Meet your new sister, she's out in the dumpster...

Oh, the joys of being 11 and waiting nine months to meet your new baby sister- the thought is just darling. Until you realise that in order to meet your beloved, long awaited sibling is to go out back into the dumpster which your mom decided to toss her in hours after her birth.

Shawn Sepulveda, 38, was arrested on suspicion of attempted murder after an 11-year-old girl found the baby in a trash bin behind 30041 Tessier St. at about 9 a.m. Saturday, according to Jim Amormino of the Orange County Sheriff's Department.

Neighbors said the girl who made the discovery is the newborn's sister.

The baby was taken to Mission Hospital and was reported in good condition, he said.

Amormino said a trail of blood led to Sepulveda.

The baby was believed to have been born just hours earlier and placed in the trash only about 15 minutes before the girl got her out, Amormino said.

Perhaps the story is even more angering to me because a law created in 2001 provides for a "safe surrender" of unwanted babies which provides safe places to leave the babies such as hospitals, police stations and fire department. But, rather than make the slightest attempt to do right by the child she brought into the world, Sepulveda took a inhumane and lazy way out, tossing the baby into a dumpster as if it was nothing more than a piece of rotting trash.

Seriously, it's things like this which make me wish that somehow we could find away to limit the breeding capabilities of people like this.

Florida Sex Offender Registry

Reading the news today, I was taken back to see that the Florida Sex Offender registry was being criticized. Having had the chance to look at it previously, I had always found it rather informative, and well organized. The issue that many are having with it now wouldn't be noticed by the occasional browser on the site. Which makes it even worse. A review of the FSR has found some rather unsettling statistics: The News-Press analyzed the Florida Department of Law Enforcement database of 36,306 sex offenders and found: • 9,205 of them are incarcerated • 7,037 have run away or can't be found • 824 have been deported; and • 516 are dead. Of the 15,573 sex offenders listed as released and not on parole or probation, only 11,355 of those actually live in Florida. Sex offender registries can only be usefully, and only fully do what they where designed to do when they are updated, maintained and monitored continuously. When you are relying on the SO registries to monitors how safe your...

WTW Someone Please Help Us

There's so much to work with, I'm going to just hit as much as I can. Ashely Simpson decided to pick a fight at McDonald's. Betting millions that if the employee would just go and get the manager- the manager would just love her. Simpson's climbing on the counter and irate behavior where in typical White Trash Style. Great coverage at Stereogum. Tom Cruise has decidedly canned his sister for her inability to help him keep his mouth shut. Evidently he needs a real professional as his PR person- in order to keep him in line. It's just not right firing family because you're and idiot. Kate Hudson is suing someone because of photos of her in which she looks like a starving actress. She claims the images suggest she has a eating disorder- no Kate, it's not the images, it's the you. One should not sue because they have starved themselves to the point of it being noticeable in photos. Please stop by these other great sites to read more WHITE TRASH WEDNESDAY B...

$167.90

He received $167.90 to serve on the jury. It couldn't have been an easy case to listen to. Hearing of how a 13 year old was raped by a 38 year old man who had befriended the family, it'd be enough to make most people turn in repulsion. But the juror did what he was suppose to, and long with the 11 other people who sat by his side- he found the defendant guilty. Believing that the child, who had come from a broken home- a mother battling drugs and a father who wasn't there- deserved justice, the 12 people performed their moral, ethical and judicial duty and sentenced Gregory Bryant to 30 years in prison. One would think that Bruse Funkhouser had earned that $167.90. Perhaps it would cover a small portion of the income that he lost while serving his duty to the courts. Perhaps it would just give him a little extra change in his pocket. So, you might wonder what would cause Funkhouser to return the check to the court house... Members of a Pawnee County jury are upset a judge g...
