Hey neesaki!Hi Safeguard, I do respect your views and opinion. But if you could help me out on one point, regarding the bolded. I would like to hear a plausible explanation for such overt and blatant child abuse, as in this instance, that led to this tragedy.
IOW, how/ why would any adult ever in this world do this to a baby if they cared about protecting her from harm, and wanted her to live.
Do you disagree that the actions of this man were so extremely reckless that they were done in a manner to harm this child? If nothing else, it would have terrified this child and caused intense emotional trauma. God.. if it had only been that, maybe she could have recovered. Instead, she was given a very, very, very, very, extremely early premature death sentence.
"Other than negligence in this one tragic incident".
Maybe that was poorly worded on my part. I don't know these people and they claim SA has always been responsible with their children in the past. He obviously spent a lot of time with Chloe and most likely the her older brother as well prior. So I am only speaking about this one time.
You asked me:
"Do you disagree that the actions of this man were so extremely reckless that they were done in a manner to harm this child? If nothing else, it would have terrified this child and caused intense emotional trauma."
I do agreed that this singular act was the most heinous, thoughtless, soul curdling thing I've ever seen.
I do not believe it was done with malice. I don't think he deliberately murdered Chloe or that he wanted to terrify her.
His behavior absolutely was criminally negligent beyond anything anything I can comprehend. And he alone killed Chloe.
(Hense the negligence charge and not murder).
I think he should do time in fact. He won't, but I think he should. Just like someone who kills a person when they are driving drunk. Did they mean any harm? Probably not. Is someone dead do to their reckless behavior? yup.
Should they have known better? Seems pretty certain to me...
If SA had continued to own it, like he was doing at first, I would be ok with a suspended sentence. But now that he's obviously lying and not accepting that it was his responsibility alone to guard Chloe from harm... I'd like to see him do some time.
