Child with Down’s syndrome found caged and eating her own skin (video)
Examiner ^ | 05/04/2011 | Robert Herriman

Posted on 05/05/2011 9:47:17 AM PDT by Responsibility2nd

When Virginia police went to the home of Shannon and Brian Gore, it was to serve a warrant in a burglary investigation. However, what they found in the singlewide trailer was quite disturbing.

According to a WTKR News video released Wednesday, the 6-year-old daughter of the couple was found caged and eating flakes of her own skin. The parents claimed the child caused too much turmoil in the home and suffered from cerebral palsy and Down’s Syndrome.

There is disagreement between the Gores as too how long the girl has been caged. He says since last summer, she says for two months.

The child was taken to the hospital described as emaciated and is in ‘guarded’ condition.

And that’s not all…

As police continued their investigation, they found a gruesome discovery: the remains of a child buried beneath a shed. The identity of this child has yet to be determined.

Well, I guess it’s appropriate that now these two sociopaths get to spend some time in cages.

It’s unfortunate that the only requirement for procreation is genitalia.

Are these two inbreds?

I live in Norfolk and this is the biggest story (other than Osama) on the local news all week. The man stated that the child had been kept there since last summer, the woman said a couple of weeks only.

I am not to judge, and everyone is innocent until proven guilty, but..........

These two need to FRY.

Those MFers need to be put to death. They live just 5 miles up the road from me. The remains of another child were found under their shed. It’s about as shocking as it can get.

The local paper here, the Daily Press described the girl as she was taken away... though she’s 5 years old, she’s so small and emaciated, she fit into the crook of the officer’s arm. I just can’t wrap my mind around how people could do this to any child, let alone their own.

Hi fellow Tidewater-er!
Saw this last night on the local news - unfathomable!
And yes, while they are “innocent until...”, the police found the body of their other child under the trailer...
I’m thinking their “innocence” ain’t there...

The witness in the video says the woman said that the youngest child was her first so it sounds like she did not intend for the 6yo to live?

I’m sorry; forgive me; but, there are times when I believe courts SHOULD be able to impose forced sterilization.

Yes, I know: “reform and rehabilitation” is always “possible”. Sorry, the risks are not worth it.
