Very strange and horrifying story.

Reported to change city to Sulphur, LA (the child was airlifted to a Baton Rouge hospital, which is ~2.5 hrs away).

There were 7 children at the house? Probably not the first time he's done something violent.

Uh, this dude lived in a house with seven children?! Good heavens. The news report said the mother of the critically injured six-year old was also injured.

“It’s very important that everyone realizes Korbin is a cancer patient,” said his grandmother, Norma Modglin. “He was diagnosed with a massive brain tumor that was so deep, when it was removed, he lost all mobility on the left side of his body. He could not walk."

“This baby could not fight for himself. He could not defend himself,” Modglin added tearfully.
(…)
In court Tuesday, Greene appeared emotionless as the judge ordered that he remain in custody until a Gwen’s Law hearing scheduled for Thursday at 9:00am.

Gwen’s Law requires a judge to review an accused abuser’s history — and assess the risk they may pose — before setting bail in domestic violence-related cases.

This makes things even worse! If you don't want to take care of a disabled child, walk away!

UPDATE: Eight counts of attempted murder added in child abuse case - American Press

Patrick Seth Greene, a teacher and coach at Sulphur High School’s ninth grade campus, is now facing eight charges of attempted first-degree murder in connection to the alleged stabbing of a 6-year-old boy. Greene has already been charged with domestic abuse battery with child endangerment...

"...Hal Modglin, the maternal grandfather of the 6-year-old, told another media outlet that the boy is suffering from brain cancer and one of the stab wounds he received struck the tumor. “The area where he had his brain tumor, that area is bleeding,” Modglin said. “He’s going to have to have surgery there to drain the blood, the pressure that’s building up there...”

Am I missing something? I don't see in any of these news accounts what Greene's relationship is to the victim and the victim's family. Boarder? Mother's boyfriend???
