TWO WOMEN MICROWAVE THEIR BABIES!!!

Tweet

I came across these two articles and am so disgusted, how can someone do this to children!?!?! On the morning of 23 September 1999, Joseph Anthony Martinez, father of one-month-old Joseph Lewis Martinez, woke at 5.30am and found 20-year-old Elizabeth Renee Otte, Joseph Jr's mother, lying next to him in bed. He was surprised he hadn't been awoken in the night by his son as he normally was. He went to his son's cot but found it empty. After searching the house Joseph Snr asked Elizabeth if she knew where the child was but she appeared "not in her right mind", according to court evidence. She told him she had left the baby in his cot. She then had an epileptic fit. It was one of 50 she had suffered in the previous few months. The fits were caused by her not taking her medication while carrying Joseph Jr. Joseph Snr called the police, who began searching the house with friends of the family who had also turned up to help. Eventually, Joseph Snr's younger sister and Otte's best friend, Alina Martinez, discovered Joseph Jr stuffed inside the 18in-wide microwave around 6am. He was wearing a Winnie the Pooh romper suit and was stiff and covered in blisters. Experts determined he probably died after about 10 minutes in the microwave, by which time his blood temperature would have risen to 106oF. Elizabeth told police the last time she recalled being with her son was at 1am, when feeding him. She entered an 'Alford plea' to a charge of involuntary manslaughter - which meant she didn't have a trial or have to admit guilt, but accepted there was enough evidence to convict her - and was sentenced to five years in prison. WHAT THE HECK!! 5YEARS!!!! Dayton Mother Charged in Baby's Death Nov 28 2006 2:35PM DAYTON, Ohio (AP) - A microwave is suspected to have killed a month-old girl last year who had a high body temperature, and her mother has been charged in the death, authorities said Tuesday. China Arnold, 26, was arrested at her home Monday on a charge of aggravated murder, more than a year after she brought her dead baby to a hospital on Aug. 30, 2005, police said. The absence of external burn marks on Paris Talley and high-heat internal injuries support the idea that the baby was put in the microwave, said Ken Betz, director of the Montgomery County coroner's office. "We have reason to believe, and we have some forensic evidence that is consistent with our belief, that a microwave oven was used in this death," he said. This is so sick!!!!
