Little boy is Found Dead in Utah Canyon After Going for a Summer Visit with His Mother

This will make your blood boil!! The HORRIFIC incident that was 4-year-old Ethan Stacy's death came after his mother got a summer visit with the boy as part of a custody arrangement. According to CBS News, Ethan's biological father once wrote in a custody petition that Ethan's mother, Stephanie Sloop, was unstable and had abandoned the child. However, the judge who approved their divorce settlement never saw this document. The father, Joe Stacy, eventually agreed to share custody of the boy, with Ethan spending the school year with his father and summers with his mother.

Just eight days after her divorce was final, Ethan's mother remarried in Utah. Stephanie and Nathanael Sloop locked the badly beaten child in his bedroom while they drove 10 miles for the ceremony, according to police.

DISGUSTING!!!!!!!!!

We can't imagine what this father is going through.

When will this trend stop??

News station KMPH out of Fresno reports that 23-year-old Gabriela Castaneda Espinosa has been arrested on suspicion of murder after revealing to investigators that she had drowned her 2-month-old baby boy.

According to KMPH, she was taken to a hospital, where she confessed to the crime. Police visited the Economy Inn where the young mother had been staying and found the 2-month-old baby not breathing. Deputy Chief Robert Nevarez of the Fresno PD stated that the officers had attempted CPR, but the infant was pronounced dead at the scene. Aside from the baby boy, a 4 and 6-year old were also found in the motel room, unharmed.

"Espinosa has no criminal history, no history of mental illness. The kids have no history with Child Protective Services. This is a unique situation to have this happen so suddenly and so unexpectedly," said Chief Nevarez.

How disturbing is that!? What was this girl doing with so many children....... or even just babysitting someone else's kids?

Tragic.

Misty Croslin Knows What Happened to Haleigh, Says Her Grandmother

On Friday HLN news programs revealed that investigators searching the St. John's river for clues in the Haleigh Cummings homicide case retrieved two cinder blocks from the water. The finding is significant due to the fact Misty Croslin's grandmother had provided a theory of what could've happened to the little girl, based on information her granddaughter allegedly confessed to her. The theory involved a rope and cinder block. In addition, back when Haleigh vanished in February 2009, Misty Croslin told police that she awoke to the back door propped wide-open, held in place by a cinder block. The blocks, along with additional evidence have been transported for forensic analysis.

Flora Hollars has said that she believes Misty had nothing to do with Haleigh's disappearance/possible homicide. She stated on Jane-Velez Mitchell's news program 'Issues' that she believed her granddaughter's account of what happened that night, a story that involved a crazed cousin of Misty and Tommy's named Joe Overstreet. Overstreet allegedly stormed into the trailer that night, and demanded a gun belonging to Ronald Cummings. Misty realized the gun was not there, and in retaliation, she says Joe snatched little Haleigh and held a knife to her throat.
