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.
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.

This addiction had to be developing over some time.

There's the victim.
Son of the perp.
Very sadly pitiful . . . this little boy should be the poster child for the wall.
Even a familys pet is treated with more concern than this child!
Dad(perp), girlfriend, grandmother - no one cared if this child lived or died, just no call for help!
