Just sitting here watching an episode of Emergency from the 1960's. Shoppers call 911 because a baby is alone in the backseat of a car and hasn't move in "over an hour". No adult has been in the car or to the car. Paramedics show up, break into the locked car, and discover the little guy was...

Agree wholeheartedly with your post, @justtrish

@lonetraveler, My husband and I have been going to Southport and OKI for 30+ years. His uncle lived on West St. in Southport til a few years ago. I, too, am shocked at the tragedy of such a quaint and beautiful town. Have been on this riverwalk, pier, and in the restaurants, as well as...

Wouldn't it have been very difficult to give birth to 3 babies in one year (She says in the article tlcya linked that the first baby was born a year ago). Impossible for them all to have been full-term babies. And why did she keep getting pregnant? Surely whoever was getting her pregnant knew...

I was certainly picturing/imagining her legs were sticking out, at the very least. Again, I feel like if the object she was reaching for was floating, she'd be more likely to reach out and try to retrieve it.

And why in the world didn't they see her when they came to her house? Why was she considered "missing"? I still don't get that.

The first thing I think of that would be soooo important you'd try to reach for it in this way, over a deck, acrobatically, would be your cell phone. I'm guessing it would float and the original report DID say that her cell phone was found at her home. But at that time, I think she was still...

And the mother was an RN? Wondering what is going on in this home that caused such filth to accumulate? He was supposedly the stay-at-home dad, not a very good one imo.

She needs justice! Too bad they can't put all 4 people in jail, maybe one would turn on the others.

I see in the article that his two sisters believe he is dead. I wonder what their reasoning is, and if they think it's natural causes or foul play. Also wondering how he got to and from his Dr's appt on that December day in "07.

Is this turning into an every week thing?? OMG, so many of these horrific stories. Praying for the children of our country.

AT's lawyer said the gunshot wound caused part of his brain to be missing, yet he has been deemed fit to stand trial. Interesting.

Wondering if he was homeless? I have heard that homeless sometimes sleep near substations, because they are warm. This is local to me, BTW.

This is so, so sad. Other than genetic genealogy, I don't think there's any hope this person would be identified. @Puzzleworth , any info on if the state hospital knew ahead of time they'd be closed. My thought is that if they were notified, based on this man's extreme abuse and neglect, they...

I can't even comment on this one it makes me so angry. My tender heart could hardly read the documents. And the pictures made me sick to my stomach. Who could leave 2 babies to fend for themselves? Selfish *&%*(!!
