Sad Reminder
Back in early August 2006, I posted about a little boy who was beaten to death. This happened over in Prineville, a smaller town northeast of Bend. It was one of those crimes that just simply shouldn't have happened. Beaten to death by his step-father.
I just got a post about it, correcting some details about the boy's age and giving a follow up on the abuser—doing life without parole. Good. It would have been much better if the crime hadn't happened: much much better, but at least the perp is out of the Circle for the rest of his life.
Ahh, all you can do is sigh and shake your head and say some sort of prayer. For everybody. Everything.
