Out of curiosity I opened that thread, I see what you are talking about. I'm not going to bother with that noise. I have learned a certain segment of our population is impossible to reason with.

Yes, I stay far away from that forum. Even when a thread I’ve been active on here gets moved over there, I abandon it rather than venture over there. Because I know it’s gonna get really really ugly.

Signs are pointing toward a gruesome story behind the story, though.
With that knowledge, it would not surprise me if the boy himself had been sexually abused by dad. Perhaps dad created this monster.

The suspect’s father -Adam Berger- (mugshot) is out of jail (3 years term) since 2021 and registered as a sex offender currently : was in a very close contact with his son since birth after a brief relationship with the suspect’s mother.
The father even crocheted the blanket in prison for his son.

Prior to his arrest when the suspect was 8 years old - the father was trying to run over his son’s mother - Lauri Davis (multiple drug offenses, domestic battery offenses, currently lives with a person who has been convicted for fraud) - with his son in the car!

The father’s offense: 10 counts of child pornography on his phone - pre-pubescent girls - with focus on genitalia. Drugs paraphernalia was found on him at that time too.

Unfortunately, looks like it was a lot of disfunction surrounding the victim: her mother is currently on probation- after convictions for theft - fraudulent use of the credit cards ($7500) as well as stealing money under false pretenses ($10 000) from relatives

I agree. I think parents occasionally did this a long time ago.

So the boy was doomed from the start. It sounds like the father was determined to raise his son with father's value system. And the mother, a druggie, wasn't a fit parent, either. How do cases like this remain outside the social services' system's radar?

Doesn't matter why, there were already several post about it. Not just a "someone".

So? Just because some posters followed the first piggybacking poster about Lily Peters in the kidnapped baby thread doesn't make it a new double-event thread, which by the way no one would even know by the title.

Good one! I think the person I responded to (vabeachgirlNYC) cares since you responded to me in the first place. I don't come here to argue. Bonne nuit.

(Thanks to those who sent me rep marks for it.)
