Wow, in the description of Baby Kate it states that she was 12 pounds.
12 pounds. It just hit me like a ton of bricks how very helpless you are at 12 pounds. At the mercy of those who are supposed to care for you and keep you safe. Prayers for Baby Kate. Such a sad story.

Was the DNA test for child support purposes?

From what I read in this article, no.
http://www.mlive.com/news/muskegon/i...ington_ba.html
“I wanted him to take a DNA test that day because he didn't want to tell his parents that Kate is his. I was sick of it and said, 'Forget it, I'm not going to keep lying to your parents,' and we figured if he gets the paternity test, then we could show his parents the piece of paper,” Courtland said.

Well now I just don't know aqbout the child support issue. I listened to the 911 call and Ariel, the mom, does mention child support.
http://www.mlive.com/news/muskegon/i...l_made_by.html
I just don't have a good feeling about this case.
And, where was their other child during this? Does she get support for her?

So this poor baby is still missing. I guess I don't understand why more isn't being done as far as attempting to extract information from the father. He is, after all, as far as we know, the last person to be with the baby. And I don't want to speculate too much, but I just wish I was seeing more emotion. Tears? I dunno. I have to tell myself we all handle things differently and maybe somebody is in shock, but something definitely stinks for raw fish in this case.
ok, edited to add that I didn't know the dad was being held in jail. Good. I'm glad of that at least.
*prayers for Baby Kate*

He's in court next week. Things seem quiet on this which is very sad.

Is this the only discussion going on about this case?
Sorry, but I always find it so difficult to locate further discussions on cases because of the many categories, so if someone could point me in the right direction, I'd appreciate it.
Thanks for the new info. Sounds like LE has their man. It absolutely sickens me that he may have removed the infant's clothes first. What kind of twisted sicko does that?
Geez, I probably need a break from all this. I think this is all pent up fruSHtration from Caylee's and Celina's cases, to name a few.

From my understanding, the mother and "father" were still basically together; so no it was not for child support purposes. As another poster included, the article stated that the mom wanted to prove it to his parents. He was still wanting to deny to his parents. She was sick of lying. Also, I wonder if he did have a bit of doubt - otherwise, why would he want to pay for a DNA test. These kids having babies are just so young!

Actually, the mother DID state that this was also about child support. See below.
