Another little one dead after being left with the "boyfriend"

When will these "mothers" learn to better guard and protect their kids?

Ain't reading that. My blood pressure doesn't need it.

I'm starting to believe in public execution.

Yep. Not reading that today.

This right here is the reason I could never be a police officer. And no, I'm not reading that either.

Let's bring stoning back. Ammo is expensive, and I know where there are lots and lots of rocks. And yes, I did read, hence my repy.

Doesn't CPR cause a fractured sternum?

It doesn't explain the rest of the damage. I'm not trying to excuse the guy.
But I thought CPR causes damage, even if done right.
So I don't see listing that damage.

Yes, it does. Especially on infants.

From the article:
"Rowe met his bail Wednesday and is due in court next Monday, WPTA reported. Homicide charges have not been filed."

Two three problems with this. Obviously bail is NOT oppressive - there shouldn't have been any set at all. Secondly, no homicide charges filed. Um, it's pretty obvious that the child didn't injure himself. Thirdly and not mentioned, why is the egg donor (I refuse to call her a mother) not being charged with child endangerment at the very least, and possibly as an accomplice to murder?

No, it doesn't if done correctly. Been there, done that, with DoggyMama's daughter in our driveway.

It can, especially on infants, if it's done incorrectly.

• Rib fractures are the most common complication of CPR.
• Additionally, the chest bone, or sternum, also endures pressure and stress during chest compressions and can fracture as well.

Internal organs lie within the area pressured by chest compressions. As the chest is compressed during CPR, ribs and chest bones can break, puncturing the lungs and liver 2. Additionally, internal bruising of the heart and liver can occur

CPR - You Can Do It

What if I crack a rib when I do CPR?

• Frequently ribs are broken with the pressure CPR places on the sternum. Some studies quote up to 30% of cardiac arrest victims have broken ribs as a result of CPR. This happens more frequently the older the victim since the cartilage is less compliant and the bones more easily crackable. But remember, it's better to have a cracked rib than be dead.

Will CPR always save a life?

• No, in fact, most instances of CPR for cardiac arrest are unsuccessful.

In one of my MANY CPR trainings, the instructor told us, in the movies you rarely hurt the person and that it usually saves them.
Then he told us, it's the opposite. That you usually damage a rib, or sternum, and that CPR actually rarely works. But rarely is better than ZERO.

Yeah I didn't want to jump to conclusions but the broken sternum and organ damage could be explained by a layperson going way too hard on unnecessary CPR on a small child. Perhaps he reacted to a real or perceived medical emergency and inadvertently killed the child attempting to resuscitate them.

But I don't have the actual evidence from the scene or from the autopsy, just this article.

Once again, I am NOT excusing him.
Merely saying you have to be careful with some of the damage listed.

And, as we've seen in shootings and gun related stuff, reporters are notoriously BAD at reporting.

A few hours after he posted bail and was released he was rearrested at his home and more charges files.

Got a link? Not doubting it but I'm interested in hearing more about it.

The guy deserves a fair trial. I hope he gets one.

We don't know what happened, but it is reasonable that we see what looks like the murder of a child and we want to kill the thing that did it.

Agreed sometimes it is most difficult to wait for the facts to be known. Praying for the family.

I see this as the result of improper CPR rather than abuse. Could be wrong, but everything injured is likely within one hand width of an adult.

I have seen hundreds of patients arrive after CPR. I've seen a mainstem bronchus torn off. Frequently rib fx, sternal fractures, popped lungs, and a spleen injury.

Most abuse to kids is on the head/face/extremities. But this guy what, drop kicked the kid in the chest? Palm strike? He said he called 911 and was doing CPR. Going to be very difficult to convict I think unless there's more to the story that we don't know.

We just had a cop lift a car off a woman to save her life. Adrenaline is an amazing thing.

Even the title of this post is placing this story inside a typical narrative, prejudicing those who will read it, or sit on a jury.
