? Young people think of the now, they don't seem to look to the future at all. And that poor fetus! Gastly!!

How do 2 people that are that deranged find each other??? I find this story VERY disturbing!!! With that being said, I think this poor baby was LUCKY it was NOT born to 2 such UNLOVING & UNCARING people. Had they not killed this child now, I feel sure we would be hearing of horrible abuse inflicted on this child!!! Maybe God was protecting the innocent!!!

i drop my jaws! what the hell is going on in this world?! how can people be so... i don't have any word for them... this is way out of limits, so this is one of the most craziest and most ridiculously disgusting thing people can do that i have come to know about..

These people seriously need to be locked up in a psychiatric facility. First off, I can't in my right mind say that they took the pills to induce an abortion. A seven month fetus is a very viable human being. They took the pills as an effort to commit murder. Then after the murder was committed they defiled the baby to such a point as to wrap it up and put it under a tree like a gift. This is sick, twisted, and without a doubt uncalled for.

Let me ask one question to those who dare to do so. Who gave them the power to execute such a heartbreaking thing. To be blessed with a child is a precious gift from God. If they think they can do anything with their kid then they are absolutely wrong. This can never be accepted as right under any circumstances.

Wow...I don't really know what to say about something so awful.Its things like this that make me lose hope in humanity. There are babies born even earlier that survive, so i consider this murder and child abuse. The worst part for me is that they tried to flush the baby down the toilet, I feel sick just thinking about it. Who does something like that??

That was really disturbing. I dont know how can they sleep after doing those things. I just hope the government will do something about this.

Yup. That's disgusting. And you can tell the newsreader was disgusted by it, too. I wonder what they were going to do with the "gift" after Christmas. Brings new meaning to the term "trailer trash".

Hi, froggieslover. That is just so sick! This is considered murder. Abortion of any kind should be opposed by the law!! No killing of an unborn fetus at all! Why did they wrap the baby in a gift box???? This is so strange and cruel. This poor baby did not even get a chance to live! Shame on this couple. They should burn her Fallopian Tubes so that she will never have another child again!

this doesn't make any sense, why would they put it in a box and then put it under their tree? Unless they put it under someone else's tree.

I have a grandson that was born at 6 mos. gestation and weighed a mere 2 lbs. He is now a delightful, intelligent, healthy little boy about to enter kindergarten this coming year. What that couple did is indeed murder!! And I hope they are punished accordingly. God only knows what makes some people do such atrocious things, Froggie. Karen

oh my goodness. I have never heard of such a thing. I understand that having a baby can be hard and definitely costly but there are places where you can give up your baby at hospitals without anyone knowing or any convictions or anything. How can you kill an innocent baby and sit there and look at the body? Not only that, but try to flush it down the toilet! That is sick. I hope they get counseling for it!

Yes, you're right. This is nothing but a mess. I guess that couple needs to be imprisoned for what they have done. That was an exact example of violation of the human rights. Yes, it was. Fetus is also considered as human being and that it deserves to be given the right to live and see the beauty of this world. It was not actually my first time to hear about this kind of news but I just couldn't understand why people tend to do something like this. What I can do for now is to just hope that they will be given some punishment for what they did so that they will be able to realize the crime of killing their own child.
