Auntie Charo's Soapbox

I loved the way Tammy Anderson of the PDN described the puddle that the dead boy was found at. 'Nethon's body was found lying face up in a puddle of rain', gads, was she trying to be 'lyrical'? Lady, the boy was lying in a mud puddle, those puddles of rain on that awful area on or by Hamburger road and the lovely Hemlani Ghetto aren't lyrical in any way...simply put, they're mud puddles that are there by neglect. The ones on the road are by neglect of the government and the ones at the apartment are the neglect of the apartment's owner, although I doubt that the boy drowned in that rain puddle you describe, especially since he was face up.
Today's article said much in what it didn't say, I don't recall that the 33-yr-old mother with 5 children had a husband. Where was the husband/father of these children during the move? Why didn't the reporter question him about looking for the child? How come it was the woman who was looking for the child? How old were the other children, how come they weren't with the child. If there were five children, someone had to be older than the 4 year old...
I really feel sorry that this child had to die at such a young age and pray that his surving sibling have a better chance at life than he did. Rest in Peace, little boy, our prayers are with you!
