"The couple's attorneys said they didn't realize their baby, born at home, was in danger until minutes before he died."They don't know why women have breasts?? These two need to be put down. That poor baby.

1. “they didn’t realize their baby ...was in danger “
Attorneys are paid to lie. This is a lie.
2. Humans were meant to be omnivores. A vegan diet is against human nature.
3. Liberalism is a mental disorder.
To: Turbopilot
Ugg you stupid selfish, self rightous morons! what the hell if you want to go natural at least breast feed the kid for six months.
My wife, the gift from God that she is, is fighting hard to keep her milk through illness. we have changed our sleep schedule done exercises, added compliments, and changed our diet to help. Its *that* important, if you cant nurse and your cowphobic use soy based formula for lactose intolerant kids. Kids are not meant to drink juice until 6mos of age... read a damn book..
Sorry, I have a 6mo daughter and this hits close to home!

"Some people are too stupid to be parents."Because we're omnivorous, a deficiency in amino acids found only in meat actually gives us brain damage. These two couldn't have had half a dozen functional brain cells left between them.

Exactly! I know plenty of vegi/vegans and they always breastfeed but also have great pediatric care to make sure the baby has proper nutrition.

At least soy milk (or "soy juice" -- see Lewis Black) has some limited nutritional value. But APPLE juice?? I wouldn't touch that pure-sugar, no-vitamin crap as an adult!
Assuming the baby was born around average size (7-8 lbs.), it is pure viciousness, and not mere stupidity, to watch him wither away to 3.5 -- regardless of their precious vegan "lifestyle." I'm not sure I agree with "automatic" life sentence, but "until-she's-too-old-to-give-birth-again" sounds about right.

he weighed only 3 1/2 pounds when he died. And another thing what the hell did you think the kid losing that much weight meant? yes kids lose a bit but if its more than 10% of their mass there is a serious problem. Ugg Lord prevent me from sinning in my heart out of anger..

Prosecutors said it was a chilling case of murder by starvation, a painful and prolonged death I don't know which is more pathetic. Government having to prosecute parents for letting this helpless child starve...or the government forcing the parents of Teri Shivo to stand by and let their daughter die of dehydration.

A 6 week old baby weighing 3 1/2 pounds is not right. The baby probably weighed more when it was born.
They killed their child.

This was, at the very least, the most sever combination of manslaughter, neglect, and child abuse one could imagine. This was a crime! 7 weeks earlier it would be legal (but still a crime)...
This was just! Birthed at home (ok) wanted a special diet (ok) too damn lazy to take the kid to be looked at when he was screaming all the time and losing weight (crime!)

Where were Jade’s and Lamont’s parents? Were any adults there to tell these morons they were killing that poor baby? Or were they marooned on a desert island?

Yet another sign that the vegan diet is not natural or healthy! if a new mother cant make milk because of it there has to be some red flags!
There is soy formula! yes its not a mashed bean but there are, to the best of my knowledge, no animal proteins in it.

That's what I was thinking. Unless mom's goofy diet made it where she couldn't produce milk.
Hope they get bacon & hotdogs for every meal now.

The only non-protein based food I have ever seen my cat go after was cantaloupe - she’s nuts about it. The dog always thinks the cat’s into something good, but is always disappointed when she sees what it is.

There's something about this that doesn't quite make sense. Soy formula is not bad for a baby that small - many babies that can't tolerate lactose are put on soy formula and do just fine - in fact, they do better than they did on the cow's milk-based formula.
Though I question whether a 6-week old baby is ready for apple juice, they simply must not have been feeding the baby enough of anything.

I have an 11 month old granddaughter that lives at home (my daughter is military)so it hits home for me as well.
This is far more than incompetence or stupidity. This was an intentional act on the parents part. The’ve elevated their own Vegan lifestyle to a religion and put it clearly ahead of their childs health.
There isn’t a single Doctor that would recommend their course of feeding for an infant, In fact, had they taken the child to a doctor he would have turned them in for child abuse and the child would be alive today.
Obviously the jury concurred....
