Yep! Little baby Emma. I told them that if it was a boy, I'd give them $1000 if they name him Jake. If it's a girl... $2000.
Pretty exciting stuff, my second niece. Makes stories like this hard to read about. My wife comes home with stories every week, although not as gruesome as this.
One social worker said that the kids of neglectful/abusive parent often end up "in the system" for life. One kid that she had as a child protection case in now in the system for mental issues, tying up & beating a neighbor's dog to death. 8 years old. What do you think his next 50-70 years are going to be like?
