Read about this in the local paper over the weekend. This is what the elected officials of NE do. What a bunch of idiots. Pay attention during you local elections too, not just the presidential.

But If you charge him with abuse then he never would of dropped the kids off. I agree what the dad did is wrong, but without this law, those kids may never get out their situation. Which then compounds the problem until their abuse leads to something more violent then neglect. This wasn't what the law was intended to do, but it does highlight a issue that many people never think about, and may actually help lessen physical abuse of kids.
