    Seems we just close the door on one episode of child abuse and up pops another case.
    I would be curious as to what caused the boy to die. Could he have been tied so tightly that the circulation was stopped or as mentionned, maybe the elements.
    I am praying that the other two children will be put in foster homes where they can get the proper care and love they deserve. To be exposed to this kind of brutality will only lead to the children learning to act the same way.
    So unbelievably sad, yet somewhere , at the time we read this, another child is being abused.

    Two couple' two other children, a seven-year-old and a nine-year-old, have been placed in the custody of the Department of Social Services.

    An update in another article...he was tied to the tree from Wed nite til THURSDAY AFTERNOON AT 4:30????


    On Wednesday night, the boy continued to misbehave and was again tied to the tree, where he remained until Sandra McMillan found him unresponsive about 4:30 p.m. on Thursday, Knight said.

    The boy had languished outdoors while the area was blanketed in dense, acrid smoke from the Pocosin Lakes wildfire to the east. State officials had warned the public to stay indoors because of the smoke's health threat.

    Wow. Unbelievable.

    We had a similar case here a few years ago. A couple put their two little kids, I think they were like 6 and 4 years old, in a tent in their yard. Then they padlocked the door shut. They said they did it because they had fumigated the house for insects, and didn't want them in there. Turns out they had instead had a party. One of the children died from heat stroke inside the tent before they finally let them out the next afternoon.

    There must be a special place in hell.
