Showing Original Post only (View all)grandmother sparks outrage by photographing grandchild in roasting pan [View all]
http://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-2723447/Woman-sparks-outrage-posting-funny-photos-baby-granddaughter-roasting-pan-duct-tape-face.htmlOhio woman thought she was being funny when she photographed her baby granddaughter with duct tape on her face and lying in a roasting pan - but Facebook users who saw the images disagreed.
The grandmother, Jackie Sheaks, of Columbus, Ohio, set off a firestorm online that drew the attention of the local sheriffs office when she shared the prank photos of her granddaughter.
In one of the images, the child's pacifier had been secured to her cheeks with two pieces of duct tape. In another, the infant is resting inside a large turkey roasting pan next to some potatoes.

Ah, just because you can, and just because you can document it, doesn't mean you should . . .

Well the duct taped pacifier kind of makes the baby look like Hannibal Lecter.

The picture of the kid, in jammies, in the roasting pan with the potatoes is darkly humorous--

the duct tape is not going to come off that baby's skin without causing pain

The baby was cooked in a microwave. Not an oven. It was the friend of my wife's aunt's neighbor..

people should call the authorities when they see pics like this. Good that the baby is ok.
