Here are the video caps from the WNDU website:

So, it this "big brother" run amok? Or is it a good result from the current technology?

I vote for the latter.

I noticed on the second frame of this tape that the date it occured was the 13. It has been a week since the incident occured.

At this late a date even if she is caught it will be difficult for the prosecutor to build a case as any bruising to the child would have disappeared. I use to work for a law firm and it is very hard to build a case from a grainy surveillance tape. Which is why if I read the article correctly she hasn't actually been charged with anything and is just wanted for questioning.

Don't get me wrong I not saying I condone what she did or think she should get away with it.

The thing that bothers me is that she may have seriously injured the child and that is the reason she fled. Why would she even had reason to think the police would even be looking for her and be worried enough to flee?

The car is a Toyota Sequoia based upon what I see. I hope this bitch get beaten just as badly and her girl is put in a home with love.

I'm all for disciplining children, but what this woman did was way out of line.

I don't know, but I think this is a step in the direction of having big brother watching our every move! Survailance cameras set up in neighborhoods and homes next!

Yeah I saw a bit of the video on the news last night, and didn't see it in detail enough to tell whether the woman was actually hitting the kid, or hitting at something else in the car. Right after the flailing and whaling, the kid appears to jump up against the back seat-- a kid hit that hard wouldn't be so energetic. I dunno, maybe the pros saw more detail in that video...

I first saw a part of the video on Foxnews.com, and it looked to me as if she was just doing the typical couple of swats on the rear thing. However after viewing CBS's video its obvious this woman went way over the line. Undoubtly she should not have children(assuming she is the mother).

But I am kind of perplexed about something, in the CBS video the camera is clearly following this woman to her car(not a fixed view of the whole parking area), so does this mean this has happened before and they wanted to get it on tape, and if that is the case why in the H*ll didn't they report it sooner. And if it isn't the case I have to wonder why the person operating the camera chose her?

Police found the car and talked to family members, but they called the family less than helpful.

'Less then helpful'? Don't police carry batons anymore?

"The...police recently received a surveillance video..."

I just noticed the date on the video, almost a week old and they still haven't found this scum. I fear the worst for the little girl. With the publicity (and the in-laws' refusal to cooperate) this trailer trash has probably become even more invisible and devious about eluding capture.

Mankind is truly insane.
