I cannot wrap my mind around the notion that the little guy's mother had no part in this. She left him with a monster and to me she is culpable.
A woman here left her 7 week old twins (boy and girl) with her ex--the twins' father--and he didn't just kill them--he tortured them to death. Seven Weeks Old those babies were!!
Mother was not charged as it was believed she "has suffered enough in losing her children." But good grief--she had been beaten repeatedly by this man during their relationship and it's why she divorced him. How could she even consider it would be safe to leave helpless little babies with him?
I've said it before and I'll say it again: Until these mothers--each and every one of them--are charged when their child is harmed by a boyfriend or whomever, who they know (or should know) is not to be trusted, these atrocities will continue.
Anyone who puts a child in harm's way should be held accountable--even mom. Imo, especially mom.

Courts order the strangest things. She most likely had no choice.
I think it is very dangerous territory to say all mothers whose husband or boyfriend abused their child(ren) should be charged. It woud be nice if criminals operated in a manner that was obvious to people. Unfortunately a good lot of them are very good at hiding what they're up to and they do not look like monsters. And that's exactly why these crimes are so hard to prevent. Most children get abused by someone known/close to them, not strangers. And it's exactly those people whom are trusted with children by their parents. Unfortunately, very rare cases excluded, child abusers and molesters do not radiate that they're dangerous. Would be nice if they did.
As always, all MOO.

You guys dont know me. I'm very laid back except where children and animals are concerned, so sorry if I offend those opposed to the death penalty...
He said that police are still investigating and that charges could be filed against Bentley's mother, Mackenzie Peters.
"I don't think she's going to get out of this scot-free," Mr. Goldinger said.
Does PA have the death penalty?

You always have a choice.
I did not say they should all be charged; I said those who know or should know that the perp might be a danger to their child should be charged if they leave their kid with that person and something happens.
IMO, not holding an irresponsible mom (or dad in some cases) culpable is by far more dangerous territory.
