It was either frustration and anger, or hatred and sadism. Those are the choices. Right? Look, if you want to believe it was sadism, go ahead, I don't care. Neither you nor I have any power to bring this kid back or affect the sentences of the defendants. It is just my opinion that this boy was very difficult and these people were not equipped. They thought they could beat the brat out of him. They couldn't. Then they lost their crap and oops. I'm not suggesting they shouldn't be charged, convicted, and sentenced. I just think this is not sadists beating a little angel. I think this was people with short fuses who couldn't handle a very difficult teen.
Ok, just so we’re clear.
They were sadists. They called it "cousins boot camp."
Running a shower nozzle down a child’s throat is frustration and anger? That’s something that is premeditated.
