Cops: Boy, 7, Beat Baby Sister to Death Thursday, June 02, 2005 TAMPA, Fla. — A 7-year-old boy beat his baby half-sister to death with his fists, feet and a two-by-four because he was jealous of the attention the girl was receiving and because she would not stop crying, police said Wednesday.

culture of death vs. culture of life...
Searched and didn't find it.
Here's another post about it:

Good Lord. Awful. This child is seriously disturbed. He needs to be locked up.
Reminds me of Michael Myers.
Thanks, I searched and didn't find it.
There's more to this story.
I am wondering myself. I do not understand how a child could be that jealous to kill his baby sister.
Where was the mother when this little monster was doing his thing?
"What is wrong with children today..."
What's wrong with the PARENTS????
Yep, that's the real question. Kids don't do this unless there is something wrong at home, or they have real problems of another sort (like having been abused, autistic, or some other sort of injury).
in another room with a boyfriend/girlfriend, having intercourse, doing drugs... just not being a parent for sure. I look forward to hearing the names of the mother and father, having them well-published.
Exactly, this kid did not wake up this morning and decide to be a homicidal maniac, there had to be signs.
God almighty!
That's part of it, but there's more to it than just that. It's also the self-absorbed, self-indulgent attitudes of the baby boom generation that have been passed along to its descendants. It has reached such a critical mass that we are losing our humanity by the day.
I expect we'll find the kid's mother was working full time. The kid was starved for attention and his parent's own self-absorption taught him he was the only one that mattered. I hope the new car and the big house was worth it, Mom.
That's the first thing that I thought of. This kid is seriously disturbed. The parents had to have known this and should have gotten him help.

7 Called 'Persons Of Interest' In Death Of Tampa Baby
POSTED: 7:21 am EDT June 2, 2005
TAMPA, Fla. -- Police investigating the death of a 4-month-old boy have identified at least seven different people who cared for the infant in the 48 hours before he died "persons of interest," officials said Wednesday.
Teon Noel Thorpe died Sunday of serious head injuries, police spokeswoman Laura McElroy said.
The medical examiner ruled the infant's death a homicide. Charges have not yet been filed.
At least seven people, including his 25-year-old mother, day care workers and baby sitters, that had contact with the boy Friday night and early Saturday are considered witnesses and "persons of interest," McElroy said.
"This baby was passed around between seven adults in a short period of time in one evening. Sometime during that time period, the child received a very serious injury," McElroy said.
Several "have a history with (the Department of Children & Families) of abuse or neglect," she said.
According to police, Teon stayed with a baby sitter during the week. His mother picked up him Friday, but later asked her roommate to take the boy to another baby sitter. The roommate took Teon to that baby-sitter's house, but left the infant with a friend because the baby sitter was not at home.
The baby sitter later returned, and several more people visited the apartment throughout the night, McElroy said.
Two friends of the baby sitter took Teon into a room to sleep on a mattress. McElroy said the two women told police Teon rolled off the mattress and fell 8 to 10 inches onto the carpeted floor.
Paramedics were called to the apartment early Saturday morning, she said.
McElroy said Teon's injuries weren't consistent with a short fall and landing on a carpeted floor.

Apparently they were out and left the 7 year old alone with the baby. So, I guess they are as much at fault here as the monster of a child who did this.
You can't expect a generation that was brought up not to respect their Country, their Country's Flag, their God, elders, or anything else to produce anything but this kind of evil freak.
People who have no respect, no sense of honor or decency are worse than base beasts. At least animals have the excuse they lack the intellect to discern right from wrong.
A person without honor or respect is like an animal with only a will and mind to do evil.
