Sure, blame it on the poor dog...
Quote :
Prosecutors told jurors on Monday that a Texas woman accused of cutting off her infant son's genitals two years ago was a drug abuser who showed no remorse or concern for her child as he was on the verge of death.
Katherine Nadal's defense attorneys, however, said an expert will back up the 28-year-old woman's claim it could have been the family dog, a 6-to-7 pound dachshund, that mutilated her son in their suburban Houston apartment in March 2007.
Nadal is on trial on a charge of injury to a child, a first-degree felony. She faces up to life in prison if convicted of attacking her then-5-week-old son, Holden Gothia. Her trial is expected to last at least a week.
During opening statements Monday, prosecutor Denise Oncken told the jury that the night before Holden was attacked, Nadal indicated she was going shopping with a friend but actually "went to a dope house" with her son and got high.
A dope house. Yeah, that's a great environment for a 5-week-old. Why, they even have free baby-sitting services. After all, it's a house, isn't it? Kids live in houses; this is no different!
Quote :
Camden Gothia, Holden's father, testified that when Nadal came back, she was "not sober." Nadal, who authorities say has a history of drug abuse and has prior drug arrests, later tested positive for cocaine, methadone and another drug.
"Not sober" apparently means "tripping out of her fucking mind, and dangerous enough to slice up her son like he was a loaf of bread", in this case.
Quote :
Nadal was still high the day Holden was mutilated, when she claimed the family dog, Shorty, attacked the infant in her bedroom as they slept, Oncken said.
And it just gets worse and worse from there on out, folks.
Quote :
Doctors who examined Holden will testify the genitals were cut in a perfect square by a sharp instrument, Oncken told jurors. An animal control officer who examined the dog found no blood in its mouth, on its fur or on its paws, she said.
Obviously the dog's mouth is configured such that it can bite off a child's genitals in a perfect square! The defense rests!
Quote :
Holden, who lost half the blood in his nine pound body, survived the attack, but the severed body parts were never found.
:shocked:
Quote :
Allen Isbell, Nadal's attorney, told jurors investigators searched the apartment and never found any instrument or sharp object, and Houston police examined the sink and the garbage disposal and found no DNA or blood evidence.
"There is another reasonable explanation for the injuries to this child," Isbell said. "An expert on dog behavior ... will testify that in her opinion it is possible a dog could have made those injuries."
Holden, now 2 years old, lives with Camden Gothia's sister and her husband, who were given permanent custody after Nadal and Gothia relinquished their parental rights. His father sees him regularly.

I remember when this happened. Sick, sick woman. Poor kid is going to have to live with this for the rest of his life. What chance does he have at normalcy? Hopefully his aunt can give him the loving and safe environment his mother couldn't.

I don't think Phoenix Wright himself could get this lady an acquittal.
(which is just the way it should be.)

Yes, the dog, you see, is actually a doggy genius. The dog obtained an instrument to mutilate the child, did so, ate all the evidence, washed itself thoroughly, and is now laughing at its owner being put on trial.

Am I the only one thinking it seems likely that she fed the...parts...to the dog to support her bullshit alibi? Cripes, it's like an urban legend.
...I'm trying to think of what kind of restorative surgery they can give the kid and all I can think of is Herr Starr at the end of Preacher. My brain is so not cool sometimes.

Maybe they could do the same surgery that they use for a trans-man's bottom surgery? Does anyone know more about artificial penis creation?
I know that there was at least one FTM dude who had an air-pump penis so he could get it up..

No, no good. There are various techniques, but all sex reassignment surgeries utilize the tissue that's already there. You can basically (VERY basically, ask one of our fine TGs for a more accurate description) invert whatever equipment you have, or you can build up the clit, but you can't really build something out of nothing. The saying in the business also goes "Easier to dig a hole than raise a pole"...oh God, I hope they don't try to make him a girl like that one kid with the botched circumcision. That ended HORRIBLY.

Jesus. Everytime I contemplate dabbling in criminal law, I think, "Nahhh, commercial litigation - two business duking it out over contracts - is so much better for sanity!"

She brought the baby into the world, it was male. It was her goddess-given duty to either help it improve itself above shit (to slime) or kill it. The patriarchy has hoodwinked us womyn to believe that killing a male is wrong, but I say she's a patriarchy-fucking heroine.
