UGH. Makes me sick.

This really made me want to throw up this morning.

Maybe edit your post title and post to reflect that reading this will seriously ruin anyone's day? Because this story was terrible to begin with and has crossed the line into ... something really extra *insert some more strong adjectives here* appalling.

Maybe @elmoali can hook this thread up with some warnings if dmlk413 has stepped away from the computer for a while?

ASmallWonder · June 2014

dmlk413 sorry for honing in on your thread but it's a really sensitive topic with a vague subject line

Sorry for ruining everyone's day. I posted it because we were just talking about this last week. Thanks for editing it @elmoali.

The Parenting Thread on this topic has some other "breaking news" type stories about the investigation ...

It's just so disgusting. And disturbing. And I really need to quit clicking on/reading these things ... but at this point I really want to know what actually happened.

Honestly, if he wanted to be without his kid so much, there are other options. Adoption is the first one that comes to mind. H won't talk about it at all because he says that this is torture and that the man tortured his child. I tend to agree.

Omg, this story is so awful. The computer search is horrifying. It makes me sick thinking about it. Nothing is being said about the mother?

This literally makes me want to vomit. I hadn't heard about the computer searches until right now and now I have the chills. This is probably the worst form of torture I can imagine. I honestly think shooting the baby would have been a kinder way to kill his child. I really wonder what the motive was? Life insurance maybe? I wonder if he had a policy out on the boy. I have been thinking about this case so much since I heard about it. That man is lucky he is in jail. If I were his wife I'd literally kill him with my bare hands.

I actually live a few miles from where all this happened and from the get go, the police have said that this is not a simple case of negligence and there's more to this than meets the eye. We'll just have to wait and see.

I'm not an emotional person but everything about this has really hit me. First it was just thinking about the accidents that happen and putting myself in the parents' shoes and I was totally wrecked. Now I can't even think about grasping a parent doing this on purpose. It makes me so angry if he really went through doing that all so it could look like an "accident" and he could be kid-free but still get a lot of sympathy. Knowing about his internet searches is even more gut wrenching. I just don't understand people....

I'm very curious to see what else comes out. They've insinuated that there's a lot left to the story that media doesn't know yet.

I want to go scoop my LO up out of his crib and just hug him all night! This is so awful.

dmlk413 · June 2014

I read something that indicated maybe he had already killed the boy and tried to leave him in the car to cover it up. Honestly, I really hope that is the case because I will lose all faith in humanity if this man purposefully tortured his son to death by leaving him in a hot car all day. I just can't bring myself to think that some one would intentionally do something so horrible.

JessicaKS · June 2014

@dmlk413‌ the autopsy proved he died of hyperthermia. So they think he did die inside the car and that it wasn't a cover up.

That's what I'm wondering about, too. If my husband did that I would be (beyond) upset that he didn't just tell me having a kid was too much for him so we could part ways and I could raise the kid on my own. I'm really interested in her, too.
