Timothy Olschafskie, who previously served prison time for brutally killing at least five cats belonging to the family of his former fiancee, was arrested and extradited back to Delaware on Tuesday where he is facing one count of first-degree murder by abuse or neglect in the little girl’s violent death, authorities announced.

I wish parents would stop bringing in boyfriends and girlfriends to live with them particularly when their littles aren't old enough to properly articulate if someone is harming them

Seriously, my youngest is 12. I won't be allowing anyone in my home until he is at least 18. Even going to friend's house can be troubling nowadays. Poor baby girl

I just cannot understand why a woman would be attracted to someone who brutally killed helpless animals. Why on earth would she expose her child to someone like this?

that assumes she knew which I don't know is true. But if she was aware I will second that question. And if she wasn't - why? The internet and background checks exist. There is no excuse in this day and age IMO for letting a stranger or intimate partner have access and supervision over your child without doing the minimum research on "who is this person"
