This is one of those times when I wonder if "an eye for an eye" might not be a wise choice for punishment for this beastly individual. What if he were to be sentenced to the same treatment he imposed upon that child? That poor baby. Three months old - OMG. What did he do? Cry too loudly? Dear God!!!!!!!!!!!
