Should they get life without parole or be put on death row for lethal injection?

This is just a sad story and honesty my heart goes out to the family

I would like to see their tails run off for three hours. Sometimes I think that people should be punished with exactly the same thing that was ok for them to deal out. I do however think that they should have to live a while with what they done...A public spotlight on their crime. It makes me sick that anyone can treat a child with cruelty..especially their own flesh and blood.

Personally stories like this always seem to amaze me how many times people are doing things like this, and no one really seems to notice or do anything about it. If she was making her run around outside with no water, etc. how could someone have not seen this and tried to step in? But to allow it is unreal, and things like this need to be prevented and stopped. I know the economy, etc. is getting Bad but come on what happened to Loving a Child and treating them with Love and respect?

I think they should get the same treatment that they showed that child. Kill them like they killed that little girl. After all at 9 years old she shouldn't be punished like that! They killed that little girl, so don't show them any mercy either!

They probably were abusing her. That's so F***ed up and WRONG.. There should be outrage over this (I hope there is) Running as a punishment is one thing (although there are always better ways to punish a child when need be) but without water? That's asking for the child to drop of heat exhaustion or dehydration amongst many other things. Its crazy that people witnessed it too I can't believe what people do nowadays. I agree and "eye for an eye" and if I were the Mother that gave birth to that baby you'd better bet the grandmother and the step mom wouldn't make it to court at all, they'd be 6 feet under and burning in hell. Pissed.

My husband called me today at lunch and told me about this, it is sad, and just horrible. This little girl didn't deserve that, NO CHILD deserves that. After hearing the story I had a feeling they were abusing her as well. And you know what, kids are suppose to sneak chocolate and candy, they are suppose to be kids. Who the hell made them drill sergeant?!

They won't get either one, I bet...

No I don't think your being cruel! Honestly that's what I think should be done to them too! All because of a damn candy bar. I mean my kids of ate stuff after being told no but I have never made them do that. Its called punishment that actually fits the behavior and what they choose is no way in means a punishment. Its cruelty and abuse. So Yes I agree they should too have to run outside for 3 hours without water. Then they can suffer what that poor little girl had to and know what its like. For the poor father having to decide to do that is heartbreaking, no father should have not had to do that. No child should not have to be punished and abused in that way.

mommyboo: The Bible says "an eye for an eye..., but vengence is mine, sayeth the Lord. I believe that either way, these cruel people will get a just punishment for what they did to that poor little girl. If they get lethal injection, then they die and I feel certain that they will spend eternity burning in the lake of fire. If they get life without parole, their lives will be filled with torture for all of eternity (first by humans, then by God). Regardless of what other criminals are imprisoned for, they tend to take a real dim view of people who commit crimes against the elderly and children. They seem to dole out their own justice on those who have caused harm to the defenseless children and older people. I am sure we will hear stories of these women being beaten or killed in prison.

I think they should have done to them exactly what they did to that little angel!! Poor girl, I hope she is at peace. I also know those two will get exactly whats coming to them. I think people that hurt children are demons and they deserve any punishment they get. But they should also have to run for 3 hours without water and I would make them do it in a desert! Sorry this makes me so angry!
