Seems like the judge is deeming it neglect and rightly so in my opinion.
I knew a man who believed like these people, that it’s a sin to go to a doctor.
His wife got pneumonia, rather than going to a doctor he prayed for her to get better...she didn’t, she died. He as much as killed her.
I knew another guy who also felt this way, his wife was pregnant, complications arose, (they gave birth at home, rather than in a hospital-she was 42, so it was a high-risk birth) and rather than calling an ambulance they prayed that she survive.
She didn’t survive, she died...I also consider that to be murder.
These people are notorious, so much blood is on their hands from their children dying from simple illnesses that a shot of antibiotics or doctor’s care could have solved...something needed to be done, and I’m glad Oregon’s finally beginning to prosecute these homicides.
And I am VERY pro-life! The two have nothing to do with each other.
