ATLANTA — Vegan parents in Georgia were sentenced Wednesday to life in prison after their 6-week-old son died of malnutrition.

The baby, Crown Shakur, weighed only 3.5 pounds. He’d been fed mostly soy milk and apple juice. Vegans typically do not consume animal products.

Defense lawyers say the first-time parents did the best they could for their son while adhering to the strict lifestyle of vegans. They said Sanders and Thomas did not realize the baby — who was born in a bathtub at their home — was in danger until minutes before he died in April of 2004.

If your screwed up lifestyle is more important to you than the health of your newborn....you have no right to have kids in the first place IMHO!

I feel bad for the baby. Except, now he is in the arms of Jesus, getting fed and waited on by an angelic host. At least he didn’t grow up with these airheads to become another anti-troop protestor.
