Teenager (14) Charged In Attempted MURDER…ABUSED 3 Children, KILLING One He Was Babysitting

This has been a bad week for children entrusted to others’ care. From the midwife who beat a 4-day-old child to the mother who was arrested for stabbing her baby to protect him from a “Biblical flood,” it seems that the world is full of crazies. To add to this steaming pile of human waste, a teenage boy who was trusted to care for children is now being charged with attempted murder and will likely also face murder charges for his depravity.

A 14-year-old babysitter attacked three children he was looking after, killing one of them, police said.

The boy has been charged with attempted murder and child abuse, Memphis police spokeswoman Karen Rudolph said Wednesday.

She said the teenager assaulted two girls, aged six and nine, and a seven-year-old boy in a home in Memphis, Tennessee, on December 23.

Rudolph said the boy had been caring for the children while their foster mother was working. It is not clear why he attacked them.

The children were taken to a hospital and the six-year-old girl died on Sunday. Police said she had a swollen and bruised face, but the cause of death has not been determined.

The other two children were released to the care of the Department of Children’s Services.

The teenager is being charged as a juvenile.

Society is becoming more and more savage as we disconnect from the things that make us human. Pillars of civilization and general standards have eroded and while these kinds of crimes are outrageously heinous, it’s not altogether surprising to see that we are losing our humanity.
