Little girl had 40 puncture wounds and a snapped neck Pagan tattoos may match baby girl's wounds Photos of couple's religious markings studied in probe of toddler's death
Prosecutors have obtained photographs of a Springfield Township couple's neopagan tattoos in an effort to match the markings to puncture wounds on the woman's slain year-old daughter. Daniel Duffield and Vanessa McGlumphy are charged in connection with the neck-snapping death of McGlumphy's 13-month-old daughter Jacqueline Mae Cooper.
Aside from the fatal neck injury, the toddler's body was also riddled with more than 40 puncture wounds, 12 broken ribs and a lacerated liver. Prosecutors last week received permission from Summit County Common Pleas Judge Marvin Shapiro to photograph the couple to determine whether their religious tattoos match puncture wounds that appear on the toddler's feet.
According to court records, the child had puncture wounds on her foot in the shape of a Wicca or Celtic symbol.
In addition, prosecutors say that Duffield and McGlumphy told investigators that they wanted to raise the girl in their Wiccan faith, an earth-based religion sometimes called ``The Craft´´ or the ``The Craft of the Wise.´´
Duffield told investigators that he placed the Wiccan pentacle symbol on the girl's feet, prosecutors say. Photos of the couple's markings were taken last week at the Summit County Jail, where the two are being held. Duffield's tattoos include a skull and dagger, an anarchy symbol, a demon and a Celtic cross, prosecutors say. McGlumphy's include a goat head, Medusa and a she-devil.
Prosecutors say a needle containing the child's DNA was found near her crib around the time of her death. The child's puncture wounds, prosecutors contend, are evidence of abuse at the hands of Duffield and proof that McGlumphy ignored the girl's injuries. ``For (McGlumphy), Wicca is nothing but an appreciation and love of nature,´´ said defense lawyer Tom Adgate, who represents the woman. Adgate said his client ``didn´t notice -- and she didn´t condone´´ -- the symbol puncture wounds. ``And she doesn´t know when it was done.´´
Duffield's lawyers could not be reached for comment. Duffield, 32, is charged with murder, involuntary manslaughter, child endangering and felonious assault involving puncturing the girl's feet and face. McGlumphy, 25, is charged with involuntary manslaughter and child endangering. Each has pleaded not guilty.
Both are scheduled for trial Monday, but Duffield has asked for a delay to allow his lawyers more time to prepare for trial. Shapiro is expected to rule on the request in a hearing.
The toddler died Oct. 6 from either a dislocation at the top of the spine -- from blunt impact to the head -- or a ``hyperextension/hyperflexion´´ of the neck, according to autopsy reports.
On Tuesday, a juvenile court judge granted temporary custody of the girl's twin sister to McGlumphy's father. The arrangement was agreed to by the child's biological father.

I was taught that the Crusades were a bad thing...an attempt by the Church to consolidate its power.
However, considering all we are learning of Islam lately, I am beginning to think (although no martial effort is without collateral damage) that the Crusades saved Europe from a scourge worse than the Black Death.
He's probably in jail.
Sick .. so sad. I hope our nation wakes up. If guilty, this couple needs to be made sterile immediately and locked up forever.
No matter...these animals still must be put down, if guilty.
However, you then had to degenerate to this...
"And because of this fairytale screed, radical Islam, Wicca, Budhism, {Satanism?}, Gaia worship, and all other pantheist beliefs have been made equal to our traditional Christian worldview. Of course, if these other belief systems truly were equal, then each of them would have been able to found a nation like the US, at least one time during the history of mankind. But truth shows otherwise. None of them have ever been able to do anything other than to keep mankind in bondage to the whims and fancies of whoever happened to be most powerful. So the multiculturalists are nothing but liars, and these pantheistic beliefs are nothing but the playthings of whoever dwells at the top of the heap."
You, like the anti-gunners, are using a sick criminal event to justify a particularly insidious form of bigotry.
Surely yiou are aware that, in the US, all religions are welcome so long as they do NOT violate the rights of others. And you MUST be aware that, under our laws and Constitution, all religions ARE equal in the eyes of the government in that it cannot promote any over another.
Your tactics, whilst quite classic in propaganda history, are nontheless disturbing in this day and age.
You mean like the pagan Greeks and their democracy, or the pagan Romans and their constitutional republic?
Don't Homer Simpson and his family live in Springfield?
I'd snap their frickin necks when I hung them.
Ah. And so it must be that the establishment of a religion is the same as, say, the promotion of a particular religion.
An interesting idea, I suppose. Entirely false, of course, but interesting.
Don't tell the courts. They've disagreed for many decades.
If the government (i.e., taxpayers) promotes one religion over others, it is by definition "establishing" a religion. By what possible logic should a Jew pay for the promotion of Christianity? A Christian for Islam? An atheist for ANY of them?
And why in the WORLD do you think it would be a good idea to divide Americans in that manner?
As far as the Crusades go, please take a look at this article and re-orient yourself as to what happened and why.
These people were "pagans" the same way Torquemada was a Christian.
Regarding "neopaganism", I think it was G.K. Chesterton who wrote "First you dabble with the demons and, in the end, the demons dabble with you."
Googled the perps names and got this link to the Cleveland Plain Dealer:

It appears Springfield Township is close to Akron. Also the story is basically the same one that is posted here, but I thought this might be of interest to those wondering, as I was, WHERE did this happen?
No. When found guilty, they should be beaten to death. Not hung. Not lethal injection. Beaten to death with lead pipes or baseball bats. I am a firm believe in doing what we can to make the punishment fit the crime.
The Pagan Karmic Debt crede of "whatsoever you do returns to you three-fold" should apply to their death sentance if possible.
I've been "dabbling" for around 15 years now. Still no demons.
Well, some multiculturalists would put it this way: "All religions and/or belief systems are the same and therefore equally deserving of disrespect, insensitivity, exclusion, and intolerance."
Yes, I'm just being contrary!
Excellent job thanks!
