Child Abuse: It's a Growing International Problem

I recently visited a site that literally brought me to tears. I worn you that this is not a post for the weak. I intend on providing as much detail about this incident as possible. Why? Because this is one of the most unimaginable crimes that has been bestowed upon a child. I don't even have the words to describe my emotions.



The story is about an 8 year old child, from Kuala Lumpur, that was abducted, tortured, brutally raped, murdered, and then stuffed in a gym bag. An autopsy revealed that not only was little Nurin Jazlin beaten, battered, and bruised from head to toe, but several items, including a cucumber had been shoved into her vaginal area. This is a dispicable crime against anyone, but for an 8 year old child to have to suffer and indure such abuse is heart wrenching, to say the least.



People, the international community must get involved in the fight to stop these cowardly, disgusting crimes against our children. Enough is enough. Why should these babies have to wait for something like this to personally affect you before you become involved? Before you go to sleep tonight, go to the link listed below to review the full story. Next, take a real good look at you own child. Hug her/him, and then get involved...this could very well be your son or daughter.
