3 accused of letting rats chew toes off Ohio baby

Tue Jul 21, 10:48 pm ET
WAVERLY, Ohio – Three people have been accused of letting rats bite a 6-week-old girl and chew off her toes at their cluttered Ohio mobile home.

Pike County prosecutor Rob Junk says the baby's toes on one foot were gone when sheriff's deputies went to the home Sunday after receiving an anonymous tip.

The baby is in fair condition at a Columbus hospital.

A married couple and the 18-year-old boyfriend of the baby's mother are charged with felony child endangering. They were in court for an initial hearing Tuesday. They're jailed pending a plea hearing in two weeks.

The prosecutor says they all lived in the mobile home west of Piketon, a village noted for its old uranium enrichment plant.

He says the baby's mother is a juvenile. He won't identify her or say if she'll be charged.

The hills have eyes?

Really sickening, the end must be near!

This should be a fairly simple case, give all 3 of them the death penalty but let rats chew them to death. I don't consider it cruel and unusual punishment given what they did to the baby.

Perhaps the toes in question were surplus to requirements.

There are times when I find the limitations (especially as currently interpreted) on "Cruel and Unusual Punishments" absolutely maddening. If guilty, they deserve a nice cold, dirty, rat-infested hole of their own for their time-out.

I only know one guy who did this. Tied his target to a chair and video taped the rats eating him alive. It was the Iceman a hit man for the mob he's dead now. The guy eaten by the rats and also the Iceman ( Richard Kuklinski )

While horrific, what does this have to do with national politics and laws? Lounge please...
