Shudder - I didn't really get past the headline before closing the window. If I have nightmares I'm blaming you, Tribesy

[master of the puppets]

ugh, holy hell man a little warning, really the first 3v lines were enough to stop me from going to any old folks home ever.

btw whats the Irish Examiner, is it the irish version of the amewrican Inquirer, cause that would make me feel so much better.

[Marshal Murat]

Well, I guess this, ah never mind.

I feel the need to cleanse my soul by fire after reading this.

Or become a liberal, whichever comes first.

[Lemur]

In my humble opinion, any thread that has to do with abuse of children should come with some kind of warning. Just a thought.

[master of the puppets]

yeah, and that is really really abusive. *shiver*

btw whats the Irish Examiner, is it the irish version of the amewrican Inquirer, cause that would make me feel so much better.

Nope its nothing like the Amerian Enquirer .
Its a national broadsheet based down in the Rebel county .

Can I submit a nomination for the 'creepiest image of 2007 award?' I know it's just February, but I don't see that getting beaten.

[Evil_Maniac From Mars]

Well, I suppose it's not called the Examiner for nothing.

[Mooks]

Now, for the rest of that poor kids life whenever the question gets asked "Who took your virginity?" hes going to lie.

Well, I suppose it's not called the Examiner for nothing.

The story started life as an AP piece. Tribesman's Examiner just picked it up off the wire.

More details,from a local Oregon paper here (sorry for the 'print-friendly' version; if your printer menu pops up, just click: 'cancel').

Oregon Department of Human Services officials said Buoy was not a foster parent for the agency. It's not clear why or under what circumstances the child was placed in Buoy's care. The executive director of Next Door could not be reached.

In the summer of 2004, she took in the 11-year-old boy for three months. She told detectives that she heard the boy had been abandoned as a baby. When she baked him a birthday cake, the boy said no one had ever made him a cake for his birthday.

I wondered about the Foster Home bit - after several scandals a few years back,I thought most state Social Services offices had tightened up on candidate screening & checking. Seems this case was somehow less formal/unofficial - and might need looking into.
