Dead toddler was dumped along freeway

March 19, 2009

A toddler whose mother said the girl had been abducted during a violent attack was dumped near a San Fernando Valley freeway, according to L.A.

County sheriff's homicide detectives who are investigating the 18-month-old girl's death. [Updated 4 p.m.: An earlier version of this post said the girl was 30 months old. The Sheriff's Department reports that she was 18 months old.]

Authorities said the body was dumped near the 5 Freeway sometime in the last 24 hours. The Sheriff's Department spent most of last night trying to find the child.

But detectives found several inconsistencies in the mother's story and received information that suggested Emma Leigh Barker was in Mission Hills and was dead.

The mother is cooperating with investigators and is not now a suspect. But Lt. Pat Nelson told reporters that might change as the investigation continues.

Yes, they are. Had a best friend (RIP) who worked with SEVERELY emotionally and sexually abused children. She said, “There are monsters...and they are giving birth to children every day. They, ultimately, end up with me so I can love and help them.” I’ll never forget that.

Yes, they are.
I would have given anything to be able to have children, and then I read something like this.

“But if they make a mistake, I don’t want them punished with a baby,” Obama said.
