http://news.yahoo.com/news?tmpl=story&cid=519&u=/ap/20050115/ap_on_re_us/bleach_ death_1&printer=1 http://tinyurl.com/693sr AP Mom Charged With Killing Girl With Bleach Sat Jan 15, 9:02 AM ET BIRMINGHAM, Ala. - A woman angry with her 12-year-old daughter for having sex forced the girl to drink bleach and sat on her until the child died, a police detective said. The girl's 9-year-old brother was forced to watch the attack, Detective Warren Cotton testified Thursday in a preliminary hearing for Tunisia Archie, 31. Archie is charged with capital murder in the asphyxiation death of her daughter Jasmine. If convicted, she could be sentenced to death or life in prison without parole. Cotton said Archie, who has been jailed without bond since shortly after her daughter's Nov. 26 death, told authorities she was disturbed because "her daughter told her that she was no longer a virgin." She said she poured bleach into Jasmine's mouth and the child vomited, he said, then sat on her until she stopped breathing, Cotton testified. Archie forced Jasmine's 9-year-old brother Jacorey to watch the attack and "told him that if he shed a tear that she was going to kill him, too," Cotton testified. I didn't know what to make of this one. But, there have been so many mothers killing children recently I'm at a loss for words. Really senseless killings. bobb It's a case for LAW ENFORCEMENT, not for Social Services Child Protection agencies. The Child Protection INDUSTRY hopes that the PUBLIC RELATIONS value of such cases will increase their budget, even though such cases are NOT the ones CPS handles. The CPS agencies are so disgraced that they engage in this sort of demagogic tactic. AHA issued a poster which is put up in many Social Services offices which shows a child with a band aid on her forehead. It says "Current child abuse laws are about this effective.". I added some comments to the one up in our office. "Over 85% of all child removals are not for abuse but, according to the agencies OWN statistics, for neglect. Neglect and "messy house" are categories used when caseworkers have nothing real to use. AHA and the agency workers imagine abuse EVERYWHERE and promote this hysteria because it is in their SELF INTEREST to do so. Child Protection is more than a 41 BILLION dollar a year INDUSTRY." It reminded me of the poster suggesting to women that for economic reasons, the domestic violence "option" could be used to their advantage. > It's a case for LAW ENFORCEMENT, not for > Social Services Child Protection agencies. Yep, that's why the subject line. Notice? > The Child Protection INDUSTRY hopes that > the PUBLIC RELATIONS value of such cases > will increase their budget, even though such > cases are NOT the ones CPS handles. Yep, they don't handle these. And you are prepared to defend your claim that CPS welcomes the killing of children to increase their budget? > The CPS agencies are so disgraced that they > engage in this sort of demagogic tactic. I don't recall andy CPS agency writing this story, or for that matter, contributing to it in any way. Are they supposed to? > AHA issued a poster which is put up in many > Social Services offices which shows a child > with a band aid on her forehead. > It says "Current child abuse laws are about > this effective.". That's about right. The actually incidence of child abuse is estimated to be nearly two thirds more than is reported and acted upon. > I added some comments to the one up in > our office. > > "Over 85% of all child removals are not > for abuse but, according to the agencies OWN > statistics, for neglect. Neglect, as you know if you bother to read this ng, is more deadly than abuse. > Neglect and "messy house" > are categories used when caseworkers have > nothing real to use. Nonsense. No one ever loses their child for a "messy house." > AHA and the agency workers > imagine abuse EVERYWHERE and promote this > hysteria because it is in their SELF INTEREST > to do so. Child Protection is more than a > 41 BILLION dollar a year INDUSTRY." They are not imagining. http://www.cbsnews.com/stories/2003/11/21/60minutes/main585049.shtml " It is estimated that Americans now spend somewhere around $10 billion a year on adult entertainment, which is as much as they spend attending professional sporting events, buying music or going out to the movies.

With each new home, mall, factory, office building and school, there is an increased need for plumbers, HVACR installers and service technicians. " http://www.onlinejournal.com/Special_Reports/102704Pringle/102704pringle.html " October 27, 2004-Last July 6, the Department of Health and Human Services (HHS) Office of the Inspector General (IG) released a report stating that former Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services (CMS) Administrator Thomas Scully pressured the agency's chief actuary, Richard Foster, to withhold cost estimates of the Medicare Prescription Drug bill when it was being considered by Congress last year. Foster had claimed that Scully ordered him to withhold estimates that showed the bill would cost between $500 billion and $600 billion, well above the $395 billion estimate on which members of Congress were set to base their vote. " Apparently we aren't spending enough on child welfare. > It reminded me of the poster suggesting to women > that for economic reasons, the domestic violence > "option" could be used to their advantage. What poster was that? Kane |
