Baby boy dies from injuries suffered at hands of alleged abuser
Baby boy suffered numerous injuries

(3/01/06 - KTRK/NEEDVILLE, TX) - Area police are investigating the murder of a victim just ten months old. This tragic story of a baby killed comes from Needville, in Fort Bend County.
Last Thursday, Needville police responded to a 911 call about a choking child. Paramedics rushed the 10-month-old boy to Oak Bend Medical Center in Richmond. He was then flown to Texas Children's Hospital in Houston, where he died.
"The official autopsy report showed blunt force trauma to the head," said Needville Police Chief Michael Dickerson.
Dickerson says the infant had been hit in the head repeatedly and that he suffered multiple skull fractures.
He said, "Somebody did do this to the child. It's just narrowing it down and eliminating the suspects."
Police are not yet naming any suspects in the boy's death. As in any investigation, they're looking first at those closest to the victim. They say an arrest is forthcoming.
Neighbors say no child should die such a horrific death, especially in a small town like Needville, where the population is less than 3,000. They say these things just don't happen.
"It's just very sad," said neighbor Jim Morales. "I wouldn't want that to happen to me."
CPS removed the victim's eight-year-old sister from the home at least temporarily.
Authorities are calling this a case of capital murder because of the victim's age. There are no arrests at this time.
woman in australia was arrested after bashing a foster child to death, not sure of the age, but he was old enough to have teeth because she gouged them out with a knife before she beat him to death

I am aware that "your" should be "you're," and while I know I should change it as not to offend the grammar fans around the boards, school always said not to bow to peer pressure so it stays as it is
Scary to see how lightly something like this is taken.
'Welcome to earth' and 'A few month's earlier and it would have been legal' as comments like you're talking about the weather.
The fact that events like this are becoming more common every day is already sad enough, the fact that society stops taking notice is plain pity-full.
And...? Make a thread about how many leaves fall off trees each year, doesnt change it from happening. Yes, we know it happens. We know its wrong. What do you want us to do? Make a campaign to stop it? Ring the offenders and tell them what bad people they are?
Society hasnt stopped taking notice, the offenders will be caught and penalized etc. People get raped/killed/bashed/robbed everyday, what's the difference whether its a baby/child/teen/adult/eldery person, it still happens and nothing can be done to prevent it. Shame it happens, but whatcha gonna do?
