The inquiry into the death of two year old Ainlee Labonte has just reported. The little girl died in January with 64 scars, scabs and brusies on her tiny body which weighed less than 22 pounds. Her "parents" Leanne Labonte and Dennis Henry were jailed for manslaughter and cruelty with sentences of 10 and 12 years. It appears that health and social workers who should have protected her were "paralysed by fear" of her violent parents. An expert in child abuse stated and I quote, "She probably experienced more pain than anyone can imagine....we can measure pain against joy. There doesn't appear to have been any joy in her life....There must have been a point at which she just gave up. If you cry and no one comes, you must give up."
Photos of the little girl show a beautiful child with a lovely smile. The inhuman scum who called themselves her "parents" should never be allowed to ses the light of day again. Instead in all probablity, with "good" behaviour, they will more than likely be out in 6 to 7. This is one of the few times in my life, I feel like crying with rage and believe me I have seen some shocking things in my time.
