Children Caught in Cross Fire: Violent Deaths

(The Worst Yet is Expected to Come)

 The above headlines were reported in the year of 1995. That prediction has come to our world in this present time. "Homicide rates are at highs for teenage boys," according to researchers with a population Reference Bureau. They noted, that among all homicide victims, three-fifths are young adults. According to their report; "From preschool to age 14, children are likely to be murdered now, than at any time in decades."

The experts for this study warned, this is no statistic blip, no brief violent era that will soon level off. “The worst is yet to come.” Said a criminal justice dean.

The Mirror of Society Part 2 Crimes Committed by Young Criminals

(Sadistic and Violent)
A 12-year-old girl was sadistically murdered by two teenage girls; ages 16 and 18. After the 12-year-old girl had been lured into the car and driven for several hours, the 16-year-old girl grabbed her from behind by her hair, and pressed a knife to her throat. The two older girls removed her from the car and committed this sadistic act: They sodomized her with a tire tool, choked her with a cord, beat her, and sliced her legs with a knife. Then, the girls soaked a blanket in gasoline, threw it over her body, and burned her while she was still alive.
Motive: The 16-year- old girl, accused the 12-year- old girl of “stealing her lover.”

A 29-year-Old Pizza Delivery Man Attacked by Teenage Girls

When the man arrived with the pizza, and cold drinks the girls had ordered, he was sprayed in the eyes with hair spray, hog-tied, blind-folded, kicked, and beaten. Then he was loaded into the back of his truck and driven to an isolated field, where the girls discussed exploding firecrackers in his nose and ears. But instead, they chose to beat him again with boards containing protruding nails. Then they sat on him and stabbed him repeatedly until they thought he was dead. After they left, one of the girls returned to the scene and slit the man’s throat.  Miraculously, he survived.

We live in a world with both the old and young people, who have no conscious. They torment and kill for pleasure.

The Mirror of Society

The way young people behave in our communities, is the Mirror of Society. It reveals a picture of the world we live in. The young people who you will read about have no respect for others.

The source from which these stories are printed reveals the date and place where these events occurred. For the sake of privacy, I will not print the date and the place of location here.

Violent Man Ordered to Marry Girlfriend

A judge has ordered a 25-year-old man who was convicted of punching his girlfriend in the mouth, to marry her within nine months or risk being jailed. The judged stated, "I happen to believe in traditional values: boy meets girl, boy ask girl out, boy and girl go steady, boy and girl get married, and then, the boy and girl start having a family." The man pleaded no contest to domestic violence.

The judge gave the 25-year-old man a suspended four months sentence, fined him $100, placed him on nine months' probation, and ordered him to undergo counseling.


Weakness in the Justice System
We need stronger laws to protect women and children against sexual and violent acts committed against them.This is a worldwide problem.

Questions:

1. Should the judge have ordered this man to marry his girlfriend?
2. How do you feel about the judge's thoughts on relationships?

The cause of many crimes in society is due to failure of parents to accept responsibility of their role in taking proper care of their children, by being good role models.

Parents Who Are Bad Role Models


Father and Teenage Son Involved In a Shootout That Left One Male Dead and Another Injured

A child’s character is mold as he grows from childhood to adult, by those who have a strong influence in his life. 
Parents need to accept accountability, and responsibility, for teaching their children how to behave toward others.
Unfortunately, we have some parents who are setting bad examples for their children, by engaging in bad behavior with them.

Case in Point: 

A 52-year-old father and his teenage son were involved in a shootout, that left a 24-year-old male dead, and a 19-year-old male injured. This incident occurred, in the early hours on a Saturday morning, when the two young men along with some friends went to the home of the 52-year-old man, and engaged in an argument with his 19-year-old son.

When they drove away, the father and his son pursued them in their vehicle. At some point, they engaged in a confrontation and the shootout occurred. The father was charged with murdering the 24-year-old male, and shooting the 19-year-old male.

*Good parenting molds a boy’s character that will guide him, as he grows from his boyhood into a man. The teachings he receive from those who possesses good characteristic traits, are passed on to him. He in return, will pass them to others.

Questions:

        1.   How do you suggest the father should have handled this situation?
         2.   What example did the father set for his son?

Father Murdered His Children to Avoid Paying Child Support


A 28-year-old father was charged with murdering his 14-month-old daughters, to avoid paying child support. The children were killed by their father after he purchased a life insurance policy on each child, and named himself the beneficiary the following day, after his employer started deducting $800 per month, for child support from his paycheck of $2,000.

History:

The father was presently married to another woman, at the time he killed his daughters.
Prior to killing his daughters, the father had been notified that he owed $400 in a second child support case, and a third child support case was pending.


Every parent should try their best to accept their financial responsibilities for their children. A child should never be treated as their parents property.

To make a child feel as though they are property that is a burden for their parent, will cause the child to feel unloved. 

Parents who do not try to make their child comfortable with both parents by sharing everything equal if possible, and treating each other civil, are causing unhappiness to their child who will have unpleasant memories of the parents.
