9 yr old girl forced to run 3 hours as punishment dies

Alabama, Mississippi, you know all of the right wing LOW IQ states.

Just look at these dreadful B-I-T-C-H-E-S The poor little girl will never have to look at these dreadful whores again.

This is in every state!! Look at Maryland where a mother cooked her son and served the child to the father because the "father Loved the child More than her". Then you have the two girls in AZ that were locked in a crib for 9 years never hugged or talked to. how about the case in New York where The mother starved her child to death. or the parents that won money in AZ and bought a new TV and Computer and played EVERQUEST never feeding their girl for that week because Ever quest is more important!!!!.

Abuse exists at all levels of education, economic class, every town and city in the world, at home or away from it, with or with out "GOD", And in ever political organisation. In all cases it is wrong!!

Fed, I dislike scum like this. And you are not much better putting a politicalspin on it. You should be ashamed using death to further your politicalIdeas when their is no politics involved. I know you are well educated but it is comments like this that cause people to think you just drank your way through school and didn't learn at all!!!

The same goes for you John. I thought you people had a higher bar.

This evangelical Christianity at work.

Not one mention of religion and from looking further not a word of God or Evengelical Christians to be found...

But there was a mention of ....

Court records show that Robert Hardin filed for divorce in August of 2010. In his complaint, he asserted his wife was bi-polar and of had alcoholic tendencies. He accused her of previously having run off with the couple's own child.

I guess the chance to bash religion was more tempting than to respect the death of a 9 yr old little girl...

What a shame...

Thanks Jim for having a brain. The Vine needs more like you.

Well said, both Jim and Auto!

As far as I am concerned this is a clear example of bible belt punishment.

Some one cooking and eating a child is crazy no doubt about it, and child abuse is happening across America but these women were not and are not crazy, they were just punishing the child for a lie.

How bad a lie could it have been to run a child for 3 hours until her little heart gave out?

As far as I am concerned this is a clear example of bible belt punishment.

With ZERO knowledge of if these people even practice any form of religious beliefs?

Some might say that was just stereotyping people based upon where they live...Are all people that live in the "bible belt" one type of person? Because the only thing you have is your bias and the location in the nation these people live...

but these women were not and are not crazy,

Court documents claim the younger woman maybe Bi-Polar... Crazy ? Or mental issues quite possibly! Which are unrelated to their Unknown Unspecified hell not even suggested by anyone but you Religious beliefs...

But please feel free to continue to denigrate the poor dead 9 yr old girl ...

It is interesting that if someone commits a mean and stupid act, they just must have been Christians. Frankly, as a Christian, I'm getting rather tired of the stereotyping.

By this rationale---and I use the word VERY loosely---that Powell guy who killed his children and then himself by blowing up their house must have been Muslim, because "everyone knows" only Muslims are suicide bombers.

One day, my Christian God will demand a reckoning from these two women for the atrocity they committed against this poor little girl, and before they themselves leave this world, in some way He wil set things right on her behalf...

Amen.

I would like to see the U.S. government offer a national basic parenting class. NO TAX DEDUCTIONS for children unless you have taken this basic class and passed. It could even start at the state levels first. Only a small step in the right direction.

Why in the world do you want the government telling you how to raise your child?

Why should people have to take a class to know that it's wrong to make a little girl run for 3 hours with nothing to drink? This is common sense, but unfortunately common sense isn't so common.

Catjmj, Because with a child abused every 10 seconds I'm thinking there is a lack of knowledge and basic understanding on the safety and welfare on the lives of innocent children. The classes can be taken in your local high schools. I'm not a big fan of government personally. But I am a big fan for the safety of children.

There's absolutely too much child abuse! I just don't think a class is going to prevent it. Like these women that keep cooking their babies in their ovens and microwaves...there's something else going on there. One woman claims to not have realized it was her child she was eating. Scott Powell...a class was not going to teach him that he shouldn't chop his kids with a hatchet before setting them on fire. Most child abusers know that what they are doing is wrong.

It may not prevent it but it will prevent a plea that they didn't know that it was wrong or that they didn't know it could be considered child abuse. We had a child, a baby really, die because the parents didn't 'know' that the baby couldn't live off apple juice alone.

Catjmj, sorry I thought I responded to you and my computer did a blink..and now I see the comment didn't post.

The reason I think those classes would help if it appears someone in the class needs more education, parenting skills, or other special needs it may raise a red flag. Parenting is one tough job for all of us on our best days. maybe and just maybe a red flag goes off when someone in the class thinks it's ok to cook your children or like here making a child run for three miles is suitable punishment. I think for that tax deduction or that earned tax credit they really earn it! In hopes of saving children and spending our tax dollars in a more construction way. IMO..What we have now isn't working..NOT with a child abused every ten seconds...

No problem Wizard. What would happen if a red flag was raised in this class? Nothing, because we wouldn't be able to sterilize them to prevent them from hurting their child. I do like that you'd have to take this class to be able to get tax credits, though.

Rahlly - some people really amaze me.

Catjmj, Make them take more classes or put into place an intervention program to moderate these children. What's wrong with saying as a country we are NOT going to let you abuse our children. We get to pick up the check from the devastation and destruction caused by these families, in our schools, hospitals, prisons, and the mental and physical heathcare services. JMO

These are the same people that would deny you the morning after pill because one must protect children.

With the stupid right wing nuts all bets are off once you are borne.

So you support the democratic method of forced sterilisation? Just like the SS?

NOW are we done going through the crap of putting a political spin on the is? this is abuse not a run for office!!!( no pun intended) Or do you think that Democrats never have abused their children or spouse?

So you support the democratic method of forced sterilisation? Just like the SS?

Project much ..!!!

Last time I checked contraceptives were completely voluntary. The only people trying to control woman and their reproductive system are conservatives. It borders on lunacy to try and claim democrats are forcing genocide simply because they believe a woman has the right to use birth control if she so chooses.

Hey folks, this is a "horrible" tragedy caused by two inhuman abusers! I think we can ALL agree on that....

Last time I checked contraceptives were completely voluntary.

Talk to the women in the Carolina's that were forced to be sterilized. However this case has nothing to do with politics it is about child abuse. That is not based by party's it is not Right or left wing. This is a problem that people don't want to see.

For my last political Comment Since you want to make it about Right wingers and lefties.

It borders on lunacy to try and claim democrats are forcing genocide simply because they believe a woman has the right to use birth control if she so chooses.

That is what the founder of planed parent hood wanted. Now are you done pissing on this girls grave?

Hey folks, this is a "horrible" tragedy caused by two inhuman abusers! I think we can ALL agree on that....

Yes I think we all can.

And it actually has not a damn thing to do with the politics of abortion...

Or for that matter POLITICS at all.... And sadly people will use anything even a child's death to further their political agenda ...

Jim,

As a father of two girls I cant believe how people can comment like this they must not have children or they just don't care about them. I have never hit them. All I have to do for my oldest(who is three) is say "If you Continue to act this way You will not get your broccoli tonight this is your warning" and she snaps back to being her normal good self. The youngest 18 months I cant do any thing she is a baby and I just have to be calm and try to teacher and show her what it is to be good.

Well Auto

As the father of 3 a 23 yr old son and 18 yr old daughter and a 16 yr old son... Ya have some great years ahead of you...cherish every day their gone before ya know it...College, married and gone (my oldest) !

Not having kids is no excuse.... There is no excuse.. Have a good on friend!

Auto101 lets clear something up here..!!! you're the one who made this political not me. I simply responded to your assassin claim..

Auto101

So you support the democratic method of forced sterilisation? Just like the SS?

As far as children are concerned my wife and I have raised 3 of our own and we are foster parents, so on top of our 3 children we have also raised a hand full of foster children.

Parents who raise their own kids have no idea how easy they have it. Try raising a few kids from broken homes or children who have lost parents and I guarantee you'll be enlightened as to how easy you now have it.

Our most recent foster child is a 6 year old girl who lost her entire family in a house fire. She was the only survivor, She not only lost her mother, father and sister she also lost her grand parents. You want to talk about a rough road ahead ..?? well there you have it ..!!

This young girl is in such bad shape that I hired a child physiologists/therapist and a nanny/nurse who I convinced to live in full time. The physiologists/therapist alone is costing me more then most people earn in a year and the state won't pay a dime towards it. Thankfully I own my own business's and can afford the 120K+ a year she's costing me not including room, board and what it cost me to convert an additional room into an office for her.

Now on top of that expense the nurse/nanny is costing me close to $50K a year. Unfortunately the young girl was in such bad shape that the state was considering institutionalising her which is something my wife and I wouldn't tolerate so to keep her out of an institution we hired the necessary experts full time at our own expense.

As far as the young girl in the story who died, Other then it being an unimaginable tragedy I don't know what else to say about it other then maybe we as a nation should stop making hero's out of people who resort to harsh discipline.

I remember arguing with conservatives right here on Newsvine over a father who savagely beat his autistic daughter over Internet usage. Most of the conservatives here where praising the man like he was some sort of hero for savagely beating an autistic teenage girl. What they fail to realize is that situation could have turned tragic very easily. It was a violent savage beating and its not to hard to imagine the girl slipping and falling while trying to get away from her enraged father. What would have happened if she would have fallen and split her head open on the side of a dresser ?? Another tragedy maybe ??

Try raising a few kids from broken homes or children who have lost parents and I guarantee you'll be enlightened as to how easy you now have it.

I have not my wife has. She has also taught at Juvenal hall.

Most of the conservatives here where praising the man like he was some sort of hero for savagely beating an autistic teenage girl.

I found only a few people who suffer the ID10T error was the ones defending the judge.

Just so you know I my self was Diagnosed with Autism 4 times and that was changed to 4 different things every time. With the love of my Conservative parents and their patients I was able to over come my issues. I made it out of the Geniuses program in Californiain sixth grade and had my expulsion lifted after 4 years. I understand what it is like to have anger better than most people. I can control it when Most would have killed the other person in a postal rage. try being calm when the person you work next to calls you a gay homo and threatens to pound your face in every day for 7 months all because I believed in not having premarital relations.

My brother in law is an adopted relative that has aspurgers and was abused as a child I have been working with my father in-law in helping him over come his issues. and every timeI see him he improves. he is the one that is making the effort (he is high functioning aspergers) I and his adopted parents are just helping him. he is now 10 and still has a long way to go

@Jim44,

Amen to that. My son turned 18 in January, is about three months away from his high school graduation, and just got his drivers' license. Just yesterday, he was a little kid---now he's 4 inches taller than I am,barely fits in the cab of my pickup and is the reason my razors get dull so fast (he SHAVES).

Where did the time go?

@Auto101,

I can only salute you. You are a success in every way that counts!!

Is that what it means to be from Maine? I can unload some sweeping generalizations on Mainers, but it would be a violation of the COH, and I have a lot of respect for my fellow Americans. Try to dial it back a bit, Hugh. It's not a joke when you print it, it's libel.

T Fargo,

No I won't dial it back at all.

And yes Alabamastan is the ultimate in jokes, obscenities, and ignorance. After living there for 14 years I saw it up close and personal.

And no genius, satire, irony, sarcasm, etc are not libel, but nice try at the melodrama and hyperbole. Given Alabamastan's most recent history, nothing I could write or say could be construed as a misrepresentation.

But thanks for playing, you are indeed a fine and noble person, now go f...

Living all over Alabama or in one place for 14 years? The latter is just a microcosm of what one can experience and formulate a generalized opinion upon. If I had a bad experience in one part of France and came back to America calling all things French bloated, impersonal, rude, dirty, disrespectful, snooty etc. it would not be a fair assesment of France as a whole.

Now this has gotten off topic far enough, what do you think about what these women did and how do you feel about this 9 yr old girl being lead to her death this way? And by all means don't hold back.

Jim remember don't feed trolls. They just grow more outrages.

WOW, who wouldn't be pissed off at that remark! NOT cool hugh....

The same reason people used to stand around and watch people get hung or lynched, they were afraid to do or say anything.

I used to work in a gym and one day I saw a woman forcing her daughter to run. She wouldn't give her anything to drink or let her rest for even a second. I watched the daughter very closely to make sure that I would be able to help her if she had any problems. When she was done and in the locker room, I took the mother aside and explained to her the dangers of running that hard with no water. I never saw her "training" her again.
