Some days I wonder if God will just throw down a thunderbolt. God knows we deserve it.

[BradyLS]

I hear you. Amen. De Tocqueville said America would cease to be great when she ceased to be good. To be great again we have but to be good again.

God will sort the wheat from the chaff, my FRiend. This story is as heart breaking as any I’ve read in many years. As Christ said (I may be paraphrasing slightly), “What you do to the least of these you do unto Me.”

[Free in Texas]

Well I’m just gonna say it. Sorry ass bitch.

It reminds me of what ancient history says about civilization around the Mediterranean, primarily the north and east, but maybe further. It is said many people didn’t want female babies as they had no value, were a burden. Those people would take new born females outside of town and throw them out in the fields to die. Christians would go out and rescue the female babies taking them into their homes and thereby gained the respect and good-will of the populace.

Who’s the “we”????

In New York today she would be a hero... and possibly receive some compensation for baby parts sold.

Whoa. I grew up in Sioux Falls. I went all through school with the husband. This is crazy. He was a quiet unassuming guy.

Uh boy. Wait til they realize there’s been 56 million killed since then and in this country

This is another success for genetic genealogy. Once she became a suspect from her relative’s family tree, the police went through her garbage to get DNA from cigarette butts and beer cans.

Bentaas, 57, told police she was scared and "not smart" in February 1981, when she's accused of leaving baby Andrew in blankets and driving away, according to an affidavit in support of an arrest warrant.

So she was 19 at the time of her despicable act. Perhaps her sentence should be to beat her so she is unable to move and throw her in a ditch on a cold night in Feb. of next year. No trial necessary. I'll abandon due process for her. She needs to catch the express to hell.

"In the blanket, he found a baby - with tears frozen on his cheeks.”

This mental image is terrible. The poor thing spent his last moments crying in the lonely, cold field. For some simple love, a little tenderness that all babies deserve.

We were told that since Roe vs Wade this kind of thing would never happen as the unwanted, unplanned pregnancy would be... terminated.

But thousands of children, some as young as Andrew John Doe, are murdered for the crime of being "inconvenient"

God have mercy on us Americans for allowing this to happen daily.

[Old Grumpy]

The entire story was terribly tragic and sad, but the part about tears frozen on the baby’s cheeks ripped my heart out. I will NEVER understand how a person could be so monstrous to do such a thing to a sweet innocent human being.
