Vegan parents guilty in infant murder

| Vegan parents guilty in infant murder 6-week-old died of starvation after being fed diet of soy milk, apple juice By BETH WARREN The Atlanta Journal-Constitution Published on: 05/02/07 The parents of a baby that died of starvation after being fed a vegan diet have been found guilty of malice murder, felony murder and first degree cruelty to children. Jade Sanders, 27, and Lamont Thomas, 31, will get an automatic life sentence for the death of their 6-week-old infant, Crown. After being fed a diet largely consisting of soy milk and apple juice, he weighed only 3 1/2 pounds when he died. The Fulton County jury deliberated the case for about seven hours. Prosecutors said it was a chilling case of murder by starvation, a painful and prolonged death. Attorneys representing Sanders and Thomas told jurors the first-time parents did the best they could while adhering to their vegan lifestyle. Vegans typically live free of animal products. "They're not vegans, they're baby killers," Fulton prosecutor Mike Carlson told the jury Tuesday during his closing arguments. The couple's attorneys said they didn't realize their baby, born at home, was in danger until minutes before he died. |
Idiots.
Chalk one up for the meat eaters.
I dont see what that has to do with vegans.
Obviously they just didnt know jack shit about nutrition in general.
and over here, a smackhead woman who regularly fed her kid methadone to shut it up gets a 2 year sentence & will probably be out in 1 year.

Having my own baby a few months ago, it urks the fuck outta me when

If you cant take care of him/her, give them up for adoption.
Serves them right for life in jail...imbeciles..

| The infant was born in the bathtub of a Buckhead apartment but never taken to a doctor while alive. He was dead when his parents took him to Piedmont Hospital, across the street from their apartment, April 25, 2004. At six weeks old he weighed just 3 1/2 pounds and was so emaciated, doctors could count his bones through his skin. Fulton prosecutor Chuck Boring said the verdict isn't a condemnation of veganism, a strict form of vegetarianism that doesn't allow the consumption or use of animal products. Instead, jurors believed prosecutors' assertions that the couple intentionally neglected and underfed the child and then tried to use the lifestyle as a shield. |

It's blatantly obvious they didn't want and/or care about the child. Fuck appealing the issue, they should be shot. |
They should have ate the baby.
Y'know, to dispose of the evidence.
Horrible. I hate reading about things like this regarding babies and old people.
Some parents just...don't understand how babies are kept healthy. I understand wanting to pass on the vegan ways to their child, yes, but do it at the age when the body is able to survive the diet.
