Even if he serves every single minute, it will never be long enough. This just makes me ill.
The ME said Ivy died from blunt force trauma to the head and had overwhelming injuries to her face, scalp, and thighs. Toxicology reports showed meth in her urine. This abused a beautiful, innocent, 2-year-old baby. He killed her and threw her away like trash.
I don't even have the words to describe how angry this sentence makes me. The only way he should ever leave that prison is in a pine box.

I agree. Kansas seems to give out such light sentences for those who harm children. I just don't get it.

A mother hen. Caring for her brothers. Sounds like Maleah Davis.
Who was caring for Iviona? I hope her siblings are with people that will love and care for them in a stable environment.
