A six-year-old girl raised to think of herself and her little brother as "pigs" -- they were treated as such -- thought she might die after the emaciated boy succumbed to starvation at the hands of his grandparents.
This is just so wrong in so many ways, whatever happened to the loving, doting grandparents? These two monsters are straight out of some fucking horror movie! I hope they get their just desserts when and if they hit jail. If not, I'd gladly offer my services!!
Every aspect of this story sucks. The children were placed in their grandparents care, even though they had child abuse convictions. Whatever judge signed off on that should be thrown off the bench, and be disbarred permanently. It takes a long time to starve to death. Does this mean that there was no supervision from child protective services whatsoever? No visits at all while this child was wasting away? My God, the kid only weighed 21 pounds at the time of his death. No one picked up on this? Some heads should role at C.P.S. as well, maybe even some criminal negligence charges might be in order. As far as the two pieces of human trash that are responsible go, they are lucky they live in Canada. The Canadian justice system is not going to give these two what they truly deserve,....a taste of their own medicine. On the plus side, I hear things are pretty rough in prison for people who abuse children. These two might very well find out how it feels to be abused by people bigger, and stronger than them. People who could not care less about their well being.
Not only was there no supervision from child protective services the dear grandparents had a record that no one checked!!! They should never have gotten the kids in the first place.
I wonder if heads will roll or if the public will ever hear
I think the part that pisses me off more is the fact that Elva Bottineau and Norman Kidman took away little Jeffrey's chance live his life. No chance to make friends, no chance to play sports, no chance to kiss a girl, no chance to get married and have a kid of his own, They took so much from him. Words fail me in describing how evil these people are, I hope there is justice and these fucking monsters spend the rest of their miserable existence staring at the grey walls of their prison cells in the SHU. 21 pounds at 6 is unconscionable, I cannot fathom how you can neglect a person to that degree. I really can't. I wish there was capital punishment for people who abuse and neglect children. Fucking monsters.
These people are the epitome of sadistic fucking animals who used children as their paycheck because they were to lazy to find real work and support themselves.
To say I'm outraged would be the understatement of the year, after reading this I'm sitting here with tears in my eyes and to do that to me takes a fuck of a lot but, these two inhuman bastards did it.
I hope when they get leniency from our fucked up judicial system, which we all know they will, someone in prison takes out the garbage for those innocent children, especially for Jeffrey.
RIP Angel it may be 10 years to late but, at least your sorrows are over.

There's one more kid that will never go to school never get to fall in love, never get to be cool.
I'm friends with a police officer and once in awhile he has facebook posts along the lines of "If you have kids, go home tonight and hug them extra tight."
I don't know what he's had to deal with to prompt posts like that, but I don't think we know about half the shit like this that goes on.
Makes me want to follow my little girls around full time, just armed to the teeth. Also makes me want to get a bigger house and start adopting.
What the fuck!?!? Seriously, what the fuck? I'm basically speechless. How the fuck did those two monsters ever get custody? They took the two kids away from their parents (who were alleged to have abused them, although I haven't read anything on that) to a place where THEY ARE BEING STARVED TO FUCKING DEATH.
Oh, and the best part? The grandmother MURDERED HER OWN FUCKING CHILD AT 19!
"http://fullcomment.nationalpost.com/2013/09/09/christie-blatchford-no-one-asked-to-ride-in-the-ambulance-with-jeffrey/" said Ms. Witkin didn’t reveal the specifics, but, as the National Post first reported just a few months after Jeffrey’s death, Bottineau was convicted on June 10, 1970, of assault causing bodily harm in the death of her own baby daughter, five-month-old Eva, who died of pneumonia but was discovered at autopsy to have also suffered fractures.
Then just 19, Bottineau was sentenced to a year’s probation.
ROUND OF APPLAUSE FOR THE CANADIAN JUSTICE SYSTEM EVERYONE.
I wonder if heads will roll or if the public will ever hear
Why is this inquest 10 years after the boy died?
Legal proceedings in this country move slower than molasses in winter.

In another news, the court is expected to hear Louis Riel's appeal next year.
