Clearly we need to bring back public hangings or firing squads (or something). This is beyond horrific.

Things like this seem to be happening with increased frequency. Evil most certainly exists.

Repent and belive the Good News, folks. Your only way out is Jesus. Seek Him while He may still be found.

I can't help wondering if it is just being reported more or if it's actually happening more. I also can't help wondering if the frequent reporting only exacerbates the problem by putting ideas into the minds of these sickos.

Absolutely horrible. Prayers for the Mother and her baby... may they be together in Heaven. Other than prayers... words fail me.

If they convict on the murder of the infant it establishes once again fetal personhood.

Uh, clearly you didn't read any further than the headline. From the article: "Annette Morales-Rodriguez, 33, faces one count each of first-degree intentional homicide while armed and first-degree intentional homicide of an unborn child while armed."

It happens about once a year or less. There have been 13 recorded cases since 1987.

Interesting. So what culture was on display when Darci Pierce did it?

What about when Lisa Montgomery did it?

Or when Effie Goodson did it?

OK, OK I recant. Every time I’ve seen baby stealing, it’s usually been a latina perp.

No, I DID read the whole article - just didn’t make the connection of 1st degree intentional homicide being the same as 1st degree murder. Duh - need to go back to school.

There have been approximately 13 cases of this kind of fetus stealing/murder reported in the last 25 years that I can find. Of those, two of the killers have had Spanish surnames. Feel free to prove otherwise. You can start here.
