I know what ya'll mean. It has been a brutal week. And quite a few of the innocents were slaughtered by their 'loved one's' it seems. :furious:

I'm sickened to think what if poor little Maurice was still breathing but unconscious and this "father" just threw him away like yesterday's trash?? I guess I'm jaded but I felt from the first report this child had been murdered by his father. He didn't want to be responsible for him so he told the mother to come get him...sadly she was not able to come till later in July?
So instead he gets angry bc sweet baby has a potty accident and so he killed Maurice!
Everyday I see and read things that just makes me believe this world has just gone to
he-doublehockeystick!!
Oh how I wish we could change ....

I completely understand hauling the dumpster away BEFORE removing this sweet child's body. They want every shred of evidence preserved, and removing it indoors, under controlled circumstances will best accommodate this. Second, it can be removed WITHOUT the fear of a reporter in a helicopter filming it.
Having watched The First 48 - can I say that Toney Armstrong (the Memphis Police director) was a homicide detective - and he and that group are relentless in their pursuit of justice for homicide victims.
Although the only justice that can be extracted suitable to the offence is the eternal, standing-before-God type of justice.

How sad to be left in a dumpster & hauled off like that.

TN doesn't have much of a death penalty. They have it but they don't use it often. Last execution was in 2007, that was the first in 40 years. iirc

I have been watching TN DR for yrs now-since that bat s***crazy Christa Pike has been there.She other cold blooded killer!

According to the police affidavit, investigators found blood spatters on the bathroom walls, pooling of blood inside the bathroom closet, and drops of blood on the bathroom floor and tub area.

They also found a white piece of cloth with blood on it on the floor in front of the tub. The evidence in the bathroom is consistent with blunt force trauma. Also according to the affidavit, there is probable cause to believe the little boy sustained bodily injury. :banghead:

As to why the body was left in the dumpster and hauled away, local news reports are that due to the temperature the body was too decomposed to remove at the scene.

I can't find an official report on this, it could just be speculation, but that is what was just reported on our local news.

I'm so sorry little Maurice.

Thank you! I was going to post something similar but saw your post. Everything you said makes sense. Also want to add that it won't matter to Junior, he is beyond any pain or embarassment now.

[Eileen730]

So sad...so many children never had a
chance...

 

[kimmie0313]

Well.... I have to say that spending most of my adult life in Memphis, this man will get plenty of "justice" just by getting to stay at lovely 201 Poplar. (as its known to locals). Commonly known as the city jail. It ain't pretty there.

I will pray for the Family. RIP Maurice

What a sweet little guy. I'm heartbroken for his mother and grandma. I hope his one-year-old brother is placed in a home where he will receive plenty of love and nurturing.

I wonder if the child endangerment charges were for Sr. leaving the 1-y-o alone while he left with little Maurice slung over his shoulder, since there was a witness. I expect the murder charges to be added soon now that the body has been confirmed.
