Laurin B. Boyce, 73, was charged with two counts of unlawful conduct toward a child, assault and battery, and aggravated and second-degree assault and battery.Jessica Anngeline Elmore, 33, was charged with two counts of failing to report child abuse and neglect. Dawn Denise Kirven, 42, was charged with failing to report child abuse and neglect, and criminal conspiracy. Lee B. Patrick, 54, was charged with failing to report child abuse and neglect, and criminal conspiracy. All arrested worked at Maranatha Christian School on W. Palmetto St. in Florence, according to Florence County Sheriff T. J. Joye.
Boyce "repeatedly slammed the head of a child into a crib" and dropped another child "from waist-height onto the (aforementioned) child's head."
Not to shift blame away from the deplorables that did this, because they're at fault, but Conservative Christian culture is also to blame. Something has to be done about Conservative Christianity if we're going to lesson child abuse in America.
