Tiffany did not appear because the judge said she's suicidal. Her injury to a child by omission charge was still read, however. Her bond was set at $150,000. ………….. her bond needs to be higher they’ve had 4 months of freedom while this little guy is in the cold ground all because he took snacks, this has turned out to be worse then I imagined , may their lives be hell in jail like they put this little guy threw. Just my own damn opinion !!! I hope these two rot in jail and get treated like they treated Troy

It usually doesn't take much time for the new inmates in the jailhouse to be "found out" WRT what he or she has probably done to get to jail. Cruelty to babies & children are thought to be, quite often, the worst of the worst in prison hierarchy.
Hope they have a good time when they are jailed...

Yeah, I know, it's just that people sometimes get fixated on the triviality of the 'offence' that caused death. It baffles them. It's just a snack! When whatever happened before his death was always going to be obscenely trivial, because nothing justifies abuse or murder of a child, and the deck was always stacked to ensure this outcome without outside intervention. I am always impressed with the thoughtful comments and personal insights of other posters, and respect their knowledge. I have a personal insight into abusive households, and I was trying to offer an explanation, if anyone was struggling for a reason why a child would be killed for a snack, why a couple would go through the rigours of adopting a child just to kill him. I'm sorry if I came off sounding patronising or know-it-all, it wasn't my intention.

No patronizing at all, IMO, 'shadow. Thanks for your thoughts.

We see so much abuse to those sweet, sweet little ones who have no real way of defending themselves -- and that, IMO, is part of why some adults do it -- because they can. The adults may have endured somewhat similar treatment themselves, or they are frustrated at this, that, or the other. Any excuse will do.
How will this ever stop? Just how?

 

[borndem]

I think it's less that they're unintelligent and more that these monsters felt such contempt for Troy, that they assumed that the police wouldn't bother to look properly for him either. I've seen it before with, for example, serial killers who are so shocked that anyone noticed a person they targeted went missing. They just assumed that nobody noticed or cared about others around them, and that a whole person just vanishing out of their life would be unremarkable. These people considered Troy a throwaway. It must have shocked them that not only did the police look for and find him, but that they didn't believe their stories about how he ended up the way he did.

That's in no way a justification for any of this, but it does speak to the fact that they saw Troy as invisible, disposable. When someone sees another as less than human, they might feel absolutely fine in doing horrible things to them and thinking it doesn't count. It doesn't mean these people have any kind of diagnosible issue that would justify it. People went to work at concentration camps every day, too, and they weren't sociopaths. They just decided their prisoners weren't human, so what they did to them was fine.

Troy deserved so much better.

Excellent post, 'shadow.

 

[borndem]

An example of life being very unfair, sometimes cruel. Not everything has a "reason," IMO.

Indeed, 'Birds. <sigh>
