Clint and Lynn Engstrom, the couple accused of forcing their teen daughter to stay in a barren room 22 hours a day for two years, are being evicted from the prison-house for close to $5,000 in past due rent. Seems fitting, no? (Hat tip: Sinthyia)

Amanda Hamm, convicted of standing back while her boyfriend drowned her children in a car, was sentenced to 10 years in prison. As readers on a previous thread have noted, this means that she could walk out of jail in a year or two, once time served is taken into account. Justice? Um…not quite. Hamm […]

For those who hadn’t heard, LaShaun Harris, the Oakland, California mom who thought God told her to toss her kids into the river, was found legally insane by a judge. Too bad no one made that determination BEFORE she murdered her children. This is an obviously sick woman who should never have been left to […]

In 2004, Dena Schlosser horrified the country by cutting off her baby’s arms and letting her bleed to death. Her husband, to his credit, isn’t going for any of that usual stand-by-your spouse crap: he’s won a divorce settlement which forbids his ex-wife from having any contact, ever, with their other kids.

Update on the John Patrick Violette case: Police in North Carolina say they have no freaking idea why Violette flipped his shit and decapitated his daughter. One insanity plea, coming right up. I’ll be curious to see whether his wife Amber sticks by him, or runs screaming. As I’ve said in the past, I doubt […]

There are too many tips coming in to PBB for me to keep up. At the same time, daily traffic continues to climb. So, to take this blog to the next level, I’m asking someone (a frequent tipster, perhaps?!) to step up and offer to help blog these stories of parental woe. You’d be asked […]

More drunk parenting! Jason Blood of Schenectady, New York reportedly downed a pint of whiskey before taking his 2-year-old boy out for a walk in the stroller. When police confronted the 38-year-old dad, he pissed himself. Classy. And here I thought that was the kid’s job.
