Where was the mother while he was beating her for an hour? A normal mother would have been on the phone with 911 in the first second.
call me an abnormal mother cause i would have had a gun to his head in 2 seconds or less, then again maybe i would save the ammo and snap his neck (it only takes 8 pounds of pressure). thank God my 2nd hubby loves my son like his own child, but i refused to settle for less.
