Perhaps I’ll be in the minority here, but I think this a tragic incident. Those women will likely never forgive themselves.
Good thing the child did not find some drain cleaner.
The 2 of them combined have the IQ of a turnip.
It’s hard to find the words to describe the revulsion we feel about this. I can’t find words. To say that some people shouldn’t have children doesn’t convey the right opinion. To say that they deserve prison doesn’t convey it either. What a damn shame that some idiots are responsible for children.
Article should have said blood alcohol level of .680 instead of .068.
Do I need to look?
I remember when my dad caught me “smoking” a cigarette when I was a child. He then made me smoke (inhale) a cigarette. That did put me off of them for a time. I’m sure these were stupid, ignorant women who wanted to discourage the child by giving her a hangover. While I don’t believe they intended to harm the child, they killed her just the same and must pay.

In college we had a fire alarm and had to evacuate the building. One fellow was so drunk he had to be carried out. He did eventually wake up and of course remembered nothing.
First degree murder implies intent to kill. The prosecutors better hope there’s a paper trail or a life insurance policy out on the child or this pair might be acquitted. Second degree or involuntary manslaughter would seem more appropriate.
Waiting to hear what Joy Reid has to say about how white supremacy made them do it. So sad that this poor child ended up under the care of these monsters.
O.M.G. What a couple of idiots.
My daughter took a sip at about that age and that was all she needed to know not to do it again.
This is totally despicable. Both of them should burn in hell for what they put that child through.
Nitpicking: I wish news stories about alcohol did not always compare blood alcohol levels to a legal limit. The legal limit is for driving a vehicle. It only matters when you get pulled over. Any other time it is basically meaningless.
Alcohol is a poison. The amount of alcohol that can be survived depends on how quickly your liver can make enzymes to break alcohol down. It is different for everyone. Children don’t make alcohol enzymes nearly as fast as adults and heavy drinkers make them much faster than average normal people.
That poor child.
Both women now charged with first-degree murder
***Good. God rest that poor child’s soul.
just think, some guy actually knocked up China’s mom.
How in the world did they get a 4yo to drink half a bottle of Whiskey? What size bottle was it? Most kids would fight any attempt to drink it. It’s harsh. Burns going down, tastes nasty..how did they get that baby to drink half a bottle of any size???
