Martha Toogood Is Sick Now
Various | Sep. 25, 2002 | Self

Posted on 09/25/2002 12:05:15 PM PDT by A Vast RightWing Conspirator

Since the Martha Toogood's story is being dissected into the most minute details, here's one aspect not yet discussed:

- Martha gets a spanking from her mommy (some call it a savage beating). Whatever that was, it turns out that not one doctor, not even the prosecutor could find any sign of abuse such as bruises, cuts, broken bones, missing limbs or rigor mortis. In fact there are nude pictures apparently showing Martha as intact as ever.

- The state takes Martha under its own loving wing and... MARTHA IS SICK NOW!!! In fact, Martha is so sick, not even her mother can be allowed to see her.

Can anyone explain what's going on here? Is Martha better off with the authorities in charge? Or is she a victim of the authorities loving care. Perhaps too much love got Martha sick?

So are your saying more harm is done by separating a child from parents that grift for a living. Then leaving the child with the family to learn the trade better and when the time is right marry the girl to another traveler to carry on the tradition? Say what you will about gays, lesbians and swingers but at least they don't teach their kids to steal for a living.

Are the Amish out there cheating and scamming non-Amish? The answer is no.

I am well aware that they sit on very expensive farmland. They earned it and work it honestly. The land is so expensive in Lancaster that their offspring have to move to Ohio and Kentucky to buy afordable land.

Add to that 3 vehicles registered in her name in 3 different states. Husband with 2 names (prolly has more) and criminal record in 6 states. He's due in Whitefish Montana for a court appearance.

I'm sure many of his victims recognize this scammer now that he's on national TV.

I was one of those kids. So, now you can say you met one.

Yes, that's just what her mommy gave her, too much love. I have been going about it from the wrong angle all these years. I should have been whacking the hell out of my girls instead of dancing with them. What could I have possibly been thinking?

You punish the ones that commit the crimes. Try that for a change.

Did they do an DNA test to make sure she is the same child?

How would that work? Do they have a DNA sample from the video? This is a highly inbred group, and if the child in custody is a substitute, she's almost certainly a close cousin. DNA testing her and the parents would probably prove that they're related, but not whether they are or are not the parents of this particular child.

She'll be a lot sicker if she's given back to the "Toogoods" and they marry her off at 11. The gypsies don't have exactly a great reputation when it comes to their kids.

Our weekend place is near an Amish community and I have visited/done business with Amish so many times. Never never have I seen anything but bright, happy, well fed children and never have I heard of any Amish beating on their kids like this gypsy did. And they don't do scams on their neighbors like the gypsies either!

"Is that what her record is? How about providing a link."

That is her record as has been reported several times on various news programs, and ABC news link on Drudge. Her lawyer also confirmed she has a Texas shoplifting charge she "has to take care of."

Thanks for the information guys. I could have sworn I heard she had no record as far as they could tell. If what you guys are saying is true, then I do support looking into her financial status. I appreciate the comments.

I see that only Darnright had the guts to reply to this awesome post, Mr. Tator, and I see more submission than objection in that.

Folks just gotta get with the Common Tator Rule that the people get what they want. In this case, that's sweet mothers and happy, bruise-free babies.

I'm so glad my parents only swatted me with ideas. They ought be glad, too, for I only hit them back with ideas. No blood, so far.

I believe it was O'Rielly, tonight, who had a lawyer on, who said all three children may be taken away from the family! They both have a history of offences in several states, and the father said 'he' was brought up learning to cheat and steal!!
