Sorry, BIG, if you already got this one and I missed it...


Justin Malphus was kicked by his mother one day and taken to his favorite fast-food restaurant the next.

For Christmas, the 5-year-old boy got a punch in the stomach.

A few months later, his mother slammed him into a refrigerator and tossed his broken body into an algae-covered swimming pool, ending what prosecutors say was hell on earth for an autistic child...

I am filled with such a rage right now that I cannot stop crying. What is wrong with today's society!!! Apparantly the proper action to take is open a file and take notes when abuse is noted. I think NOT!!!! I do not know how other's states are; but, in NEbraska we are pushing for more stringint laws to protect the children. I know I probably make no sense and I am sorry; but, there has to be an answer and we have to start making sure the child protection service's are held accountable also when they drop the ball.
