I've been crossposting like that for MONTHS without problems.

I wouldn't hush up this story.
It shows how an unintented consequence is criminalized.

Police: Baby dies after pacifier taped to face

By ROB PIERCY / KING 5 News


Bonnie Desmond appeared in court Tuesday, charged with first-degree
manslaughter. LAKE STEVENS, Wash, - A mother is charged in the death
of her infant son for allegedly taping a pacifier to the child's
mouth.


Bonnie Desmond, just a month shy of her 20th birthday, could spend the
next eight and a half years in prison for what happened Monday inside
her apartment.


Police say Desmond called 911 at 11:30 a.m. Monday, saying her four-
month-old son was unconscious and not breathing. When police and
paramedics arrived, they found the boy dead.


At first, it looked like a case of Sudden Infant Death Syndrome
(SIDS), but then police say Desmond made a stunning confession. She
had taped the boy's pacifier to his mouth to keep it from falling
out.


The medical examiner has finished an autopsy on the boy, but has not
said exactly how he died.


Carlos Villavicencio, a pediatric doctor, says he has never heard of a
case where a child's pacifier was taped to its mouth, but says that it
is very dangerous.


"As with any other structure that would be around the baby's mouth or
face, there is the danger of suffocation," said Villavicencio.


Desmond is now charged with first-degree manslaughter.


Desmond's fiancé and father of the child walked out of court weeping.
Mark Roe, who is prosecuting the case, says he's seen more than his
fair share of crimes against children and they never get any easier.


"Most of us have probably faced the issue of babies crying in the
middle of the night, I would guess that most of us have taken
different and more responsible courses of dealing with it," said Roe.


Bail for Desmond was set at $500,000. Her attorneys plan to contest
that.


With all the parent and child hating bs that get's posted her by Greg,
et al, and even those times I find ugliness that needs to be expose,
no one, spd, can find the ones that bring tears to my eyes like you
do.


If anyone can figure out why people do such things...I don't think I
really want to know.


I saw too much of it working in mental health with abused children.
And sometimes I could not figure it out there either. Human perversity
is common, but this?


This one is too much even for me.

Yes - it is this parent hating drivel that breaks yer heart - huh sweetboy.

How about when you spammed DOZENS of vulnerable children to perverts on
usenet -- who shed the tears then you big he man you??

Well greg, not being a parent, maybe you just can't understand. or
maybe its because you are a pedifile, who knows?

Unintentionally going thru a red light still gets the driver a
summons.

Unintentionally going over the speed limit still gets the driver a
summons.

Does vehicular homicide require intention?
