I can''''t believe that is all the time this man gets. He should be in prison for life. Along with the case workers who ignored this poor poor child. Why didn''''t anyone follow up when she quit attending school? What is up with our judicial system? It''''s gone to H*E*L*L

I don''t think the problem here is the judicial system as much as it is the jurors. Nowadays if members of the jury themselves didn''t see you commit a murder then they''ll doubt you did it regardless of the circumstancial evidence.
This thing about "beyond reasonable doubt" has gotten out of hand and now we have people doubting everything unless they see it for themselves.
Well, heck, what do you expect in a country that has allowed someone like Bush to lie through his teeth about Iraq and get away with the killings of hundreds of thousands of people as if nothing happened?
All you have to do is make up a reason and you''ll get away with murder.

I hope the social workers who allowed the abuse to go on for years will also be convicted.

"Neighbors noticed unexplained injuries and noted she appeared underfed and small for her age. Child welfare workers had been alerted twice but said they found no conclusive evidence of abuse."

I am so tired of professional educated adults using this excuse. Sick to death of it!

Schwartz wants to blame everybody but his client on this poor child''s death. Even the child herself. That is disgusting. The article doesn''t say if Nixmary''s mother was also subjected to abuse from Rodriguez or if he was abusive to the other children. I hate to say it but some people single out one child from a group and are abusive with him/her. There was a case not far from me whereas the mother and father doted on the son and let the two daughters starve. One (the baby) ended up dying.

I can''t believe that if this child was so troublesome why didn''t they take her to a doctor. Perhaps the child could have been given medication if she had such a behavior problem as they claimed, anything would have been better than beating the child to death.
