Unimagineable grief and guilt. Perhaps no 2 worse feelings to have together.

“Unimagineable grief and guilt. Perhaps no 2 worse feelings to have together.”

His worst feeling was having to spend 30 years in jail.

Left his daughter in car for 3 1/2 hours in 109 degree temperature as he went inside his house to watch porn.

“So sad”

What is sad is he killed his daughter. His death is not sad.

They are both sad outcomes. I swear the callousness on FR makes me sick sometimes.

LOL! Here is a quarter. Go call someone who cares.

Why did Jesus weep.

If it was a mom they’d have given her flowers, probation and therapy.

I recently watched one the police bodycam of this on YouTube. Tragic. He apparently left the child in the car intentionally with air on and it eventually quit. Then he lied to the cops.

Here’s a link if you dare watch.

If people didn’t read the article, or know the background, this headline and snippet could easily make you feel sorry for the guy. But once you know what a horrible father he was, and that he was fully culpable for the death of his child, it’s hard not to think “good riddance.”

Jesus wept at the grave of his friend, Lazarus. It’s in the book of John, 11th chapter.

this place is full of sinners that do not see the glass house that they live in... it’s not the rocks that others throw that should scare them it’s the fact at any moment they can walk through a wall and have there world come crashing down around them

This is too true. I'm as much of a hard ass on crime as the next person, more so than many but an accident is just an accident, unless there's evidence that the father did this deliberately. Well, he's paid the price now.

By the way, callousness, as a trait, undermines whatever points a poster may make on just about anything.

But WHY did Jesus weep? I might need to do a dive into that some time. Jesus knew that he was going to raise him from the dead.

Did Jesus weep because:

He was going to bring Lazarus back into the sinful world?
He foresaw His own death?
Feeling sad for all of Lazarus’ friends and loved ones?
Sad because they had so little belief in Jesus?
Sad because there is death in the world?
All of the above?
Many more reasons?
