that's crazy

re: JefferyDuncan I think you mean--- that's "mentally ill" But really, do you mean that the crime is unbelievable or the verdict is unbelievable?

That is the worst thing you could do!! If you feel like you need to kill your kids get away from them, and go get some help. She just ruined 3 perfect little girls lives.

That's wrong in every way possible. Who is really able to shoot their own kids? Something really has to be wrong with you.

I'm sorry, but if you're seeking help, and the next day go off and do this. Then something is seriously wrong. The mom only thought about herself in this situation, and not the lives of her daughters, or the feelings of her husband.

LINCOLN, Neb. -- A 25-year-old Lincoln man has been arrested, accused of child abuse because of several injuries to his 13-week-old son.

You don't have to shoot someone for being racist, you could talk to them about it instead of killing. The dad must be really upset to hear his son's last words. The lady who called could have went outside to see what was happening or let the boy come inside if he was screaming for help.

OMAHA, Neb. -- Police said a 15-year-old girl is missing after meeting a man on the Internet.

Chicago police believe the drive-by shooting that killed a 6-year-old girl may have been gang related. WMAQ-TV's Christina Farr reports. At least 10 people were killed and 39 others wounded during a bloody weekend in Chicago, police said.

That is sad that 6-year-old was killed, who would want to do that? She did nothing wrong, I feel so bad for her parents and sister.

Who would want to kill a 6 year old kid. thats not even right!!

OMAHA, Neb. -- A rapper's band became the target of gunfire after an Omaha concert Monday. Police said someone shot at Tyga's tour bus and hit two people inside near Sokol Auditorium at 13th and Martha streets about 11 p.m. People at the concert said there were some rowdy audience members throwing garbage up on the stage.

didnt use mace or try to use reasonable force to restrain the child, just went straight to taze. very nice. not sure if its legally sound but nice

that's beyond excessive. he tased a child for.. what, skipping school and being stubborn? that hardly warrants tasing a nine-year-old.

He had no reason to tazer the kid. It was definitely wrong on his part. He should have found a different way to restrain him, not use the tazer before trying.

The father of a missing Detroit toddler has been charged with her murder after prosecutors called his claim that she was abducted by carjackers "totally inconsistent with the facts." Wayne County Prosecutor Kym Worthy announced Wednesday that D'Andre Lane is charged with felony murder and first-degree child abuse in the Dec.

That's a lot of money you would think someone got killed not born.

what Jordan said

the killing with an ax was okay but eating the guy was to far
