(113,275 posts)2. and so are these so-called "social workers":
Two social workers and two supervisors were sacked following the death of the 8-year-old. Every incident report concluded with no abuse, and a detailed report was never written up.
personally, I think they should suffer the very same that they allowed to happen to that poor child, and for as long. THEN they should be incarcerated for the rest of their useless, worthless, miserable lives, along with the parents.

How did it slip through the cracks so much, so many times?
Whatever his scumbag 'parents' get, it won't be enough.

No mercy should be shown to these monsters -- which, considering what they did to that poor child, is actually a mild word. (Think of all the loving couples who aren't able to have children of their own.)
The two social workers and the two supervisors should spend the rest of their lives in prison with hardened criminals for company.

he got up to get a glass of water, he cried to long when someone he liked didn't like him back, he had to go to the bathroom in the middle of a movie, he wanted an extra desert, or any number of things that normal kids do or want would likely get him a fatal beating.
