A Florida vegan mother has been found guilty of murdering her 18-month-old son after only feeding him raw fruits and vegetables.
Sheila O’Leary, 39, is facing life in prison after a jury convicted her Wednesday of murder and a string of child abuse charges over the 2019 death of her toddler, Ezra O’Leary, the News Press reported.
Her little boy weighed just 17 pounds — seven pounds below average — when his parents noticed he had stopped breathing.
O’Leary and her husband, Ryan O’Leary, told police that Ezra followed a strict vegan diet — but that he was also breast fed.
They said the boy hadn’t eaten for about a week prior to his death and was having trouble sleeping.

It’s a pagan religion.
We aren’t goats or cows. We cannot fully digest raw vegetables, grains or fruits and extract all the requirements of the human body.
Likewise, we aren’t wolves or cats. We cannot digest raw meats. You just pass it through without extracting all the requirements of the human body.
sounds like more going on than a vegan diet
IDIOTS!...................God rest the poor child of these morons!.......................
Yeah…:no. We CAN digest raw meats and some raw vegetables.

"Your Honor, the food is terrible in here, and the portions so small!"
Those EYES again!
Resisting our sin nature is noble. Fighting against God’s creation (He made us omnivores) is foolish. Poor child.
sterilize them both.
Florida. Not like the rest of us.
He could not sleep after a week of not eating? Imagine that. Hang her.
They would not see tomorrow’s sun rise in my world!
Been told that just prior to death from starvation, one will actually lose all appetite.
Then, the at the very last, if a person desires any food and they dont get it, then it is over.

“Florida. Not like the rest of us.”
Worse yet, this happened in southwest Florida (Fort Myers, etc) - quite possibly the epicenter of stupid in all of Florida.
Been down there too many times. There’s something bad in the water or the overall gene pool of that area.
The article says nothing about the husband. Other than showing his picture. I assume he is also in custody?
It states they had three other children under the age of 11.
She looks like so many crazy liberal women.
I notice when a child dies in these circumstances all of a sudden its the mother’s child, not the dad’s....
