I've been following this thread this afternoon, and I was in agreement with you that the video was not conclusive. FNC just showed the video up close and slowed down a little. The woman beat the hell out of that child.
The first slaps (open hand) and looked to be to the childs back and butt. After the slaps, she grab the kids hair and shook the kids head hard. The child then gets in the car seat and that is when the mother begins to punch the kid on or about the head. The kicks that you mentioned earlier looked to me to be from pain or the kid had been knocked senseless.
Very sad.

Her attorney just said, "She's remorseful, she resents it."

Well now, Rocket the attorney says that the mother is making her way to turn herself in to authorities.

Sadly - when it comes to a 30ish/late 20's? woman vs a 4 yr old innocent, the only proof i need is to find them, investigate and find out if there's something to this -wth is the family covering for!?
What do we do, wait until the child is dead? What was the woman checking over her shoulder for?
People can be sick and use children in horrific ways, maybe she (witch) thought having a sweet four yo with her would get her money from Kohl's.
i DO jump to conclusions when a child is at a seemingly high risk of sever injury and death.

Rocket just admitted her guilt during the interview.
To: alnick
I meant, "She regrets it." She did beat the child.

Hmm... OK. If she's essentially admitting it now (through her attorney), then that changes everything.
She's way sicker than most child abusers, if she can be that cold, cool, and calculating.

So she will turn herself and the child (or a child) in tomorrow. What bothers me is since she is a "traveler" and they travel in packs, she may try to pass another, healthy, child off as the daughter. These people work together and are very accomplished con artists.

and i would like proof you have a heart, a brain and any compassion.
hoping you have no kids!
To: Ramius
Her attorney said more damning things than any of us have said. He made no claim of innocence at all... Is volunteering his client for psychiatric evaluation and treatment to help with a plea bargain, and admitting she beat the kid without justifying or minimizing it.
To: Texaggie79
Can anyone find a link to this video? They showed it on FNC a few times and just at the end when the mom is leaning back out of the back seat, you can see the kids legs kicking happily like nothing happened. I'm confused.I agree.
You are confused.

While i don't agree with TXAGGIE on the statements made wrt this thread- this is a really callous statement on your part
wth is wrong with people!?
To: md2576; Ramius
That was a very gracious retraction of a flame! Not many are willing to back up and do that - You will be welcome here! We need more like you!
To: alnick
I do not think we will ever see this woman again.

i am very assertive with regard to this or any type of blatant abuse, i would have been shaking like hell, and maybe even puked, but i would have hauled ass over (securing my own kids) and done what i had to, even risking getting hit myself. i believe that this is violent abuse, not discipline, not corporal punishment.
i saw a man in lubbock (fresco exhibit) who seemed to be a hell of an uptight father, impatient, and possibly verbally abusive - but could not hear well enough, and if i had seen him lay a finger, abusively, on one of his four children - i would have thrown all my weight on him.
He seemed to be a mr. andrea yates type - scary, and i pray for his temper/enlightenment toward becoming a Godly man and father - not a tyrant-which he seemed to be.

It is not heartless to have not interpreted the video the way everybody else did.
