Parents Accused Of Beating Child To Death

[GiveMeFreedom]

CHICO (CBS13)

Prosecutors say that Butte County parents used quarter inch plastic tubing to beat their seven-year-old adopted daughter to death. Apparently, they got the idea from a fundamentalist based Christian group, which promotes using this as a way of training children to be obedient.

Three years ago, Kevin Schatz and his wife Elizabeth did something so noble, a Chico television station featured them; the pair decided to adopt three children from Liberia. Now, they're accused of killing one of them because prosecutors say she mispronounced a word.

Butte County District Attorney, Mike Ramsey, says for several hours, the seven-year-old was held down by Elizabeth and beaten dozens of times by Kevin on the back of her body which caused massive tissue damage.

The District Attorney points to a book written by a Tennessee Evangelist named Michael Pearl, who the Schatz's have told police they were following.

Pearl's website, Nogreaterjoy.org, suggests "A swift whack with the plastic tubing would sting but not bruise. Give ten licks at a time, more if the child resists."

4. From the same article:

"Not surprising, but all nine children thought these alleged beatings were normal, and they can't understand why police have arrested their parents."

How sad is that? And how screwed up will those kids be? I hope they get the psychological help they are going to need.

6. Life, no chance of parole.

That's punishment, if found guilty. Enjoy prison, sick fucks.

7. Have been fuming about this all day...these so called parents need to

be put away for a long, long time. And shouldn't something be done to the people who advocate
such punishments?......z
