Godfrey has a theory on what happened to Noah. He said Noah was born with his bladder outside his body, and that other birth defects caused Noah to sometimes wet his pants. Godrey said McIntosh “is a violent man” and that perhaps the burden of raising Noah caused him to snap.
“Did I think he’d kill Noah? I thought at one time he would kill the whole family,” said Godfrey, who during an interview would not refer to McIntosh by name.
Godfrey said he called Riverside County Child Protective Services a year or so ago, fearing that Noah was being abused, but caseworkers determined that there was no cause to take the boy away. Agency spokesman Gene Kennedy said Friday that he could not comment because of privacy regulations.
Godfrey said that if the parents felt like they couldn’t care for the boy, “I would have taken him back in a heartbeat” and that he believes that relatives such as he and his wife should be given a role in raising children when the parents are failing.
“If we would have had grandparents’ rights, Noah wouldn’t be dead today. Noah would be alive today and thriving in our household,” he said.
