GALVESTON, Texas - Jurors who rejected a young father's claim that he was insane when he burned his infant daughter in a microwave must now decide his punishment.
Prosecutors are asking that Joshua Mauldin be sentenced to life in prison for stuffing his daughter Ana in a microwave and turning id t on for 10 to 20 seconds. His defense attorney asked for probation so his client could continue receiving psychiatric treatment.
Jurors deliberated Mauldin's punishment for 2 1/2 hours Tuesday without a decision. They were set to resume working on Wednesday.
Earlier Tuesday, the jury convicted Mauldin, 20, of felony injury to a child, dismissing his claim he was having a psychotic episode when he put his then-2-month-old daughter in a Galveston hotel microwave in May 2007. More
The little girl suffered second and third degree burns to an ear, cheek, hand, and a shoulder and she also needed two skin-grafts. Part of one ear had to be amputated. It is also reported that this creep punched the little girl and put her in the safe which was in the room and then in the refrigerator before placing her in the microwave.
Forget life for this punk, hang is sorry ass. Better yet, give him the same treatment that his daughter was given by him till he's dead.
Meanwhile, in Alaska, four people were stabbed to death by 18 year old Jason Abbott who used a 5 inch knife on his victims. Alaskan police had to use a stun gun to subdue Jason. Three of the bodies were found in a home not far from the police station.
Police received a call from a man outside the house who told the dispatcher that there was a "guy outside stabbing people," Scmitt said. The dispatcher said she could hear people screaming in the background. Source
So goes life in the U.S.A. and how is your day?
