OK - I guess we will see tomorrow if she turns herself in.

Yup.
Here's a question: If we're all wrong here do we owe her anything? Or-- can we just splash people's names and photos all over the country with slanderous accusations any time we feel like it because of a bad camera angle and bad light?
Let me be perfectly clear: I'm completely willing to believe that she beat the child, and if so, that she should pay dearly for that and the child be put in another home.
But I'm also getting pretty sick of some of the attitudes I'm seeing: Guilty until proven innocent. Journalists hyping local news up into national feeding frenzies. Sloppy reporting that leads people to wrong conclusions that are never retracted.
Oh well. We'll see.
