Parents Behaving Badly

Man accused of rape while his kids were in the car

Man arrested, accused of raping woman while his children waited in the car:

That my friends is 24-year-old Quinton Travoitz Young of Dallas, Texas. He’s accused of raping one woman and attempting to rape a pregnant woman all while his kids were in tow.

In the first rape he forced a woman into his car at gunpoint while his kids were in the back seat. He took her to a vacant house where he allegedly raped her while his kids waited in the car.

In the second incident he forced a pregnant woman into the car at knifepoint and took the woman to a different vacant house again while one of his kids was in the car. After he took the woman to the vacant house he left the window cracked so the boy could get air. How considerate of him. Considering how hot Texas can get in May I doubt that was enough. Anyway the pregnant woman fought back and her attacker fled with her purse. She was able to get the license plate number of the car and police were able to track him down.

The boys are ages 4 and 5.

Just when you think you’ve heard it all another story comes along to prove that we haven’t heard anywhere near ‘it all’.

Thanks to Krissy for the tip.

Abandoned baby found in beer bottle strewn motel room

Newborn Left Alone At Motel:

Tara Anderson, believed to be mother of baby abandoned in West Springfield, hospitalized; faces new arraignment date:

EXCLUSIVE: Friend of Mother Arrested For Abandoning Baby Speaks:

A couple found a newborn baby left alone in a West Springfield, Mass. hotel room. The umbilical cord and placenta were present. The newborn was surrounded by sheets covered in blood. The room itself was littered with beer bottles and drug paraphernalia. No one else was in the room.

Eventually authorities tracked down who they believe to be the birth organism. That would be 37-year-old Tara Anderson of no fixed address.

Anderson’s friend, Julio Reyes, claims they didn’t abandon the baby.

Reyes says Anderson didn’t abandon her baby, but left her with a caretaker. “She left it with someone responsible, but I can’t say who,” said Reyes.

He says Anderson has been staying with him in Holyoke since just after she gave birth. Reyes says she didn’t go to police because she already had a warrant out for her arrest. “All I know is she did what was right for her not to get into trouble,” said Reyes.

So let me get this straight. Some people, including a pregnant woman, were drinking and doing drugs in a motel room, she gives birth in said motel room, then leaves the baby allegedly with someone else while she leaves the hotel for some reason? Have you ever heard of anyone going to a motel room purposely to give birth that didn’t abandon the baby?

Woman puts feces in special needs child’s feeding tube

Mom Taints Child’s Feeding Tube with Feces: Police:

Austin police: Woman put feces in child’s IV feeding tube:

Mother charged with feeding 3-year-old feces:

Say hello to the new face of Münchhausen by Proxy Syndrome. I mean that’s the only way i can explain why this happened.

Anyway that’s 23-year-old Emily McDonald of Austin, Texas. She was arrested for placing feces in the IV feeding tube of her 3-year-old daughter was in the hospital being treated for infections. Oddly enough doctors determined that those infections had been caused by the child being fed fecal matter.

When doctors figured out what was causing the infections they had a camera placed in the girl’s room. That’s when they allegedly caught McDonald putting fecal matter from the girl’s diaper into the IV tube. When arrested McDonald said she knew that the fecal matter would make the girl sick and knew that it could potentially kill her.

So what leads me to my totally unqualified diagnosis of MBP. Well it seems she constantly blogged about her kids medical conditions and frequented various parenting forums. While that’s not entirely indicative of MBP when you put the two together it kind of does. I’m not going to post links to the blog or the forums to protect the girl’s identity.

Also in my 9 years of blogging I’ve done some other posts about women who poisoned their kids who were believed to have had MBP that all used the same thing to poison their kids, human feces.

So Breeder Readers, I pose yet another question to you. Is Münchhausen by Proxy Syndrome a legitimate psychological disorder or are these birth organisms just being attention whores?

Thanks to Michelle, Melissa and Kathryn for the tips.

Woman with social work degree burns handicapped daughter

Mom accused of repeatedly burning daughter with hot iron:

Fayetteville mother charged with burning her daughter:

33-year-old Nia Michelle Brooks of Fayetteville, NC (or as it’s referred to Fayette Nam) is accused of burning her partially blind and mildly retarded 11-year-old daughter with an iron. Police allege that Brooks burnt the girl with a hot iron on her arms and legs. Police say the girl was burnt because she didn’t iron her Easter dress correctly. Brooks said the iron fell on the girl. Yeah right, four times maybe.

To try and hide her crime Brooks allegedly sent the girl to school in coats, long sleeve shirts and long pants. If you’ve ever experienced a Carolina summer you know that’s pretty much abuse in itself.

And oh yeah, as mentioned in the title Brooks has a bachelor’s degree in social work. Whatever college she got it from should demand it back. And again no matter how smart you think you are hospitals, police and sometimes schools know more than you do. You can’t hid abuse from them.

Thanks to Luci and Angela for the tips.

Kentucky toddler dies after ingesting meth chemicals

Teen parents charged in toddler’s meth-related death:

Child Dies After Ingesting Meth Ingredient:

Meth chemical that killed toddler was in a coffee cup on a table:

I kid about certain states sometimes like West Virginia and never really had a problem with Kentucky, until now. And let’s get this one out of the way up front. The following story takes place in a trailer.

22-month-old Kayden Branham of Monticello, Kentucky died after swallowing chemicals used to manufacture meth. Both Breeders have been charged with murder in his death. They would be sperm donor Bryan Daniels, 19, and the 14-year-old birth organism. That’s not a typo as so many of you pointed out to me. That means he was 17 and she was 12 when she gave birth. Which also means she may have been younger when she got pregnant.

The chemical was drain cleaner, specifically called Liquid Fire, that had been left in coffee cup. Even if you feel compelled to make meth you would think that these tweakers would at least keep their kids away from it. Sadly this isn’t the first baby drinking meth chemicals story we’ve had.

4 ‘adults’ have also been charged with manufacturing meth. They would be Danny Anderson II, 26; James Hunt, 24; Alisha Dicken, 21; and Wesley Bell, 24.

So we’ve got meth, a trailer, and a severe case of underage pregnancy. It’s like Jerry Springer meets COPS.

Thanks to every one who sent this tip in.

Kids left in cars

It’s debate time again Breeder Readers. This time the topic is about kids who get forgotten about and left behind in hot cars to die. A lot of us including me say how can a parent forget one of their own children in the car?

This article from the Washington Post sent to me by reader Rachel attempts to address the reasons why.

My question to you is…Is this legitimate or is just a bunch of psychobabble meant to excuse people from their neglect?

Discuss.

Reward offered for Giovanni Gonzalez’s return

Reward Offered For Missing Lynn Boy:

It’s hard to believe that it’s been nine months since Giovanni Gonzalez disappeared. If you don’t know who Giovanni Gonzalez is I’m not surprised. The story has hardly been a blip on the national media’s radar.

Giovanni is a 6-year-old boy from Boston who back in August of last year was supposed to have spent the weekend with his sperm donor, Ernesto Gonzalez of Lynn, Mass. When Giovanni’s mother went to pick Giovanni up he was gone and Ernesto Gonzalez said that he didn’t know what happened to him. Ernesto has been in jail ever since, refusing to give police any information on his son’s whereabouts.

Ernesto Gonzalez gave an interview to Boston media claiming that he killed Giovanni but police say there’s no evidence to back that claim up.

National (U.S.) media could probably assist a great deal helping to find Giovanni but they’re too interested in the Casey Anthony story. The only national media outlet that has featured Giovanni’s story is America’s Most Wanted.

Ok, enough ranting for now.

Anyway the police in Lynn, Mass. are offering a $7,000 reward for for the return of Giovanni Gonzalez.

Anyone with information is asked to call the Lynn police at 781-477-4436.

Since national media won’t help to find Giovanni I guess it’s up to us. Please spread the word about Giovanni’s plight. Let’s do what the national media refuses to do. Let’s help get Giovanni home.

Kids Discovered In Waste Infested Apartment:

35-year-old Nicolette Brady and 34-year-old Chad Lee of Metairie, Louisiana were arrested on various charges including child neglect, receipt of stolen property and disturbing the peace. No one knows who called the police or why but when they got there they found the home in deplorable conditions. A 4 and a 5-year-old were found wearing only diapers and insect bites all over them. The kids are unable to speak and were found hanging out of a window when police arrived. They also had a second grade boy who they allegedly let wander the street.

Lee has a prior arrest history that includes heroin possession and selling crack.

Brady on the other hand has eight kids in several different states.

7-month-old left home alone in filthiest home ever

Crying baby in filthy apartment leads to woman’s arrest (with REPORT):

I think we have a ‘champion’ in the filthy home category but more on that later.

20-year-old Jennifer D’Silva of Fort Walton Beach, Florida left her 7-month-old daughter home alone. A neighbor heard the baby crying inside. When police entered the apartment they found the baby strapped inside a carseat wearing only a full diaper and had a sheet on her that had bloodstains on it. If you think that’s bad it gets much worse. So bad in fact I’m putting it behind the cut. Not for the weak of stomach. You have been warned.

Woman approved of son’s affair with teacher

Mom Reportedly Approved of Teen Son’s Affair With Teacher:

32-year-old Maria Hernandez of Hialeah, Florida was arrested for having sex with a 15-year-old boy. Hernandez was a teacher at Our Lady of Charity School in Hialeah which only goes up to the 8th grade. The victim met Hernandez while attending the school.

Unfortunately this kind of story is all too common in our society these days. What makes this story different is that the victim’s mother approved of his affair with the teacher even going as far to allegedly allowing a trip that Hernandez and the boy took to Disney World.

No charges have been filed against the mom yet.

Thanks to Pam for the tip.
