“Suffer The Little Children…”*
May 06, 2008I must admit, I’m a little shocked. Is it really necessary to add “starvation and dehydration” to Tennessee’s current child abuse law. Could there REALLY be any doubt in any jury’s or Judge’s mind that starving a child and allowing them to become dehydrated is abuse?
The answer, sadly, is yes. As you will see in the story linked below, a teen in Lebanon was chained to his bed and starved, and the best charge they could come up with for his parents was aggravated child “neglect”, which resulted in 6 years in prison each. The stepmother was released in less than 2 years.
