Love At It's Finest

I am fascinated by human behavior, and how odd people may be sometimes. As most of you might have noticed, I find interesting articles that deal with random, stupid and eccentric things that people do for example, the parents stunting their child's growth, woman dumping her newborn child in a dumpster, and another woman taking a knife and doing a personal c-section on a pregnant woman who was having delusions that she was pregnant. For my next post I was searching the Internet and came upon this article from knbc4 with the headline reading "Police Say Man Bit Son's Lip Off". These articles that I find keep getting weirder and weirder.

Thy Chan, 26 year old resident of Lowell, Massachusetts was arrested for allegedly biting his 22 month old son's bottom lip off. The Police Superintendent Kenneth Lavallee told a local newspaper that officers were called to a Lowell Apartment complex after an unidentified person said a child's lip had been bitten off.

As the officers entered the apartment, they found a child covered in blood and found the bottom lip nearby. The officers gave the paramedics the bottom lip in hopes of reattaching it at the hospital. Chan was found upstairs in the apartment acting erratically, officers believe he may b under the influence of drugs. You think?!

Luckily the young child is okay, and is now being evaluated at Lowell General Hospital. It is not known if the lip has or can be attached. Also officers did not release the relation of the infant to Chan.

Chan is facing charges of mayhem, assault, battery on a child, and domestic assault. According to the Department of Social Services, the family has no prior convictions with this department.

Regardless of prior convictions with the law, this man should be put behind bars. I thought the incident of Ozzy Osbourne cutting the head off a bat was awful until I read this. It seems pretty frequent that we hear in the news how parents or guardians neglect their children whether they leave their child in a car on a hot summer day for hours on end or sexual abuse. Children and infants are a target because they are helpless and can't really defend themselves. Who knows what kind of drugs this man was on but he should be prosecuted to the highest degree. If it is released that Chan is the father of this child he should loose all custody. When bad things happen to children strangers say "where are the parents?", well in this case maybe having the child stay with the parents isn't the best idea.
