Danny Platt said he was under a lot of pressure. He apparently owed his estranged wife $4,000 in back child support.

But there were no signs of stress when the 22-year-old father, accused of killing his two-year-old son over the child support debt, went to pick up his little boy for a weekend visit, his mother said Sunday.

On Friday, several hours after her son, Ja’Shawn, left, Daniella Powell received a phone call. It was Platt. He said their son had been kidnapped and quickly hung up.

Powell called back in disbelief. She said her husband gave different accounts of the kidnapping. She asked if he had called police. He said he had, but when she called authorities, they hadn’t heard from him.

Police said Platt made up an elaborate story about his son being kidnapped by three men armed with AK-47 rifles late Friday night. Platt eventually confessed to the killing, telling authorities he “would kill either his wife or his child before he paid child support,” Police Superintendent Warren Riley said Saturday.

Later, he led police to the boy’s body. He has been booked on a charged of first-degree murder.

On Saturday night, as he was being led to jail in handcuffs, Platt said he was under a lot of pressure and acknowledged killing his son, but disputed the slaying occurred solely over the debt to his estranged wife.

“I’m sorry about killing my baby,” Platt told reporters. “I had a whole bunch of reasons.”

It’s not clear whether Platt has an attorney. Telephone messages left Sunday for New Orleans police and the coroner’s office were not immediately returned.

Powell said Sunday the two never had any violent fights and Platt wasn’t going through any emotional problems.

“He knew what he was doing. He killed my two-year-old son,” she said.

Powell said her son’s body was found in a plastic bag at a park. She and her family were busy preparing her son’s funeral arrangements.

“I don’t have money for anything. We are trying to come up with it now,” Powell said.

Police said Saturday in announcing the arrest that Platt hadn’t seen his son in quite some time. Powell said Platt had taken the boy trick-or-treating on Halloween, but acknowledged they hadn’t spoken for a couple of months. However, she didn’t think it was odd Platt wanted to spend the weekend with his son.

Ja’Shawn was excited about seeing his father, she said. “He went to the door and said, ‘Daddy’ when he came to pick him up,” she said.

    nobody seems to understand that the state is not doing their job to moniter who is paying child support or how its being spent. im a father of 2 and i pay child support for both of my kids. my sons mom lives off of the state and gets everything she wants, she has no job of plains on getting one. i dont make enough money to feed myself, all my money goes to my kids. their mothers spend the money on themselfs before they buy anything for out kids. but always always always when my kids need something their mom calls and says OUR kids need this or OUr kids need that. when i want to spend time with Our kids their moms dont want me to. Its always MY child needs to stay home or My child dont need to be around your girlfriend. but its 100% firn for them to be around your boyfriend? my point is males are treated less than fair in this country. just because males are supposed to be the bread makesrs for the family thats not always true, i would love to sit at home and get checks from thst state every 2 weeks and every month. how many people wouldnt like that? but i work hard enough to still be broke. and i do buy things for my kids outside of the support, but to their moms its not good enough. cant see how anything isnt good enough for someone who doesint work. so wat im saying is the system really needs to be changed to make life for everyone fair. whatever parent is receving the support should have a full time job like the person paying the support. or people will eather be going to jail left and right over money, and killing people. so if all the people who pay support are in jail or dont have jobs, will end up in jail. where is the money gone to come from them??? dont make since to lock someone up for some years thats not paying child support, that puts them more behind and the other parent has a lesser chance of getting any kind of support. good luck to thous who struggle to pay i know its a good thing you do pay it no matter how much and to thoes who dont pay just get a low paying job and make the state take from that, and get a better job and dont tell the other parent. and for thoes who are thinking of other ways its not even an option.

    I feel we as women should becareful who we sleep with if you see things before you engage in more with this man then he ain’t the one for you or the future of any children with him. Nobody is perfect but i think if alot of women think more with our heads than our hearts and sexual parts we may be better off. Don’t get me wrong sometimes it is hard to tell who is who or what they may do in the future but i feel if you seek someone that is stable in God and his money things could be different for us. It is sad when so many kids have to suffer at the hands of their parents when then they didn’t ask to come into the world from the start. God bless this mother and may God look down on this man soul. We all need to hug our kids and and tell them everyday how much we love them no matter what is going on around us.

    This is sad but my sons father had this attitude and to be honest still does. That since we are not together he should not have to pay. To make matters worse he has been married twice since then. But if he catches wind that I am dating he stops paying. The only reason he is doing the right thing now is because his current wife keeps on him about paying. I think the world of his wife and when he goes for his weekend visits I know he is safe and well cared for because of her. It’s like she is my sons other parent and what really makes me appreciate her is that she is white and my son is black.

    Its sad that the child had to die because of child support..and secondly, i disagree with the previous person, i dont see a penny of mines, and he works, i took care of my daughter alone for 15 yrs and still doing it, and yes, i work hard, i didnt make her by myself, i shouldnt have to take care of her by myself, and hes behind on his childsupport. Hes married, i am not, i dont keep her away from him, he does it on his own, but she doesnt want for anything….before posting something you have to realize, everyone is different, maybe u should have found out about the women you were having babies with before you TRY to make every woman out bad…I have met men who makes sure they take care of their children, even if they arent with the woman….what i am saying is everyone is different, and try a spelling check before posting….you dont sound like the brightest person and maybe that is why you get treated the way you do, reap what u sow is what i have to say…..peace

  • http://www.blackplanet.com/dliciousd01/ dliciousd01

    well i think thats so sick stuff there is no excuse to kill your child behind $4000 of back child support and as far as the dude that left the comment about the baby momma’s spending the child support money on there self thats crazy mamybe your baby momma is that type of female but you cant label all because your baby momma is lazy on the other hand im one of those baby momma’s who takes care of her kids on her own my baby daddy is in the rear $15,450 he has never made a payment so if it takes arresting them in order to make them open there eyes and take care of responsibility then im with the state but that goes two ways because there all single men out there raising there kids and the mom is gone and she dosen’t take care of her child support either so the same goes for her so what im saying is people in general need to realize that it takes two to make these kids so it takes two to take care of them so women ,men lets step up and take care of your responsibility they did not ask to be here and my condolences goes out to the POWELL and PLATT family because they are both hurting

  • http://www.blackplanet.com/Shamel_/ Shamel_

    This is truly sad :(. My heart goes out to the mother of this 2 year old boy…a precious angel. Taking care of one’s RESPONSIBILITY should never result in the taking of a life!!! This act was deliberate, cruel and senseless and this bastard should be punished to the FULL EXTENT of the law!!!!

    To comment on Mousey1685 and this case: first of all there is no way on God’s green earth I would ever harm my children because of what someone say I owe. I’ve been locked up for child support due to previous circ**stances due to my background. We as fathers have to find and use other LEGAL OPTIONS that are available to us! We can’t blame the system because it was because mothers had to lean of the system to make sure children have their needs met. So then the system lean on the fathers to repay the money. There would be no need for the child support law if ALL MEN of all races and background take responsibility for their own situations man up and find that opportunity no matter how much it pays to take care of your child/children and get a second job to take care of you until you can do better. I’m not say that there aren’t any women out there taking advantage of the system because they are out there. If we as father can make peace with the mothers (without trying to screw them every chance we get) come up with and agreed amount to them or buy what our children need when they need it then there is no need for the system to be involved in your life. Weak men cry about not being given an option, A STRONG MAN LOOKS FOR, FINDS, AND TAKE ADVANTAGE OF THE OPTIONS THAT HE FOUND WITHIN THE LINES OF THE LAW!

    I’ve heard this story on the news, but reading this bulletin has given me more details on what happened.. I am in complete shock.. My heart is truley broken over this..

    I will pray for baby Ja’Shawn, the Powell and Pratt family.. I will also pray that the Lord will have mercy on Pratts twisted soul..

    for all thoes who responded to my comment thank you. yes its very sad that a child had to die over somethin so small. just think the young boy is in a better place, he wont have to deal with his parents fighting over wat who owes who or watever else is going on for the next 16 years. not saying its a good thing but we dont know wat was going on between the 2 of them. and going to jail really wont get someone to pay support. just makes it worse.

I feel deeply sorry for that child’s mother and father’s family cause’ the s**t wasn’t called for! i hope this story wakes some of these babymothers up! cause’ whether if your babyfather wants to or don’t to be be bothered with the child or children, you don’t know how his mindset is. it just burned me up knowing he would kill that poor baby over some funky a*s $4,000 dollars, that’s pathetic as hell. i pray to god he has mercy on his soul! and honestly i hope he repent and give his life over to god, cause hell is hot, and when he dies eventually, satan is going to greet him with open arms!

This is a shame please ladies choose your man baised on something besides his status get to know him. Just because he is a baller dosent mean a thing.

I truly believe, that there should be a death penalty for people who intentionally kill children. They are innocent! They have nothin but love to share and they are the future. This man was a coward and I hope when he go to prison, they give him a warm welcome for the crime he committed!

  • http://www.blackplanet.com/philosjoe/ philosjoe

    This is definitely the worst case scenario. Just want to remind every parents to TALK to your kids. Teach them the value of money. Show them your bills. Tell them how much you make. Give the alternative. For the kids will see the value of honest living.

    I do not have any kids. Therefore, I do not have to pay child support. I do not have headaches on how to pay child support. I dont have to worry about mothers calling me names.

    Forgive me. But Please teach the children the value of money. This is PREVENTION.

    Otherwise, I dislike offending folks. Otherwise, let it be known that there are some families who love welfare. That is about as low as anyone can go.

My sons are 22 & 19 & their dad owes me over $20,000 in past due child support & he’s STILL PAYING NOW!!! He can’t escape paying until he’s paid in full(NOBODY can 4 that matter!!MALE OR FEMALE!!!). He doesn’t file taxes or have a license because he’s behind so if he killed either one of my boys the debt doesn’t go away(but he would because I’d cut his ass up in little bitty pieces REAL SLOW!!!!)All he did was cut short a life that could have been a successful, productive citizen! I hope every time this IDIOT closes his eyes he see his son’s face!!!! I don’t feel sorry 4 him at all!!!!!!!!! My prayers go out 2 the mother & the family. Stuff like this REALLY pisses me off!!

    There has to be a better solution than Child Support Enforcement. This is not new, it just hit home for some of you. Dont let money take the place of parenting (if you can). For many there is no other way-but maybe for you it could be different.

  • http://www.blackplanet.com/oklawoman/ oklawoman

    If he wanted to end a life and stop paying child support, he should have ended HIS OWN LIFE!! The child did not ask to be born! This was an innocent child with a mother and a family who loved him! A sweet innocent child that will never fulfill his Mother’s hopes or dreams for his future! This demon, I’m not going to call him a man, because he is evil took his own child’s life over MONEY!! And to yungdon7900, it’s not about being a black or white man, it’s about the evilness of this world and the horrible, selfish acts people do to those that they suppose to love and care about!

This is the byproduct of giving up the role of the father and the black community to welfare, and allowing each other to hbe misled and half step. It will get worse unless we decide to reject the morals the U.S. is engraining in us. We have just about sold our souls for some U.S. B.S…..

    It saddens me to read some s**t like this.. But money makes certain people do satans deeds. I for one dont agree with child support because im in my kid life everyday and i dont want the state or this country telling me how i need to hold down my kid. but ill never and i mean never in a million years or infinity think about taking my precious sons life over money. because at the end of the day its the smile of my little one that makes me rich. money is nothing but paper and would be so forever, its we humans that gives it value. May the lord watch over this kid family in the time of need and may he welcome this kid with open arms to the richness of the heavens. This guy would get his, and we dont gotta kill him because we aint God.

    what did that 2yr. old little boy do other than love his dad and be so excited to see him??? i have no sympathy or empathy for any man or woman that kills an innocent child. as far as i’m concerned he’s no human being. he’s just a monster who has no heart and he will get what he desreves when he goes to prison, because we all know that there is one thing that is not accepted by other prisoners and thats child killers!!!!

    Its a shame that he would go pick that baby up jst to do what he did. Condolences goes out the mother and her family. He is a trifling excue of a man. You can produce a child, but not provide for that same child? Is this what the world is coming to- our african american army being slaughtered at the hand of the trusted? It’s called treason! What they should do for Mr Platt is handcuff his behind, put him in a trashbag ad let him leave this world. The problem is that that is too good of a punishment.

    I had a real bad Day at work one day one of the worst days of my carreer and I went to go pick up my son from day care. He was so happy to see his Father (me) he ran around the room to tell all the children This (he shouted) is my Dad!He was so proud to call me Daddy.The joy in his voice brought me to tears and I cant imagine ever putting my hands on him to hurt him like that! Men, Fathers, and Baby Daddy’s spend time with your children and the money will never matter! Lock him up for life the correctional system will take care of him they dont tolerate child killers!

    “I’m sorry about killing my baby,” Platt told reporters. “I had a whole bunch of reasons.”

    This is the most digusting comment I have ever read. I can’t even seem to bring myself to write any further on the matter because it is senseless to spend my time commenting on him. My heart and prayers go out to the family of this tragedy.

    What kind of MADNESS is this?? What did the child ever do. He didn’t ask to be brought into this world. He is a poor excuse for a man and his Father should’ve ejactualted on the sheets instead of in his Mother.

    He has to live with this for the rest of his life, and a Mother will never hold her baby in her arms ever again.I know that there are two level of justice there is court justice and then there is prison justice.
    I”ll sum it up this way Prisoners hate these types of people:
    Child Molesters,Rapist, Women beaters, and Men who kill women or children. May GOD have mercy on his soul, and in Hell he shall lift up his eyes because he shed innocent blood.

  • http://www.blackplanet.com/Kenesis/ Kenesis

    It is sad that a young man like him self would believe that he had to erase a life to erase a debt. Many times panic comes with a lack of information. Did he have a job? Did he live with someone else? Many times the media will come up with extras to make the killer more of an example than an ass. Murder is wrong as wrong is the word. But, As many of those fathers know the mother might have pressured an unstable man. Nagging does not help ladies and gentlemen. It is not all their fault. But, i do believe the pressure from “You better,” or ” You need to be.” Can really put pressure on a young man or woman who has the lack of mental stability to know better. Murder is Murder. NO EXCUSE. Even if it is justifiable. But where did the sanity go in between time. I’ve had custody of my 12 year old daughter ever since i divorced her mother 7 years after my daughter’s birth. I know both sides. And i collect child support. Know the rules. Those that know always win.

  • http://www.blackplanet.com/Darry2003/ Darry2003

    As I have stated to many of my peers the government should’nt have to mndate through law and assign fatherhood. A man should innately know to do his fatherly duties. If he doesn’t I believe the social shame that he feels and is placed upon him would be enough for him to crawl back from where he came. No man should be forced to take care of a child; yes I know it sounds odd but think about this…..How do you think the child’s mother feel knowing that she had a passive hand in the deed. If she’s like so many women who flaunt taking their child’s father to court for financial support then we know she feels horrible. Long story short….. to all the single mothers I’ve had the pleasure or meeting who are doing it on their own and literally have their own God bless you because without you our race would cease to exist and we’d be in even worse shape than we are now!!!!!

    When I read this story, I nearly broke out in tears. How dare this man take the life of his child, who didn’t ask to be brought into this world in the first place. Instead of killing this baby, if he didnt want to have the responsbility he could have just moved on with his life just like all of the other dead beat ni99as out there. So now instead of serving a sentence for not his paying child support, he will be in jail for the rest of his life for killing his own child, how backwards is that? And you know what that sick S.O.B deserves everything he gets, becasue he couldn’t understand what a blessing a child is. I hope he rots in jail. Oh, and don’t drop the soap.

    I cant believe these post Like it was the mothers fault he killed the child she could have nagged him till his head fell off if he doenst have it they cant get it if he had a child then he should be doing with out the law making him its hard out here for a single mother married people with good jobs are down in debt he so he had to think less of his self to make a statement he” kill her or the child to not pay child support how sad is he human or just plain old stupid now he has nothing and this is what are community of black MEN HAVE REDUCED TO we use to be so strong in family value

  • http://www.blackplanet.com/krystal78758/ krystal78758

    Yeah that is sad. And you are right it isnt the mother’s fault. Life is about choices you lay down and make a baby you have to take care of the child. We all have stress. Thats no excuse. He should get the maximum. That is a horrific thing he did. Everyone keep the mother and her family in there prayers.

  • http://www.blackplanet.com/Stormyweathers25/ Stormyweathers25

    Sorry to sound harsh but there is no excuse for killing a child. Of course the man could of been stressed (by bills, life and baby mothers) but do we all go around killing things that make our life stressful I think not. This was a poor excuse to live a free life. Perhaps I am judging the man harshly, but that’s how I see it. I am tired of men and women getting into beds for pure sexual gratification and not thinking about all the consequences that come along. Later down the road they TAKE ALL their frustrations and anger out on something they HELP to create. It’s ridiculous and beyond incoherent in my mind. This is why parenting classes and other things need to be mandated. This is why people need to learn other ways of controlling stress and having outlets for it. This is why people need to think before they get into bed with another. You are dabbling with something that’s precious and beautiful. The birth of a child and the raising of one is beyond anything else I can imagine in this world. Yes, all births aren’t planned, but I believe some people are just ill-equipped to have them. They don’t understand that your life is no longer just your life. You live for that little one calling you “mommy” or “daddy”. I’m sorry but this man needs some serious help. I have always believed that someone who would take the life of another to end a problem needs to serious mental evaluation and are for a lack of better words a “cop out”

  • http://www.blackplanet.com/Stormyweathers25/ Stormyweathers25

    People are on here blaming everyone but the man who killed his son. That’s the problem. Are people for real with this “no child support” attitude? IF SOME MEN & WOMEN would take care of their responsibilities than there would be no need for the legal guardian to go to court to receive rightful money for the child. Yes, their are parents who lie and cheat the system so they can live a lavish life, but what about the mothers and fathers that can not support the child on their own. It takes two people to make a child I believe it takes two to raise the child (except in rare and unfortunate occasions). Please stop making excuses for the man, he should of been fighting in court or making an agreement with the mother so that something could be worked out. He took the easy and horrible way out. He has to deal with it.

I know I don’t. That little boy didn’t ask to be born, nor did he ask for the child support. All he wanted was to be loved, and this is what happened to him. People really need to be more cautious of who they let in their beds and bodies. My heart goes out to the family.

    What in the world does “….the system still bringing down brothers…”posted at 7:54pm have to do with this BROTHER killing his own son over child support?? You speak of a man teaching his son morals,respect, and honor. Where is the morality that was being taught here? What about the respect that the 2 year old was learning here?? And what honor is being shone by killing a 2 year old boy by his own father because the father decided he did’nt want to pay child support. He was only $4,000 in behind. He helped bring that child into the world, he should have been man enough to support and help raise the child. My brothers lets hold each other accountable for what we do, whether it be good or bad. Lets stop blaming everyone else for our wrongdoing. If we want to be called a man. Let us stand up and be men, and lead by example. Show the repect, the morality, the honor

As a soldier in Vietnam, I saw it and hated it; I detest it as Israel continues to indiscriminately kills children in Garza; the mindless death of African children via starvation and war; the insane deaths of kids killing kids via gang violence; or individual idiots like this who picks on “Gifts from God” just because he is too lazy to make a living for his son. He wasn’t too lazy to “make a son”. I have absolutely NO sympathy for this idiot or ANYTHING that might happen to him.

  • http://www.blackplanet.com/everymansdream9/ everymansdream9

    I agree with whomever made the post before me. The system is not the only reason why Black men and women are divided. It is the man that makes the decisions not to handle himself as such and sometimes women enable this behavior.
    If a child is made, he/she needs to be taken care of accordingly. This does not include welfare, section 8 etc.
    When a man does not assist in taking care of the child he made, child support may be necessary.
    What happened between the 60s and now, that it became acceptable for men to not be men? When did it become acceptable to father multiple children and not take care of them? When did it become acceptable for women to support able bodied men who refuse to work, take careb of home and be the head that GOD called them to be? Yet they want all these priveleges that real men deserve.
    How do we repair this?

She has to go out and work and be her son’s mother and father. She can’t roam the streets b/c she has a son to take care of. She has to provide for her son b/c no one else will.

THESE STUPID MEN WHO THINK THERE LITTLE MONEY IS SUCH A BIG DEAL,SHOULD THINK BEFORE THEY GIVE A WOMEN THERE SPERM.SOMEBODY SHOULD STAY HOME AND TAKE CARE OF THE CHILDREN.THATS WHY THIS WORLD IS SO MESSED UP TODAY.GODS WRATH IS COMING SOON.NOBODY WANTS TO LIVE RIGHT ANY MORE.NOBODY CARE ABOUT OTHER PEOPLE,THIS WORLD IS TRUELY SAD.THIS WAS NEVER WHAT THE LORD WANTED TO HAPPEN.! ! ! WERE IS THE LOVE PEOPLE ? ? ?
    THANK YOU LORD JESUS FOR THE MEN WHO DO SUPPORT AND TAKE CARE OF THERE CHILDREN! AND FOR ALL THE MANY WOMEN WHO HAVE DONE IT,AND STILL DOING IT.IN JESUS NAME AMEN.Nannette FROM Colorado

    THAT’S DEEP!!! I COULD IMAGINE THE THE DEMONS THAT INTERFERED THIS MAN’S SPIRIT TO TAKE HIS CHILD’S LIFE WITHOUT THE THOUGHT OF RIGHT FROM WRONG. THAT CHILD HAD NOTHING TO DO WITH THAT. CHILD SUPPORT IS FOR THE CHILD, IN THIS CASE THAT WAS BETWEEN THE TWO PARENTS POSSIBLE COMMUNICATION. HE PROBABLY WAS PAYING HIS CHILD SUPPORT. SOME WOMEN LIKE TO USE THAT S**T AS A WEAPON ESPECIALLY WHEN IT’S OVER. THE WILLY LYNCH METHOD!!!!( HOW TO CHANGE THE COMMUNICATION IN A BLACK FAMILIES HOME)….BOTTOM LINE, I FOUND GOD IN THIS SITUATION, NIGGA YOU SUCCEED SATIN’S WORK, YOU NEED LIFE IN PRISON….YOU COULD OF BEEN STRONGER THAN THAT!!!! THAT’S A CHILD FAG:-(

    1st off how in the hell can u think of killin a part of yourself. Have 2 be straight heartless to even consider harming your own child, let alone killin em and saying i had a whole bunch of these reasons. this is the bulls**t right here that gives good fathers a bad rep. 1st off how in the hell can u think of killin a part of yourself.

    I AM ASTONISHED THAT SOMEONE WOULD STOOP SO LOW AS KILLING THEIR OWN CHILD OVER AN “OBLIGATION” IF HE WAS SO CONCERNED ABOUT THE MONEY HE OWED, HE COULD HAVE TALKED TO C.S AND HIS EX-WIFE ABOUT MAKING SOME KIND OF ARRANGEMENT TO PAY OFF HIS DEBT. I WILL NEVER UNDERSTAND WHY IT IS SOOOOOOO HARD TO TAKE CARE OF YOUR OWN CHILD. WHY IS SOMETHING THAT ONE MUST STRUGGLE WITH? I PRAY FOR THE MOTHER AND THE FATHER. I CAN’T IMAGINE HAVING TO LIVE WITH THE FACT THAT YOU KILLED YOUR SON OVER $4,000. GUILT WILL CERTAINLY EAT HIM UP, IF HE EVEN HAS A CONSCIENCE.

    THIS MAN SHOULD BE PUNISHED FOR HIS SINS. I ALSO PAY CHILD SUPPORT FOR MY CHILDREN AND FOR THE ONES WHO ARE NOT MY BIOLOGICAL. I DO NOT MAKE A DIFFERENCE IN THEM. BUT I DO NOT GET TO SPEND TIME WITH ANY OF THEM. I WILL NEVER BRING HARM TO ANY OF THEM. THEIR MOTHER WILL HAVE TO DEAL WITH WHY DADDY IS NOT AROUND.

What reasons could he possibly have had to kill this poor, innocent child? This just makes me sick to my stomach to know that this sorry piece of %$&^ would rather take the life of his own son than pay child support. He does not even deserve a trial he should be tortured & burned alive. Sorry 4 sounding so brutal but this is just ridiculous.

    Ish like this gets me beyond any normal level of anger! It seems to me like people now a days use children as a bargaining tool. When the father wants his ex back, he’ll use the child as a way back in. And the mother will do the same when it comes to money; pay me, or you wont see your child. What is wrong with human beings today, that they treat children no better than the household pet. Matter of fact some people treat their pets better, than some children get treated. MEN!! You were the first created by God, the first to set foot on earth, the provider, and part of the beauty that is “life creation”. Step up, and do what is right! Not because you have to, or because you need to; but because you want to. Be a role model, so that our future fathers will know the PROPER way to be a father. Teach our future men, to love the greatest gift God could give all of us…THE ABILITY TO CREATE LIFE!!! See it not as a burden, but as a wonderful experience. This story reminds me of a line from a movie ” You know, you need a license to buy a dog, to drive a car – hell, you even need a license to catch a fish. But they’ll let any butt-reaming a**hole be a father”. And the saddest aspect of that line is, how true it is. And i hope that at the very least, this poor child’s death, serves as a wake up call to not only the men out there, but the women as well.

    “O Father of mankind, who hast given unto me these my children, and committed them to my charge to bring them up for Thee, and to prepare them for everlasting life: assist me with Thy heavenly grace, that I may be able to fulfil this most sacred duty and stewardship. Teach me both what to give and what to withhold; when to reprove and when to forbear; make me gentle, yet firm; considerate and watchful; and deliver me equally from the weakness of indulgence, and the excess of severity; and grant that, both by word and example, I may be careful to lead them in the ways of wisdom and true pity, so that at last I may, with them, be admitted to the unspeakable joys of our true home in heaven, in the company of the blessed Angels and Saints.
    Amen”.

    As a parent, when you into your child’s eyes, you should never ever have a thought of hurting your child! It’s said this man went through all these extremes to prevent paying child support, how sick is that? They is certainly more to this story, but at the end of the day,this sick S-O-B will have to pay the ultimate price. He should have to sit in prison with a picture of his son painted on the wall to look at for rest of his worthless life and think, think, think about that child’s precious life and what could have become of it.

THERE IS NOTHING THAT I OR ANYONE ELSE WOULD LIKE BETTER THAN TO SEE YOU BURN IN HELL FOR WHAT YOU DID BUT IT’S NOT OUR JOB TO JUDGE YOU THAT JOB BELONGS TO GOD AND SEEING AS HOW GOD LOVES ALL CHILDREN OF ALL NATIONALITY “VENGEANCE” IS HIS THUS SAITH THE LORD.

He is no way an example of what a man should be towards his child, especially a black male. There is no reason in the world to every take the life of a child especially your child. He will get his when he sent to prison for life or has been given the death penatly. I can’t even write anymore about this idiot due to the fact that all attention should be with the mother and her family. BLACK MEN, PLEASE STEP UP AND BE FATHERS TO OUR CHILDREN!

  • http://www.blackplanet.com/KREAMADON/ KREAMADON

    You know what… I feel sorry for and will pray for that whole family including the father who committed the murder. The 2yr old boy is in a safe place now. Whats interesting is the father was so caught up on the money he owed he couldnt get past it. Not in his own mind at least. He allowed himself to be controlled by a debt that wasnt neccessarily a debt. (if thats the reason he went crazy) Child support arrears can always be foresaken by a judge, with good reason. Its about finding the right help. And he didnt do that. Instead he took it upon himself to solve the problem quick as possible, by making sure the reason he was in debt no longer existed (in his mind). I am a father and had a rough experience with child support in the past. Crazy things go thru your mind when you feel your being treated unfairly. In no way am I comparing myself to this murderer, I just know the mindset he allowed to overtake him. Sad. some fathers wont particiate in their childs life because of child support obligations. This guys seemed to be one of those fathers, commonly reffered to as dead beat dads. In his case, he could have been a father who could not afford an attorney, ad subsequently was taken to the laundrymat by his ex AND the judge presiding over his case. And lets not pretend the judges dont side with the mothers 99% of the time. But Im saying this to say, this man was helpless obviously. Maybe the mother , if she had known how he felt, would have eased some of the burden on him… Maybe. maybe would have been worth a human life had this man given some credence to the term from a positive and optomistic perspective. and thats why I pray for them all. Communication or lack there of, is where our black men experience our most monumental of breakdowns. And this case was no exception.

    so he killed the kid, presumably, cuz he didn’t wanna spend money on child support and, instead, spend it on something else…..

    1nnamillion, that is the most ignorant thing I have heard…for real – it takes 2 to make a child last time I checked…and while I wont place all the blame on the man (after all both parties should take measures) to say to some extent that nothing is due to your own flesh and blood is jacked up.

    Beyond shameful & universally disgusting. This is the garbage of society & he took it out on HIS innocent, defenseless child whose life was worth some child support. What a F-CKING LAZY EVIL COWARD!!! I hope he either is murdered in jail, or rots there for the next 100 years.

    oh my gosh, what is this world comin to, how can you kill your child, because you dont want to pay child support, if you dont want kids be more responsible and wear protection….its even in the bible that people shouldnt have kids unless they can take care of them, i am one of the lucky ones because i was abused alot by my former step dad, it wasnt any kind of regular whoopins either, he use to beat the s**t out of my two younger brothers and I from cuttin me with a knife to sufficating my brother in a couch and hangin my youngest brother upside down by his feet in a closet….where was my mother? yea i know, he would do stuff when she wasnt around but i told her, she knew…but i dont understand why she never got rid of him…there are so many stories that i can tell but im not, we didnt tell her at first because were afraid to speak up, and i remember him tellin me that if i tell her what he does to me he would beat me til my skin peeled off.
    I havent fully forgive my mother but idk, im still confused and angry, even though people think i need to get over it.

    You know this type of s**t is just hard because a child is pure life no sin at all. For that lazy ass bum to kill his child over 4,000 f**king dollars is stupid and evil. What makes a man or a woman feelthat htey dont have to help take care of their flesh and blood. If you dont want to take care of the child dont make it.

You have horrible weather conditionsall around the world and especially the U.S. then you have these mass killings, murder suicides,decapitation, etc, evey single day…….the end is near. then they tell us that global warming is gettin bad. in my anthropology class my teacher says that the population is exceeding the resources and that in probably 50 years we will have destroyed the earth and starved to death. If a scientist that doesnt even believe in God believes that the end is coming then i know it is. All you have to do is watch the news for one day and you will see. Its not just the recession, the country was in a depression and 2 world wars and whats going on now is unheard of.Give Jesus your life today because who knows if you will leave today or when the end comes..However would you truly gamble on your life?

    There’s a good chance that he’ll just be sentenced to life…get tooken to jail…ALIVE…and just eat and read books until he dies of old age. These are some weak ass laws. If that fool (or any other a-hole like him) knew that he would indeed die for his crime, he may have thought twice. He’s a coward because the majority of people who kill their own kids “at least” take their own life afterwards. They should do to him what he obviously wanted to avoid from this…and put his a** in an electric chair.

Are you serious, you never know that child could had been anything when he grew up and 4G’s would be nuthin but change in his pocket…But he takes his life, the child did not make the law for child support to be paid nor did he ask for you to make him, give him a taste of life for a few years then just take it away.

    I don’t understand this was her husband not boyfriend, and he had to have been at least 5 or 6 months behind in child support. the issue is that if he did not want children get a vasectomy or wear a condom, this woman was no hood rat that goes out and get’s pregnant by men after knowing them a week and thinks it’s love. we as black women need to look at why our women are just getting knocked up by anybody just watch maury povich half these chicks don’t even know these men. and cannot take care of themselves and knew the man or boy had no job and was lazy when they got pregnant but get on the show saying now what now i’m taking you to court when the man just wanted a piece of but not you or a baby this has gotta stop, and i feel sorry for the men not this one don’t get me wrong he was her husband what i am saying is that some men and i know some who are good brothers and they get caught up and have kids they did not want and pay there support and the women sit on there butts and do nothing but produce more kids to collect income the mothers should ne just as required to prove that they are putting just as much into the child i have one friend who is a correction officer and his chick was sleeping with neighbor while he was at work and she was living in his house and this B***h is collecting half his check now for one kid and she lays up at home with one brother after the next living off of his money! wake up people…

    I know everyone is not going to agree; however this is a sad event, but everyone that is associated with this is a victim. The father, the mother, and the child. Jesus doesnt love this man no less than he loves someone who is a thief or a adulterer. Absolutely this was a wrong act, but everyone in this needs prayer and forgiveness. Dont count this man out because of the deed. Pray for his soul salvation because we have all fallen short of the glory. No one is below forgiveness. Jesus died for the world, not just for the ones who have never committed the act of murder. Karma is an hindu belief, but what you sow you will reap. so when the time comes, the man will be punished. Please people pray for them all.

    The most disturbing part about this whole ordeal is we are lashing out at and screaming for vengeance against him. The moment he made it up in his mind to murder is own child, his mind entered into insanity. No matter what his demeanor was when he picked up his son, he was already insane. Whatever is done to him will not effect him whatsoever because of his mental state. We should be upset with, and lashing out at the child support system that has orchestrated these type of situations,as well as the separation of families, especially minority families for some time now. It’s easy to say “get a job”, or “he could have done something”, and I am by no means advocating what he did. His actions reverberate through our whole community nationwide, but as long as baby daddy is struggling, mama is getting her check or making him suffer, and baby dont know this difference, you will have instances like this. The child support’s silent message is “we dont care how you get the money just get it”. So a lot of the crime (i.e. drug dealing, armed robbery, etc)thats going on is probably attributed to desperate,struggling fathers trying to avoid jail due to non-payment of child support; by doing something that may get them locked up anyway. Who ultimately benefits by the child support system. I’ll tell you who. It’s the very people that are sitting at their desk in the child support office shaking their heads at this very event. The very people we should be blaming.

    Only one person to blame and that’s the father. Child support system is designed to enforce what so many men try to avoid if this young black man was doing what he needed to do he wouldn’t have a back pay of 4000 and I don’t need to say they go by your income. Lord know he probably not once attempted to make a payment. To me he is just a disgusting coward he couldn’t take his own miserable life so he took the life of and innocent baby just think of what that child went through in his last moments my heart goes out to the baby and his family.

    You know what amazes me? A woman can kill a baby in the womb and it is her right to do so (Pro Choice), and she can make this decision because she merely isn’t ready to have a child for numerous reasons (too young, unfulfilled career goals, don’t want children, financial insecurity). However we get violently upset when a child is killed outside the womb. I don’t condone what this man has done at all, but I fail to see the social or judicial balance in abortion being legalized and we don’t get equally passionate about the death of an unborn child especially in the African American community. So the next time you think to call this man a Punk A** what should we call women who kill their innocent children in the womb?

  • http://www.blackplanet.com/Finding4Ever/ Finding4Ever

    @Nydio There are so many women who have had abortions and men who have encouraged women to get them, that you will probably be criticized for your statement. If the classification of an act as legal or illegal is our only moral standard, we are definitely in trouble.

    Women need to stop having children by these deadbeats. There was an argument about homosexuality and the continuing of society in another article. I am heterosexual and I think having a child is an enormous responsibility that requires a loving support system. Some of us heterosexuals are having children and populating the earth, but we are not good parents and do not make wise decisions. So what good is that doing for society? NONE.

    I am going to need men to stop having unprotected sex when they are not ready to be a father. I am also going to need women to stop having unprotected sex if they do not have what is required to raise the child. YOU CAN NOT HAVE YOUR CAKE AND EAT IT TOO!!! NEWSFLASH: Having unprotected sex puts you at risk for pregrancy and STD’s. It’s not luck. IT’S SCIENCE. Another scientific fact, in my book: HAVING A BABY MAKES YOU A BABY’S MOTHER, BUT IT DOES NOT MAKE YOU A WIFE-ONLY MARRIAGE DOES. Stop thinking a baby can keep a man or make him feel differently about you. Chances are, his indifference will turn to hatred. In his immaturity, he will FEEL that you ruined his life. Grow up and make better choices. Delay instant gratification and patiently wait for real love. And no wonder men go for the raw sex-there are women who use abortions like birth control.

    Also tired of people thinking a fresh white tee and some Jordans makes them a good parent. Stop having children if you are not ready. This is not for all single mothers and single fathers. This is for people who are not ready to be parents. The people who refuse to accept reality and attack others for speaking the truth, instead of growing spiritually. This is for those who have children and do not foster their spiritual growth because they haven’t done so for themselves. This is for those who do not accept their mistakes and do not make strides to reach higher and learn from them- instead live in denial and employ defense mechanisms.

This so sad.r.i.p little angel and my prayers go out to the family.This is what I mean when I say people aren’t ready to be parents because they don’t know what it takes to be a parent.These parents are getting younger and younger and are clueless about raising children and they’re children themselves.Also the absent of their own fathers in their own lives which makes it even worse and vice verse with the young ladies as well but to kill his own flash in blood behide the ole mighty dollar is just plain evil,may God have mercy on his soul since he had none for his own son. :(

    There’s nothing wrong with killing a child over child support. These judges out there refuse to understand that when you revoke a father’s driver’s license, you basically making it way harder to find or even keep a damn job.

    1) some fathers are truck drivers and therefore need their licenses to make a living

    2) some dads work at places where public transportations do not reach

    3) grave yard shift workers can’t always be relying on getting a friend to drop them off at work

    I could go on and on. pretty soon you will hear from me on local miami chanels 4,6,7,9 and 10 because I’m killing all 3 of my so called daughters. I will not be miserable over some damn kids.
    I have no problem paying but to take my license away is an automatic death sentence for rochelle, keily and kathlyn

    Sad but cmon yall this aint gonna be the first or last such story. When a lady sick the government after a loser what left do that loser got to lose? I think if women stop sleeping with losers it might brothers HAVE to step their game up. In nature you dont see the first female sleeping with the first fool that come around. They got to but in work and show they can provide. I know its wrong for a dude to sleep with the first lady that come around but real talk its just too easy. I mean if I had to carry a seed for 9 painful months that planter betta be REAL.
