2007 infant and child deaths

The child homicides in the following four posts were omitted from the Homicide Report earlier in the year because, as is often the case with infant deaths, they were not immediately finalized as homicides. HR is slowly adding to its archives cases missed during the year.

These entries for children killed this year, and previously omitted from HR, were reported and written by Times reporter Jack Leonard. HR is extremely grateful for Leonard's assistance.

[LOVE OF A MOTHER]

What is it with these women who leave their children with their current boyfriends? Do they not know that you cannot trust anyone in this world? As for the cowardly bastards doing this, they are animals. What can a child of any age do to you that will make you beat them? I'm a mother of a 2 yr old, and not once in my childs life have I thought of beating him. I hope these animals (both the boyfriends and so called mothers) rot in jail. They should be given the death penalty for killing innocent children. If you cannot handle being a mother or father and you know you don't have the patience, use some damn birth control, you can obtain free birth control through your community clinics....Know the consequences of your actions before you act.
