From the LVRJ: A 7-year-old boy died after his stepfather and mother beat him on
consecutive days for not reading the Bible and failing to do his
homework, according to a Las Vegas police report released Monday.
Markiece
Palmer, 34, and Dina Palmer, 27, were arrested Thursday and face
charges of murder and multiple counts of child abuse, neglect or
endangerment with substantial bodily harm, according to Clark County
court documents....
The boy had bruising over much of his body, including arms, abdomen,
back, legs, thighs and buttocks. He had open wounds on his buttocks. He
also had massive brain swelling, the report said.
The report said Dina Palmer told police that on Tuesday she struck her
son with a paddle, her hand and a belt on the lower back. Markiece
Palmer told investigators that he struck his stepson on the buttocks
with a belt the same day. The punishment delivered by both adults was
because the 7-year-old had not read a Bible chapter....
The Palmers told police that Roderick was unresponsive on Thursday
morning. Dina Palmer called her pastor for guidance, who told her to
take the child to the hospital, the report said. According to the police
report, the couple didn't call 911 for more than an hour after the
child was found unresponsive. http://www.lvrj.com/news/mother-stepfather-arrested-after-beating-7-year-old-boy-who-died-181940871.html
These people were not Christians, they are idiots, and if convicted of the crimes, they ought to spend a lot of time in prison to pray about what they did to their child.
