Accused of a domestic battery of the child in July, Crystal Valdez was sentenced to parenting classes and given a conditional discharge last month, court records show. An Illinois Department of Children and Family Services investigation in August did not substantiate allegations of abuse against her but did find that she had neglected her child, DCFS spokesman Kendall Marlowe said.

A tragic failure of the liberal-minded court system and pansy-assed social workers who have taken over child protective services in the not-so-great State of Illinos.
Sick. RIP.
