Another child allegedly murdered by mother.

[KateLMead]

The little three year old who went missing has been found DEAD. My heart bleeds for these children mostly of foreign who have met their demise through a parent. How on earth can a mother or father kill their offspring? the terrible fear the child must experience before being murdered must be unbelievable, agonising to even think about it. Bring back the death penalty.

I think it's difficult to comment before the facts are known. And I do think it is unfair to say that children killed by their parents are mostly foreign.

So very sad though.

Poor little lad. It was never very likely that a 3 year old would get up in the middle of the night, dress himself, somehow get out of a locked house and then wander off into the night, yet not be spotted by any local cctv; and I guess the police must have realised this very early on.

I'm sure they did Cromwell.

I commented to Mick yesterday that I thought one of his family had done something to him.

I think it was pretty obvious for the reasons you state Cromwell

I also thought that the police were taking part in a charade, but if that is what has to happen to catch the perpetrator, so be it. Poor mite.

So sad - but the whole story was wrong from the start, and I do reckon the police knew that. Poor little mite

[KateLMead]

Terrible, inhuman act. It is not proven that the mother killed the child it is alleged. As for the deaths being of little ones who are mostly of foreign parentage there were six named when we were in Birmingham, plus honour killings. only foreign of course they aren't we have our fair share of them. But not on the scale of the former.

It is almost always a family member in such cases

There is plenty of child murder amongst the indigenous population, it isn't just foreigners

It is terribly sad to think of what that poor child might have suffered.

At the same time I think it would be prudent for us to be careful what comments
we put on this website until any possible legal procedures have been completed.
