Prosecutors: Mom, boyfriend beat, killed child, made up kidnapping story
Chicago Tribune ^ | April 20, 2013 | Naomi Nix and Matt Walberg

A 22-year-old Maywood woman admitted she and her boyfriend beat her 1-year-old son with a belt and plastic hangers and left him to die on their bathroom floor, prosecutors said in court Saturday.

The couple then disposed of the child's lifeless body in a backpack before devising an elaborate cover-up which included pretending that the child had been abducted, prosecutors alleged in court.

A Cook County judge ordered Lakeshia Baker, 22, held without bail.

Obama's son and daughter.

Obama voters.

Holder's people.

I cannot compare these two to animals. Animals are more civilized.

God rest the infant's soul.

How would the “academics” say it? “You can tell a lot about a society from the way it treats its children.” We murder them in the womb. Just out of the womb and keep murdering them until they are big enough to fight back.

Nothing really surprises me anymore, but once in a while I do read something so awful that it can sicken even me.

These two and their actions qualify.

She blamed 3 Hispanic men.

Does that make her a racist?

There's not an animal on the planet that would do such a thing.

Maywood USED to be a beautiful town, filled with Italians and run by the mob. You can’t even enjoy the Italian Fest there any longer. Thanks Chicago for farming all those rat infested Robert Taylor hommies out to the burbs.

Saw this story on my local news and made me want to vomit.

They left that baby in the river.

“Prosecutors: Mom, boyfriend beat, killed child, made up kidnapping story”

If that’s the actual headline that appeared in the Tribune, it is dead on wrong. My grandmothers, my mother, my wife, my daughter-in-law, lots of other good women throughout the world are “moms”. I can assure you from in depth analysis of less than 30 seconds that that piece of s#it is nobody’s definition of a mom.

The males of many other species kill the young so they can breed again. Even females well kill their own young.

Lakeshia. That’s all I needed to know.

The photos are indeed telling. Those two black eyes might be one heck of a lot worse and that punk with the curls might look a bit balder as well. There is no room in this world for animals like that.

The two people who did this were the parents of the child, I take it.

If a male lion or even a monkey kills the progeny of another male he’s doing it so that his own offspring will take their place. (Just as little children are often the victims of the mother’s boyfriend, who isn’t the father, btw.)

I can’t think of any animal parents, where both the male and female kill their own offspring.

Correction:

I was undr the impression the couple were the parents, but now I see she had two children and the boyfriend was the father of neither -

Scott, who is not the father of either child in the household, told authorities that Baker regularly beat the child and that it sometimes embarrassed him when friends were over. He said he never did anything to prevent the beatings, prosecutors said.

Wait a minute. If the child was less than one year old, isn’t it still covered by the “Gosnell rule”, still eligible for abortion.
And I’m sure Obama’s words to the couple would be “God Bless You”

>>I was under the impression the couple were the parents

Why in the world would you think that, or that she even knows who the father is?

So many place no value on life therefore, it's easy to take it. This is what happens when babies are nothing more than a byproduct of a behavior that's glorified at every turn. No God, no religion, no morals, no family values......this is what we get.

I predict the President of the United States will not be attending a memorial service for this child....nor will the Governor of Illinois...not the Mayor of Chicago.....nor the Mayor of Maywood....nor the father of the little boy.

Of course, some of the townspeople will build a little, temporary shrine for the little boy.....it is a cultural thing and they get a lot of practice but no permanent and positive benefits result from the ritual.
