Why does not not surprise me. It does not even shock me in the slightest.
No food in the home, spent all the money on drugs.
Let’s rent a wood chipper and gather around as this absolutely worthless waste of oxygen is slowly fed into it, feet first. I tell you, after reading this, I’d laugh and laugh as he screamed.
I am with you.
Meth heads generally don’t keep food in the house. No need for it.
Everything that could have gone wrong, did go wrong.
The father had been going down this road for a long time.
He had reached the point where the dope mattered more buying food for his son, or taking him to the hospital for help.
That’s a story where all the pillars of support have fallen.
At first I wondered, why would an eight year old of normal intelligence eat meth off of a dinner plate? Surely he is old enough to know better. Now I see it was because the poor boy had been starving. Where is CPS when you need them?
This addiction had to be developing over some time.
We are a nation of 330 million, and there's a lot of severely damaged people out there. It seems there's more every day. Its a wonder we aren't seeing 100X these stories.
I advocate for the decriminalization of drugs, but things like this make me hesitate.
The story of this poor boy has given me one of the biggest gut punches I’ve every gotten from a story about abused / neglected children.
Godspeed, little man.
What a horrible story. I hope this man lands in jail and never walks free on the planet again.
Seymour, Indiana. Hometown of John Cougar Mellonhead.
Because he knew what the kid had gotten into.
Sounds like grounds for at least 2nd degree murder.

Sad to say, CPS is possibly out running down calls of 10 year-olds walking “alone” to the neighborhood playground or some parents trying to opt out of the school district’s sex-ed classes, etc.
This is a very sad story. What a horrible life that child must have lived. And several adults seemed to have had a chance to save him. It is difficult to comprehend that lifestyle.
Very sadly pitiful . . . this little boy should be the poster child for the wall.
“Very sadly pitiful . . . this little boy should be the poster child for the wall.”
I don’t think a wall would have stopped Curtis Collman II.
But it may have slowed his supply of meth. As I understand it, a lot of it comes from south of the border
