David Privette Uses Cigarette to Burn Girlfriend’s Son’s Genitals
In Middleboro, Mass., Michelle Henry, 30, was charged with reckless endangerment and assault and battery on a child (her seven-year-old son) causing injury.
Bad enough, right? Here’s the doozy. Her 22-year-old boyfriend, David Privette, was charged with abusing her son by burning him with cigarettes, hitting him with a belt and urinating on his head while the child took a bath.
Privette was also charged with mayhem and indecent assault and battery since he disfigured the boy by repeatedly burning his genitals with cigarettes. Police said the boy had four burn marks in his genital area and one on his buttocks when police were contacted by the school nurse.
The boy told the school nurse that when he told his mother about the abuse, his mother told him not to tell. The boy’s school had filed three reports of abuse with the state Department of Social Services before Henry and Privette were arrested.
DSS first came into contact with Henry in 2002, after receiving a report that she was neglecting her son who was then two. Over the next several years, DSS received sporadic reports of neglect but nothing indicated physical abuse.
Great. Here’s a family who’s been “in the system” for years. Yet DSS does nothing until the THIRD report from the school, after the kid is badly mutilated by the scumbag boyfriend. It makes me mad to see kids get hurt when the people who should have helped (DSS) didn’t. This was PREVENTABLE, folks.

DSS is a joke here, too.
As I have stated before, there is a girl that I know of (my best friend’s daughter) who is the worst mother that I know. I have called them on numerous occasions. Those idiots called her 3 hours ahead of time to anounce that they were coming, giving her time to bath her kids (witch rarely happens) and clean her house. So, needless to say, they weren’t locked up in a room like animals like she usually keeps them when DSS arrived. They made two follow up visits and then, nothing.
DSS is a joke.

Here’s another story and pictures of these two ingrates. That ugly ass b****. She told her son “not to tell” after he told her about the abuse/torture/mutilation. I guess the dick was just too good to give up, huh? I’m glad I don’t live anywhere near her, I’d want to smack the crap out of her if I ever ran into her. I just shudder every time I read a story here. What in the world goes on in these stupid people’s minds?????

That bitch is just as guilty, maybe more so. She is supposed to be the ‘mother’. YEAH, RIGHT. She fucking knew what was going on and DID NOTHING!! She told her son not to tell. That POS should do as much time, maybe more than the man who did it.
I hate women who pick a man over their kids, especially a man who is abusing their kids. I’m fuming about this.

I commented on PYSIH, but after seeing her pictuer here, all I can say is MOO!
Even I can not get drunk enough to do her! Something as ugly as her will sacrifice anything just to keep a stiff cock in her life no matter what the stiffy is attached to!
I hope that her son chooses her nursing home when she is unable to care for herself.
But for now pour some Bondo between her legs, so she can have all the men she can get without producing any more future victims!

If this is true, and I’m not casting doubt, that system is perfectly inept. Sad. What are those people who work for the DSS getting paid to do? Or are they just so overtaxed that a case of “minor” abuse just isn’t a priority. I don’t live in the U.S., but if I was a tax payer there, I’d be speaking up, because this is terrible.

Kudos to the teachers who spotted the abuse and reported it - and didn’t give up until someone listened. They may have saved this little boy’s life. I’ll bet they’d be happy to administer some justice to this “mother” and her waste of flesh boyfriend.

I have a lump in my throat from reading this story that just won’t go away. My heart is bleeding for that little boy because I just imagine how much pain he must have been in to have this animal, this pig burn his testicles with a cigarette and then have his MOTHER - the woman that should want to die to protect her child tell him to not say anything.
I wish, I wish with all my heart and soul that I could spend a little time with both of them. Lord forgive me but I want them to hurt. This boy is old enough to where he will not be forgetting this horrendous acts against him and I can only pray that he gets adopted by a good family with love, morals and values. He’s going to be needing a lot of professional help in the years to come.
Then I see this animal’s picture and I’m even more repulsed. He’s horrid! How could she even allow someone like that around her child, let alone in their home? I realize she’s no catch but the fact is, I’ve said this before and I’ll say it again YOUR CHILDREN COME FIRST!!! Buy a damn dildo and call it a day. If there is any justice at all it will be some man in prison who’s heard this story will piss on his head and burn his balls with a cigarette. Shit I’ll send them a carton of smokes on the house.
I’m so disgusted and can’t stop thinking of this child and the pain he was having to sit in class in that condition. God bless him.

In her house?
The fat bitch let that between her legs!
I read elsewhere that they have a daughter togther!
So dig deeper into your pocket all you Massholes! (I am from Mass as well) and pay for their rehab, housing, and anything else that may be growing in her belly!

Here is another case of a mother trying to protect her boyfriend. I am glad the boy was able enough to tell someone at school. She needs to be slapped silly for allowing this to happen. I hope the little boy heals properly. The stupid boyfriend needs let’s say ummmm life in prison. Endangering a child deserves life in prison. Let’s see how the system works on this 1….

I think the mother choosing her boyfriend over her child should be slapped with more charges than the boyfriend himself.
There’s just something about a mother not protecting her children that sets my blood to boiling.

I can understand the mother taking a boyfriends side on a dispute between a child and the boyfriend when the child thinks they can have some type of control over an adult.
ABUSE IS DIFFERENT!
To sit there and watch the abuse and not do something immdiately or soon after makes her an accompliss - PERIOD!
Since they will be back out amoung us, he needs to be neutered and she spayed so that niether of these can bring a life into their world, a hell on our planet!

DSS is almost a joke everywhere. I do have to say kudos to the teachers and nurses who said something and kept calling. Good for them.
The mother is a sorry excuse for a women. S he should be ripped of her child rearing ability. She does not deserve such a bundle of love and joy in her life. She told the little boy not to tell? Come on!! I would have shot the sorry POS.
The boyfriend…..oh god. What in the hell was a 22 year old doing with a 30 year old anyway? AND WHY IN THE HELL WAS IN THE SHOWER WITH THE SEVEN YEAR OLD PEEING ON HIS HEAD?? Are you kidding me? Sure my kids take a shower with me from time to time but they are BABIES!! 2, 1 and 1 week. I also don’t pee on them.
I hope little man comes through this shining like a star. He deserves no less.
Fred I agree with you. There is a HUGE difference when the child is disagreeing with the “step-parent” because of an argument and just being down right abusive.

The department of Social Services is a joke. They should be held accountable for what happens to the child in the future when reports are made to them and they do nothing.

U fuckin people disgust me. I happen to have known David since childhood and David has never been, is, or will ever be a child predator. It’s sad that mindless people listen to bogus allegations because of a photo or a fucked up story of a stupid little white kid trying to listen to what mommy tells him. This fat, ugly bitch was a heartless, inept mother, who couldn’t take the way Davis treated her during his stint taking her money, so she set him up. Now theres an innocent black man accused of doing horrible things to a small mixed child in a predominantly white town with a white jury and judge at the helm of his sentence. I mean honestly, Who fuckin pisses on a child? Bullshit! David has watched my younger siblings countless times. They love him. I guess it’s easy to jump all over people you don’t know.
