Abuse charges were filed Wednesday against a woman accused of fraudulently adopting and mistreating 11 New York children in order to bilk a child welfare agency out of $2 million.
Port St. Lucie police say she held the children like prisoners in her home, often handcuffing them together and not allowing them to use a bathroom. The children, who now range in age from 15 to 27, told police they were never allowed to attend school, see a doctor or a dentist and were barely fed.
All the victims had scars on their wrists from being handcuffed, police said.
Nine were in Florida state care. Some of the adults suffered serious handicaps. One is blind and mumbles. Another can barely walk or stand. None appeared to have more than a fourth-grade education, police said.

Ok, if there ever was a case to bring back public executions… this is it.
I am confused the top states they were New York children then Florida gets involved?
I thought the state made unannounced visits to the homes?
Throw away the key indeed…
During the darkest times of the Dark Ages, some were sentenced to death by evisceration in public while tied spread eagle on a torture table. It was supposed to be an extremely slow and painful death. Hours at least and sometimes days of pain as your abdomen was cut open, your guts were slowly exposed and stretched out side your body and then cut into pieces. That would be too good for this “Woman”.
Strappado or Squassation would do…

What about the government oversight agencies - no problem with them? Ran this program about like all the others the government tries to do - wait til we get Hillarycare - then #4 will just be routine surgery.
Faster - ever read Clancy’s “Without Remorse”? Kelly got info out of a druggie in a quite nasty way using a hypobaric chamber. Pressure up fast. Pressure down fast. Pressure up fast. Pressure down fast. Repeat. Repeat. Repeat.
This woman should be prosecuted as if she planned their murder. She stole their lives, and they were dying a slow death. It never ceases to amaze me how base and evil humans can be ……. for money.
There is absolutly nothing you could think of as fitting way for this women to die. On the other as a believer I have no doubt that she will get her just reward.

Yeah, great book!
11 kids gets you $2 million?
Disgusting. She’ll probably get off a lot of the charges because of statutes of limitations, especially with the liberal courts in New York. /Sorry, my legal mind at work here. My maternal mind is hiding.
Satan is preparing her “special place” in her personal corner in Hell.
Not only has she taken their childhood and put them through a psychological and physical hell, but these children may never catch up to their peers scholastically. She has quite possibly condemned them to a lifetime of welfare dependence at worst, low-level mediocrity at best.

Exactly. I couldn’t have said it better!
These were special needs children who had already been dealt a bad hand. Breaks my heart.
I can’t imagine anything like this happening 100 years ago, but 100 years ago people like this would just disappear in the middle of the night: The local townspeople would take care of things on their own and life would continue on normally. The offending person would be disposed of and that’d be the end of it.
Now that the authorities know about these cases, do we dare believe that these children/adults will be given extra education to get them through? I would be willing to donate. There is much we can still do for these individuals.
This woman’s thought process is reprehensible. She deserves a public hanging.
