"...after DHS found.."
Please, someone, tell me this isn't the Department of Homeland Security.
And, FWIW, my younger sister, around the same age as this girl, was found by my Mom, holding a pillow over the face of my youngest sister in her crib. It was blamed on jealousy and with 4 sisters a few years apart, I can only imagine we we're all vying for attention from my Mom (my Dad was off in Korean War) and Lord knows we all came up short at any given time. BTW, we all lived! :) My sister, the PillowPusher, was shortly thereafter found to have a hole in her heart and was one of the first open heart surgeries at Mayo Clinic, and shortly thereafter contracted polio and was in an iron lung and the rest of her life (she's still living) she had petit mal epilespy in her teens, had bilateral partial mastectomies, twice, for removal of benign tumors, in her late 20's and again in her early 30's, has plastic jaws as a result of severe TMJ, had to undergo early hysterectomy, developed spondylolethesis (sp?) of her spine and is presently dealing with post-polio syndrome.
I mention this for those who believe in karma ;)

You're right. I have a relative who (when she was two) bit the little toe off her newborn baby brother while he was nursing. She was farting around under the blanket, like little kids do, and the baby wouldn't continue nursing or stop crying. I can only imagine the horror their parents felt when they realized what had happened right in front of them. (BTW, the toe was saved, she got a spanking and now it's a family joke.)
