In reply to the discussion: Father's story just got worse and dumber in missing 3 yr old Sherin Mathews [View all]Moral Compass
(2,400 posts)The story has never made any sense. First question is why is a little girl supposed to be drinking milk at 3 AM? The second question is why would you punish a child for not drinking milk? Is this the equivalent of my parents not letting me leave the table until I had finished my liver? Not a normal way of dealing with a developmentally delayed three year old. Or any three-year-old.
What is going to turn out to have happened is that this father probably backhanded or punched her or something like that and managed to kill her when he did it. So, he came up with the American version of the dingo ate my baby.
The problem is is that the story makes absolutely no sense at all. Nothing fits. Why would you force a non-verbal child out to stand in the dark for 15 minutes? Then when she disappeared there is no reason that would be understandable to any parent for not waking up the entire household and going out and scouring the area for that child.
Unless he knew that she wasnt going to be found. He has probably buried her somewhere and she will be discovered eventually.
I live in the area and it was reported that child protective services has been out of this house before. That is a very very bad sign indeed.
