Damn that's hard to watch. If there's anything that could make me homicidal, it's someone hurting a little one like that - mine or anyone else's. I don't know how her dad got through it without strangling the life out of that evil S-O-B that killed her.

I know, it was brutal, I could barely make it through it. To see how full of life she was and then at the end, just a shell ( broken legs in the swing... God, that was so painful to see) of her joyous self... it killed me.

I think this is encouraging me to join a child advocacy group and be a personal advocate for a child.

That daddy has more restraint than I think I'd have been able to muster. I don't even have a kid and that makes me want to run those people over feet first with a steamroller.


Here's an embedded link for those of you that don't want to click off-site.

Thank you....

I tried to embed it.. but, duh... It didn't work for me.. I put it in the V's and it was blank. How did you do it?

But, I don't think I can watch it again.

Crap, I just watched it again... I just want to scream.

I think justice was served in that they are both in prison and fellow prisoners don't take kindly to child abusers.

To embed the video, you only put what's at the end of the Youtube url after the = sign (in this case it's "uWow42TCwzg") between the youtube tags that generate when you mash the button. If you put the whole url in there, it won't work.

Very sad, but the situation is unfortunately, not uncommon.

I think that's even more sad.

Anyone know why she was never in the care of her father?
(I know he was in the military, but I saw a wedding ring in the later photos. A wife or grandmother could have cared for her permanantly.)
