This poor little guy

Doctors airlift boy with 42 needles stuck in him - Welcome to Charter.net

Oh my gosh--I couldn't even read past the first two sentences. That is just plain cruel. I hope they are in jail for a very long time.

How horrific. I can't understand how someone can harm a child.

WTF is wrong with people? That's sick.

"The boy's mother, a maid, took him to a hospital in the small northeastern city of Ibotirama last Thursday, saying he was complaining of pain. Three days later, after X-rays revealed many of the needles, doctors moved him to a larger hospital in the nearby city of Barreiras.

X-Rays after child's 3 days in the hospital with pain complains.
Free health care, anyone?

This is worse than I thought. I didn't know they were stuck INSIDE of his body. How cruel!!

I know I saw this earlier and when I read the title I was thinking like acupuncture of something, when I realized they were inside of him I couldn't believe it. I read it a few times just to make sure I understood what they were saying. This is just ridiculous I don't understand how someone could do that. :sad:

It's stories like this that remind me that pure evil DOES exist in this world!

Sick, sick, sick.

I pray that little boy recovers and finds a wonderful, loving home.

That is awful. From the sounds of it I wish they would release them in the center of town and let them handle these sickos.

I fail to see how his mother did not notice pucture wounds on a 2 year old where the step father inserted the needles.

That is just so sad and whenever I read one of these horrible stories I gather my children and hug them a little harder. I read one yesterday about a mother putting her three year olds bottom in boiling water because he was constipated plus cigarette burns found on his feet. I just cannot imagine!
