ANOTHER MURDERED BABY: You guessed it, the mother’s lowlife boyfriend.
A 14-month-old girl beaten allegedly because she refused to eat and showed disrespect to her mother’s boyfriend died Friday from her injuries.
Lilianna Goodmann died about 3:30 p.m. at Peyton Manning Children’s Hospital at St. Vincent, two days after she was beaten for more than an hour at a Far-Northside apartment, Indianapolis Metropolitan Police Department spokesman Sgt. Paul Thompson said.
Police say Tayaun Chism, 18, struck Lilianna with a belt for more than an hour Wednesday. The girl’s mother, Rachel Goodmann, 21, was injured when she tried to stop the beating, police said.
Chism was in the Marion County Jail on Friday on initial charges of neglect, aggravated battery and domestic battery. Bond was set at $1 million.
Prosecutors could file murder charges against Chism when he appears in Marion Superior Court on Monday, said Mario Massillamany, spokesman for Prosecutor Carl Brizzi.
“Detectives are pretty sure that the beating with the belt was so severe that it ultimately resulted in Lilianna’s death,” Thompson said.
St. Vincent spokesman Johnnie Smith said members of Lilianna’s family declined to comment Friday.
Goodmann is about 14 weeks pregnant, police said.
At least two other adults and a juvenile also were present at the time of the beating, Thompson said. Their involvement is under investigation.
Once again, an ignorant trash mother allowing an ignorant lowlife animal boyfriend to beat her child to death.

AN ARTICLE JACKIE FOUND:
Children’s Services cuts panned by critics as ‘playing with fire’
BY Meredith Kolodner
DAILY NEWS STAFF WRITER
Tuesday, March 24th 2009, 12:19 AM
Abused children’s advocates blasted city officials Monday for slashing funding for child protective services amid the city budget crunch.
City Council members and parents accused Administration for Children’s Services officials of risking more child death horrors by cutting 17% of the workers who monitor the most vulnerable kids.
“You’re playing with fire here,” said Council General Welfare Committee Chairman Bill de Blasio (D-Brooklyn). “How can you possibly get the work done?”
Commissioner John Mattingly defended the cuts and said that the agency would be able to adequately protect the city’s children.
“I believe that we have, and I believe that we will,” he told a packed chamber.
The agency had to make deep cuts to close a $62 million budget gap and also make an additional 7% across-the-board cut ordered by Mayor Bloomberg.
More than 550 employees will be laid off and an additional 360 vacancies left unfilled in child protective services. That’s a cut of about 920 staff in an agency that employs about 7,000 people.
Parents, advocates and social workers waved signs that read “Lies” throughout Mattingly’s testimony, especially when he claimed that caseloads would remain at about 12 families per caseworker.
The advocates say the agency will go back to its understaffed days before the horrifying murder of 7-year-old Nixzmary Brown at the hands of her stepfather in 2006.
“They looked at the system and said this is what’s necessary to prevent that from happening again,” said Jennifer Marino Rojas of the Children’s Defense Fund. “Now they’re cutting back.”

ANOTHER CHILD KILLED BY HIS POS MOTHER’S BOYFRIEND!
Questions, prayers over Camden boy’s death
Jamarr Cruz lived in fear and pain.
The 9-year-old was attacked in his city home at least 20 times this year by his mother’s boyfriend, Vincent Williams — a brutal existence that ended with a deadly assault this week, officials said Wednesday.
And all the while, Williams, 26 — who authorities say has confessed to Jamarr’s slaying and to hiding signs of his abuse — was on probation for beating the boy with a belt in December 2007.
The 2007 assault led to intervention by the state Division of Youth and Family Services, which was involved with Jamarr’s family until November 2008.
At a candlelight vigil for Jamarr on Wednesday evening, family members expressed shock at the violence inflicted upon the Molina School fourth-grader. They also demanded information from DYFS about its efforts on behalf of Jamarr, who was left in his home after the 2007 assault.
“What happened? What went wrong?” asked a tearful Robert McGee Sr. of North Camden, Jamarr’s grandfather. “And what’s the plan to fix things?”
“Until we get some answers, we’re not satisfied,” said Gladys Cruz of East Camden, who said Jamarr’s mother, Omayra Cruz, is her niece.
DYFS officials will conduct an internal investigation of the case, said Kate Bernyk, an agency spokeswoman. She also said a 1-year-old boy was removed from Omayra Cruz’s home and placed in foster care after Jamarr’s death.
Williams took careful steps to conceal the child abuse from outsiders, authorities said.
The ex-convict told investigators he punched and kicked Jamarr in areas where bruises would be less visible, such as the chest and stomach. according to a court record.
He acknowledged keeping the boy “from anyone who could possibly help him, including making up excuses so the victim could not see his grandparents.” And, the court record says, “On occasions, he would send the victim’s mother away from the home so that he could hit the victim,” the court record says.
Omayra Cruz was not home when Williams punched and kicked Jamarr in the boy’s bedroom at the Ablett Village public-housing complex about 7 a.m. Monday, authorities said. Williams — described as 5-feet-10 and 170 pounds by Department of Corrections records — was angry that the child had gone to the bathroom on himself, officials said.

The boy was denied medical care by his family on Monday, authorities said. Jamarr was taken to a city hospital about 7:10 a.m. Tuesday, after his mother was unable to wake him, and he died at 7:35 a.m.

Williams, who was arrested Tuesday after a high-speed chase, cried softly during his initial appearance in Superior Court.
“(Williams) said, “I murdered him,’ and that’s exactly what happened,” said Camden County Assistant Prosecutor Mary Alison Albright as she summarized the suspect’s statement to police.
Williams told investigators that Jamarr was “very afraid” of him, according to the statement. He also said he knew he had hurt the youth “pretty bad.”
Williams could face life in prison without parole for the killing, which Albright described as “hideous.” Superior Court Judge Thomas Brown set his bail at $1 million.
Williams was imprisoned for several months in 2004 after two drug convictions.
According to court records, he was sentenced to three years probation after pleading guilty to neglect and abuse charges in connection with the 2007 incident. He also was ordered to attend anger-management and counseling classes.
DYFS employees worked with the family through monthly checkups until November 2008, said Bernyk. During a 10-month period, the family went through counseling and Williams and Omayra Cruz attended parenting classes, she said.
DYFS determined an abuse complaint in September 2008 was unfounded, Bernyk said.
Monica McGee, Jamarr’s grandmother, believes the boy should have been taken from his troubled home after the 2007 incident.
“None of this would have happened,” she said.
In cases of possible child abuse, the priority is to keep the child in the home unless it’s found to be unsafe, said Mary Coogan, assistant director of The Association for Children of New Jersey.
“The standard is whether the child can be safe,” Coogan said. “DYFS is obligated to assess whether or not services put in the home can allow the child to remain there safely.”
In 2007, 23 children died in New Jersey from neglect or abuse, according to a report by the state’s Office of the Child Advocate. Seventeen of the deaths were ruled homicides.
The grandmother also said she wasn’t aware of the recent abuse and couldn’t understand why no one reported it.
“I am just grieving really hard right now,” she said. “Why didn’t anybody come forward and let anybody know any information?”
The prosecutor’s office provided no comment as to whether Omayra Cruz is being investigated.
Jamarr’s mother attended Wednesday’s vigil briefly. She silently held a candle next to Jamarr’s father, Ellhajj Malik Monroe, then stepped into the crowd, embraced a family member and left.
That came after Robert McGee Sr. urged some 60 listeners to avoid making judgments in Jamarr’s case.
“As much as you want to point fingers, I’m not going to,” he said. “Now is the time to heal.”

Whether a person is a priest, religious authority figure, parent, aunt, family member, teacher or stranger, ALL should be held criminally accountable for molesting a child. Sadly, this article below shows evidence how children are last and pedophile rights come first.
The head of the Catholic Church in Ireland is to meet the Pope to discuss a report into child abuse by religious orders.
Thousands of children were abused in Catholic-run institutions, according to the report published last month.
Cardinal Sean Brady, who spoke of his shame at the findings, will be accompanied by Archbishop of Dublin Diarmuid Martin at the Rome meeting.
Cardinal Brady is to talk about the impact of the report on the church.
The five-volume study by the Child Abuse Commission, concluded that monks and nuns encouraged ritual beatings and consistently shielded their orders’ paedophiles from arrest amid a “culture of self-serving secrecy”.
It found that sexual abuse was “endemic” in boys’ institutions, and church leaders knew what was going on.
Schools were run “in a severe, regimented manner that imposed unreasonable and oppressive discipline on children and even on staff”.
The report, nine years in the making and covering a period of six decades, found government inspectors failed to stop beatings, rapes and humiliation.
The victims were among 35,000 children who were placed in a network of reformatories, industrial schools and workhouses until the early 1990s.
The findings will not be used for criminal prosecutions.
You did a great job
thankful for your blog, for showing the world that this is really the facts about abuse. kudos!
