A 19 year old woman gave birth in a bathroom in a hospital, then killed the baby by placing it in a trashcan and covering it with a trashbag. She has been arrested for murder. See the bodycam video here.
The woman (I refuse to use ‘teen’ as a way to deflect responsibility) had earlier come to the facility with back pain and medical professionals told her she was pregnant. After that, Trevizo allegedly locked herself in the bathroom for an extended period of time, gave birth, and placed the newborn in the trash bag.
After months of investigation and the results of an autopsy on March 28, authorities assert that the baby boy was actually born alive and died because he was placed in the bag. Her douchebag defense attorney is trying to blame her deliberate actions on the nursing staff. Defense attorney Gary C. Mitchell called this a “horrific case of a young person who goes for help to the right place — the place in that community she should be at. She went there for help, and this is the result?” the attorney asked.
The defendant’s mother seems more concerned with whether or not her daughter is going to jail than she is about the fact that her granddaughter has been murdered. The entire case is to me about a woman who is thinking that she can avoid the consequences of her poor choices by killing her child. Now at least four lives have been changed forever: the now dead child, the defendant, and the dead child’s grandparents. That doesn’t even mention the psychological impact that trying to save a dead child had on the medical staff and on the housekeeper who found the child.
The cop was very smart here. He didn’t question her, he let mom do it. Since he did not question her, he doesn’t have to advise her of her Miranda rights, yet everything she says while in his presence is still admissible in court.
I’m sorry if this makes me sound like a jerk, but this killer needs to rot in jail. Her poor, selfish decisions ended one life and damaged many others, and she is now compounding it by blaming her deliberate actions on the nursing staff, whose only crime was letting her use the restroom and trusting that she wouldn’t kill her unborn child while she was in there.

And this is why I am a member of team Heads-On-Pikes. I have this suspicion that with more heads on pikes, amoral teen idiots like this one would be all ‘this is bad but I don’t want my severed head skewered shish kebab style out in front of town hall.’

It’s all very organized-religion. Outsiders stick their noses into a matter in which they have no business, the conflict between the baby and the mother. The purpose of the intervention is to foil Darwinism and force a bad mother to reproduce, making the human species weaker. The whole court system with the cop leading, evades the legislative intent of Miranda with a cheap trick. “Technicality” means organized-religion. Some unrelated third parties, taxpayers, are told they are required to pay for it all, because organized-religion says-so. Which particular organized religion you ask? All of the mainstream Western ones, they all try to do the same things. The killer should be free, and people who stuck their noses in need to be in prison, at their own expense.

I remember a similar local story caused me to have one of those uncomfortable “I really don’t want to have this conversation ” with my currently teenage daughter. Basically if your pregnant I need to know it. She was a smart kid with a lot of good sense. I didn’t have those kind of problems out of her.

They will check her party affiliation and then let her go?
Things that are absurd one day in the Chiquita Kwan are “normal” the next.
The problem is normal only gets worse.
The late 1980’s Tom Yanks Dragnet had the People Against Goodness and Normalcy (PAGAN) and some of the first drag shows and movie came out in that decade.

Of course I wish for every child to be wanted and to be raised in a loving home by an extended family. But that utopia is not reachable, and then what are the best approaches remaining in actual reality? Daughter’s actions reveals she’s not the brightest. Mom’s being practical and wonders what the Bolsheviks (upper-middle class implementors of Communism) are going to do to her daughter. Like with drug abuse, adding prison to unplanned pregnancy does not improve the situation. The biology word “adult” means sufficiently mature to reproduce. This woman is an adult, as humans reach adulthood prior to age 18. This adult is innocent; she never stole from you, lied to you, cheated you, or trespassed on your property. You aren’t the father or the family supporting her, and her baby is none of your business. The middle class calls itself “government” or “church” when they hurt innocents to demonstrate they aren’t on the bottom of the pecking order. The middle class says thoughtless casual sex for pleasure is “bad”, but that’s just a made-up apology for power. Communism for bad mothers like free healthcare, free food, and free babysitting are just more made-up apologies for power. Conservatives are on the same side of the barricades as the Bolshies, both fighting against liberty.

7 lives, not four. Somewhere out there is the father of the child, and his parents who lost a grandchild too.

Reading this, I was reminded wistfully of Oberst Hessler’s “mercy” in Battle Of The Bulge when shot at by a civilian Belgian teenager with a rifle, whose father then pleads for the boy’s life:
“Let the boy go.
Shoot the father.”
Which they do.
I cannot help but think this might not also be Solomonic justice in this case as well.
As close second would be executing the culpable girl by holding a plastic trash bag over her face.
“The punishment should fit the crime.“
