Mother faces 5 years in jail..

[PixieDustt]

Scrolled onto The Sun website earlier.
Saw an article of a 1 month old baby brutally beaten (you couldn't miss it was underneath another story I was reading) wish I never saw the images and shocked the sun put them on there.
Words cannot describe how disgusting the whole thing is. It's more than disgusting it's pure evil.
The baby was black and blue and the mother faces 5 years in jail. 5 years!!!! She should be locked up and the key thrown away. She claimed a 'cold draft' caused the injuries on the child. I felt sick reading it and I can't get the poor baby out of my head. What on earth would go through someone's head to lay a finger on a child.
I just want to scoop all neglected children up in my arms and take them away from danger. I don't know why I posted in all honesty just angry and upset that the 'mother' would face UP TO 5 years in jail. So she probably won't even get that.
What the f*ck is wrong with the world

She should be facing 105 years not 5. How is that justice
Poor little sugar plum.

I saw the photos too. Absolutely shocking. Poor baby.

I will was shocked they showed the images, i just can't erase them from my head. Burst out in tears seeing them. It's pure evil. People like this should be given the death penalty. She left him there to die. It was attempted murder in my eyes. She didn't even return until the following morning

I remember having a moment after my first DD was born where I just felt so desperately sad that not every baby was treated with such love and care as my own. I have always abhorred any form of child abuse, but holding my little newborn in my arms just brought it home to me how innocent and vulnerable they truly are. I read the article you mentioned and I just found it incomprehensible. How can someone do such awful things to an innocent, sweet, vulnerable child who only wants to be loved, fed and nurtured?

The pictures were horrendous but potentially may create some pressure for a harsher sentence hopefully. Thank god other people went to intervene and check on the baby after realising something was wrong. From the sounds of it the baby would have died by the time she bothered to turn back up. Just heartbreaking but at least the little one gets a 2nd chance at life now instead of suffering with the perpetrator any longer (I feel uncomfortable calling her a mother).

It’s a horrible story. For some reason that paper seems to choose to report really horrific child abuse stories from Ukraine and Russia when they don’t cover other news in those countries.

There was a woman recently who was spared jail despite beating a baby (presumably her own) over a two month period, causing permanent brain damage, broken bones and potentially permanent blindness. Next to that five years actually sounds like a good sentence.

So what are you going to do to make sure children are better protected if that's how you feel about neglected children?

Campaign for the government to invest in and fund children's services properly? Contact your MP? Get involved with a charity? Volunteer? Donate? Become a foster carer? Become a children's advocate? Something else?

Or just bay for blood online?
