French father charged after son killed in washing machine
Quote:
Police in France have charged a 33-year-old father with murder after he allegedly killed his three-year-old son by stuffing him into a washing machine and turning it on.
The man, identified in reports as Christophe Champenois, was charged with "murder of a minor" late Sunday in the city of Meaux near Paris, court sources said.
The boy's mother was charged with failing to prevent a crime and failing to assist a person in danger.
Both were held without bail.
A source connected with the case said the child appeared to have died from "a blow to the head".
Neighbours said the boy, Bastien, died Friday after his father put him naked in the washing machine to punish him for getting into trouble at nursery school.
A neighbour who gave her name only as Alice told journalists that she had seen the boy's body after his mother had come to her apartment for help.
"I took the little boy in my arms, he was frozen, completely naked. He was all white, limp, practically like a toy," said Alice, who lives in the same apartment building as the couple in Germiny L'Eveque, a town of 1,300 people.
Alice said the boy's mother had attempted to resuscitate him with heart massage but failed.
A source connected with the inquiry said the man was denying the charges and asserting that the boy had fallen down the stairs.
But witness testimony and tests on the body were "consistent with the fact that the child was put into a washing machine," the source said.
The source said the father had apparently been punishing the boy for misbehaving at his nursery school and said the child had been repeatedly abused, including by being locked up for hours in a cupboard. http://sg.news.yahoo.com/french-fath...005222319.html

Sad.
The Total Depravity of man rarely surprises me.
Micah 7:2-4 - The godly has perished from the earth, and there is no one upright among mankind; they all lie in wait for blood, and each hunts the other with a net. Their hands are on what is evil, to do it well; the prince and the judge ask for a bribe, and the great man utters the evil desire of his soul; thus they weave it together. The best of them is like a brier, the most upright of them a thorn hedge.

Re: French father charged after son killed in washing machine
This is a story that just oozes with whatthefuckery. These are the type of people who i have no problem killing. I would be more than happy to be locked in a room with them for 2 hours. What type of people do this. Fuck some people are stupid and completely fucked up. Anyway, this is just the type of thing that makes you realize how fucked up this planet is.

Yeah I got flaws, I know I'm not perfect.
But all ups and downs, will soon be worth it.
When I get there.

Failing to prevent a crime and failing to assist a person in danger? Surely every crime you should be charged for as you have failed to do both of these.
Re: French father charged after son killed in washing machine
I'm actually almost in tears. That is absolutely disgusting and honestly I can't understand how anyone could harm a child, especially their own.
This story has actually shocked me. It's horrible... the poor kid. "/
