Dad kills son to play video games

[joeybee12]

A Citrus County, Florida father is charged with killing his one-year-old son so he could keep playing video games.

The Sheriff’s Office says Cody Eugene Wygant, 24, is facing charges of 3rd degree murder and willful child neglect.

Daymeon Wygant, 1, was taken to Seven Rivers Regional Medical Center on Thursday morning, where he was pronounced dead.

The hospital contacted authorities, who went to the man’s home in Homosassa.

6. omg... glad HIM murdering the baby is not ENTIRELY her fault. fuck.

no. the man murdering the baby is 100% responsible for murdering the baby.

and i say this without knowing shit about the mother.

12. Are you suggesting leaving a baby with a father is taking it out to a forest and

Walking away? You do not think much of men or give them much credit

15. I don't understand why this person was even free in the first place.

"Wygant has an extensive criminal history in California, from trespassing to rape, but no previous arrests in Citrus County." He's only 24, obviously he didn't get much time for any rape conviction.

That poor little baby. .

13. Jury voted to leave it 1-6.

I don't see that post as placing blame on the mother...

I don't see it as a super constructive post but if anything the poster is insulting the man.

I clearly don't see what you see.

16. Even though the jury let it stand, I've deleted them all

I don't need this shit...This is the first time I've ever been alerted on by a non-troll

Congrats; you all have won...I'll agree to disagree in silence...

[cyberswede]

19. "Won" what, exactly?

You expressed your opinion, and I expressed my opinion about your opinion.

I didn't alert on your post, and I certainly never implied that you need to be silent.

22. I've got no problems with you or what you said;

and if posters think something I said was out of line, I'm OK with that...But when jurors start questioning my character when I've been here as long as anybody -- That is where a line has been crossed...

[cyberswede]

23. I don't have a problem with you either...

There's nothing wrong with you character. I'm going to delete my other post.

[uppityperson]

21. How do you know when you have been alerted on? I know we are told when a post is hidden, but

just being alerted on? Is there a way to tell that?

11. Bad breeders, again n/t

[dilby]

20. You do realize breeder is a deragotory term.

I put it on par with racial slurs or sexual preference slurs.

17. To be very serious here, as I get older and most of my life is behind me,

reading stories like this scare me in terms of, I'm sometimes afraid of my feelings about douchebags like this father, and how I would behave if I had been the one who first responded.

18. Put him in general population and tell the other inmates what he did.

I'm hard pressed to find any punishment too severe for people who hurt children like that.
