So, what's the deal now? Did they do it? Did they NOT do it? The kid is still, afaik, in intensive care with minimal renal function.

This doesn't happen from tripping over a skateboard. Did the parents do it? Has the kid been questioned by the cops without the parents being present?

The thing that is galling about these types of issues in our day in age is, everyone seems to be a liar, and by so doing you can actually stand a chance of getting off, scot-free.

Just consider the JonBenet Ramsey case, and you'll see what I mean.

"Naturally, we are so sorry about what has happened to this boy, but we maintain that once all the facts come out, our clients will be exonerated. They'll be found not guilty once the facts come out, and we just ask the public to wait until the facts are brought forth," said Jerald Finney, the Thompson's attorney.

Buying time. "Presumed innocent" is too good a deal to just walk away from. Looking for a lesser charge to plead to probably.

Joshua and Caleb Thompson have been charged with injury to a child, a first-degree felony. If found guilty, the men could be sentenced from five years to life in prison.
