let's set his bail at $200,000 so he can borrow $20K from his pals and use the ten percent down same as cash plan, get out of jail, and create more mayhem!
Certainly the rib injuries look suspicious, but I'm surprised anyone gets charged with Shaken Baby Syndrome now, given some of the recent studies that indicate it's not a real diagnosis.
Um, TVDinner, read your link. It says that their study claims that bleeding from the eyes alone might not be sufficient to diagnose shaken baby syndrome. But it also says, "However, they say that if all three elements - brain damage and bleeding, and bleeding from the eyes - are present, this is powerful evidence that undue force has been applied. "
Ugh, 4 months old and already has brain injury and repeated rib injuries? What an asshole. I have a 7-month old and am practically paralyzed with fear every time I carry her that I will drop her or something. /angry
@2, That's a pretty bold statement. You don't think a subdural hematoma in a 4-month old is that serious? The article didn't say SBS isn't a real diagnosis, just that the specifc eye injury in question isn't necessarily always an indicator of SBS.
9 to 12 years?! Excuse me??? For what amounts to attempted murder of a 4-month-old?? For a pattern of abuse resulting in, "most likely", blindness and brain damage????!
Can't we just kill the fucker? Slowly and publicly, so the sick fucks out there who like to beat on kids can see what they'll get if they keep it up? That doesn't seem cruel or unusual to me.... at the moment.......
I agree that 9-12 years seems light, particularly given the previous convictions. I don't have any convictions for anything...can I shake a baby half to death and only get, say, 3-4 years? If so, I may have to readjust my priorities in life.
They should cut his dick off and stuff it in his mouth, crush his balls in a vice, hook him up to an industrial agitator until he bleeds from the eyes, fracture each of his ribs one at a time, gouge his eyes out with a spoon, and THEN kill him.
I wonder if he's any relation to Virginia Haugen, the Auburn city councilwoman? Wouldn't be terribly surprised if that particular apple fell from the same tree.
Give me 10 minutes alone in a room with this piece of shit and I will kick in his fucking ribs and bash his brain in to the wall. Then I would rip his balls off so he can't have another kid to abuse.
"Not a real diagnosis"? Don't make things up, OK?

Just kill the fucker?
That's an inexcusably horrible thing to say!
