A Tragic Story of a 12-Year-Old Boy
According to The Sun: A 12-year-old boy spent his horrific final moments locked in a basement, vomiting, screaming, and hearing nothing while his two mothers watched him through a camera, the court was told.
Becky Humber and Brandi Cooney were in the process of adopting the child, who was identified only as LL. They did not plead guilty to the charges...
This tragedy highlights serious issues related to adoption and child care.

Efforts to ensure a safe environment for the most vulnerable populations must be a priority for the state and society as a whole.
