So fucked up.. 10 Year Old Killed Infant

Also from the link
---------------------------

In a letter obtained Friday by The Associated Press, department caseworker Christopher Filteau wrote the sitter that she made mistakes by leaving the baby in her daughter's bedroom. The caseworker said the 10-year-old has behavior disorders and was not suitable for caring for the infant.

"You neglected to provide the proper level of supervision by allowing Brooklyn to remain in (the girl's) care," the caseworker wrote Aug. 10. "Brooklyn Foss-Greenaway has died as a result of your neglect."

---------------------------------------

IMO there should be an uproar getting the sitter charged

She should have been watching the infant..not the 10 year old

What kind of person pawns off a 3 month old to her 10 year old daughter that has many mental issues?

I'm curious as to whether the case worker observed these 'mental issues' before or after the event. Pinning labels like that on children is ridiculous.

Sorry, I forgot....civilians and guns. Tell me again what an excellent idea that is.

What does gun control have to do with this thread? Seriously man...

Ask the gun nut, he brought it up.:24:

This thread demonstrates just how screwed up the world is. There's one obvious conclusion to be drawn from this tragedy. ten year olds are not babysitters and the adult getting paid for the job is responsible for any harm caused by her neglect.

Since this is not a debate question and merely a technical question I will respond
The child was on medication for her conditions...a case worker doesnt diagnose nor prescribe meds /a doctor does....
