Greensburg Man Charged With Raping 5-Month-Old

POSTED: 4:01 pm EST March 7, 2008
UPDATED: 5:49 pm EDT March 10, 2008
GREENSBURG, Pa. -- An 18-year-old Greensburg man has been charged with raping a baby who police said was left in his care.

Police said Scott Wade Smith raped his girlfriend's 5-month-old girl Friday morning at a home in the 500 block of Highland Avenue, where several people, including the infant's mother, were living.

Authorities said the infant suffered severe injuries and was flown to Children's Hospital of Pittsburgh, where surgery was performed.

Police said the girl was crying so hard she nearly stopped breathing.

According to police, Smith made a story about the baby choking on a crayon, but paramedics didn't find anything in her throat. So, they decided to take her to Westmoreland Hospital, which is where doctors found blood inside her diaper.

"Doctors immediately notified Greensburg police, who headed to the house with a search warrant," said Capt. George Seranko of the Greensburg Police Department.

There, police said they found a blood-soaked towel in a box in Smith's bedroom, along with four red-stained baby wipes.

The mother was in class at her high school when the alleged attack occurred, police said.

Smith was charged with five felonies, including rape of a child, causing seriously bodily injury, involuntary deviate sexual intercourse and endangering the welfare of children. He is being held at the Westmoreland County Prison on $1 million bail.

Police said rape of a child with serious bodily injury under the age of 13 is punishable by life in prison, and they are asking the district attorney to push for that sentence.

A preliminary hearing is scheduled for Thursday. It's unknown whether Smith has a lawyer yet.

Amen to that post. And this my friends is what liberalism gets you. Pity for little hitlers like this 18 yr old running around seeking whatever sick fetish turns them on.

Don’t bother explaining the sky is blue. It’s probably a waste of time.

Agree. Was this the boyfriend of the mother?

is the guy from post #17 actually insinuating that you might be interested in doing stuff like this?

I wasn't going to dignify his insinuation with a response

Thankfully, it's an anonymous board, he might be eating his teeth for even implying it

Does anyone know if this baby survived? For months this story has been tearing me apart...and also not knowing if she lived and is out of pain. If anyone knows, please post.

I personally don’t believe that the framers ever imagined psychopaths like this. I’m sure it happened, but the consequences were outside of the legal system, as they should be today.

During the colonial era, states had the power to regulate their own societies. While there was no federally established religion, states had the broad general powers, and the right to provide tax support for religions within the state, even though liberal trends of the day started to put an end to the colonial prosecutions and whippings for blasphemy or non-attendance at church. Almost all schools read the Bible daily and said the Lord's prayer. Thomas Jefferson, our third president, was also the superintendent of schools in DC, mandated that all pupils be issued a Bible and a hymnal as reading texts.

These types of people act like their lives are some kind of movie, that embracing evil isn't real, and won't affect them. They are exempt from the history of mankind, and can flirt with evil and go unpunished. Yeah, right, look at the results. And their kind are literally EVERYWHERE now. I've never seen anything like it.

The thing that bothers me so much about the entertainment industry, with its slasher, gore and kinky sex offerings, is their frequent claim that it doesn't affect society -- it's just a matter of personal choice. Meanwhile, the same film, music and television media are used for advertising, and the results (how many people are buying the product offered) are measured and counted with great precision.
