FITTING PENALTY

I sincerely hope that during their stay in jail for whatever length of time, Martin and Karen Herrera are given limited amounts of food. Maybe then they will realize how their infant son felt when he was denied sufficient food from his birth in January.

Even such a small baby must realize he is hungry - and let people know this feeling.

I also pray that the Herreras never regain custody of this baby.
