holy shit I just finished reading the story, and it brought tears to my eyes and so much anger. Its about a girl in texas that her parents locked her in a closet for years, didn't feed her, and pimped her to pedo's she was 8 years old and weighted as much as a 2 year old. Im beyond shocked

very long read, but must read

In a photo of Lauren taken at Children’s Medical Center Dallas after her rescue on June 11, 2001, she had the skeletal look of a Holocaust survivor. She was no bigger than a 2-year-old, and hers was the worst case of child abuse in the hospital’s history. She also had teeth missing and genital abnormalities, and her body was trying to shut down.

So not going to read this.
Why would I? There's 7 billion people on this planet, and we get news from all over the world nowadays. It's just a matter of probability that there's some twisted, sick fuck out there doing something like that.
News like this are why my grandmother thinks that behind every bush there's a sex offender.

People that seek to read this kind of stuff then share it are slightly messed up themselves.

I assume they get some sort of kick out of the shock value/obscenity. It's terrible that these kind of horror stories happen but the coverage and sharing is done for the wrong reasons.

i thought one of the most interesting and thought provoking parts of the article was the examination of the mother. the part where she's asking the other person to pray for her is a really powerful and confusing moment.

i dont think it's fair to think is just about something terrible that happened - i think they try to really look at a lot of different things and it challenged the way i initially thought about things.

i thought the article does a good job in trying to fairly portray everyone involved.

This article made me ill. Anyone who does something like this to a child deserves nothing less than the death penalty.
