tells how Charlie Hunt was repeatedly beaten by his mother’s boyfriend, Darren Newton, while his mother was at work. Darren would torture Charlie for fun while videotaping them on his phone. It was later discovered he would go back and replay them for his own personal enjoyment. Some of are called “ Squeezing toe in cot”, “two minutes of pain", "shivering no water", and ,the one doctors believe led to his death, “Happy Slap” which involved Charlie getting hit thirteen times on the head which lead extensive bleeding to his brain and some of his brain died. When the court saw those clips they were shocked and disgusted by what he had done. As Justice Stephen Irwin said, “It was spiteful and cruel behavior. It was also inexplicable to any normal way of thinking.” Many would strongly agree with that statement. He also showed no remorse for the toddler’s death and no explanation to why he did it. His violent actions have damaged the family of Charlie Hunt permanently.
To me, this shows that society is going downhill. Many claim that terrorists are the biggest threat but the truth of the matter there are a ton of people who practice terrorism who we don’t consider massive threats. When a man can tortures a toddler and make videos of it for pleasure I think there is more than just one person who like to see him severely punished, maybe even killed. I don’t understand what makes a person want to hear a child scream and cry for help. Maybe he was abused as a child or his parents were divorced but it doesn’t matter? If that was his problem than he should have gotten help but instead he killed an innocent infant and showed no remorse for what he had done. I don’t like what people like al Qaeda are doing but I can understand it but even criminals murderers and thief’s have never purposely try to target children and so a man who can do that is worse than any criminal no matter what they did. I only have two questions. Did this man feel pleasure when he heard the child scream? Did he even care if he killed the toddler? All in all, society needs to change its course before the lines between right and wrong get so blurred we can’t tell which is which.
