ST. PETERSBURG (FOX 13) - The Pinellas County sheriff says a 6-year-old boy beat his baby sister to death while they, along with another sibling, were left alone in a locked van outside a cell phone store while their mother went inside.
Sheriff Bob Gualtieri said the mother, Kathleen Steele, 62, had gone inside the cell phone store on Aug. 8 to have her broken phone repaired and left the three children in the van with the windows rolled up and the van turned off.
The sheriff said the 13-day-old-baby was crying in the van and 6-year-old Frankie slammed the baby on the ground and flipped her around. The baby, also named Kathleen, suffered severe injuries including a fractured skull, cuts, and bruising.
"The best way I can describe it is, he pummeled her," said Sheriff Gualtieri, who also said there was blood on the ceiling of the van.
The boy will not be charged, though the sheriff said the boy admitted to deputies that he caused the injuries and showed deputies how he did it.
"We decided not to charge him. But nonetheless, we have a 6-year-old who killed a 13-day-old," the sheriff said.
Steele did not immediately seek medical attention after the baby was injured, the sheriff said, and instead took the children to another store. A neighbor later called paramedics to Steele's home, where they performed CPR on the baby and transported her to the hospital where she was pronounced dead.
>Steele did not immediately seek medical attention after the baby was injured, the sheriff said, and instead took the children to another store. Are they certain it wasn't the mother? Or are they taking a child's testimony as truth?

happened in Florida
I am watching a 30 minute press conference
'She [62 Y/O kathleen] had no business having kids' according to the officer in the pic
William Ramirez
The kid should be put in a home. Permanently. 6 year olds shouldn't perfom 4th trimester abortions.
Jonathan Green
kid is too young to face criminal charges, but now he at least will be scrutinized by more responsible people. Kid will probably be in therapy until he is 18
Mom was on a reality show when she was pregnant at 55
Eli Ramirez
This.
The mother is certainly at fault because of the litany of negligent acts in this case, but she's not the one who beat an infant to death.
There's no reason the kid shouldn't be brought to charge. He'll never understand the gravity of his actions since everyone will just blame the mother.

These kids are going to be future presidents! Except the one that's dead.
Lucas Davis
still watching the press conference
"kid is mature for his age" "talks like an adult, one could mistake him for a 20-30 year old"
english isnt good but unless he wasnt talking about a 6 year old, then just wow.
James Hall
The boy is smart. He realises that with a sibling his parents resources will be shared amongst them, meaning he gets less attention, less investment in education and less food. So he killed his sibling in a bid to get the best that he can. This boy will do well in life.
Cameron Myers
Just gonna leave this here
Benjamin Hall
"the best way i can describe it, is he pummeled her"
this all happened when the kids were left alone in the car for 38 minutes. after the mother came in, she drove back home and asked the 6 year old is something wrong with her [13 day old]

Dominic Perry
14 days old, shit. That baby had no rights. As long as that baby still has a piece of the umbillical cord attached, it is still the mother's body. What kind of ignorant fucks are you? It's her body and she'll do what she wants with it.

Arabs should be moved down a notch, they have a tendency to blow up over the silliest of things.
Hunter Howard
This, they can't even stop murdering babies that don't worship Allah in the right way.
Charles Lopez
What's worse, the crazy bitch left the paramedics in the living room that were trying to resuscitate her slab of bloody ground beef that used to be her daughter, she walked away to go put her groceries away.
Brayden Sullivan
So is this like a little Damien kid or what?
Michael Green
So guys, if those were your kids, would you kill the 6 year old in return, restart and make new children?
Levi Wright
I live in Florida. I heard also that when she was told about the death she blankly said I guess I have to plan a funeral. She is also single mother who used IVF from her dead husband's frozen sperm.
Mason Harris
I bet this little shit has down syndrome or is autistic.

>62 year old mom yeah, the kid was a fucking tard who didn't know his own strength. the cutoff age is ~35 before you start risking mongoloid babies the mom is clearly responsible for gross negligence, child abuse, and some sort of indirect manslaughter charge.

Unfit genetic conceptions self eliminate themselves from the population. All is well.

>Steele did not immediately seek medical attention after the baby was injured, the sheriff said, and instead took the children to another store. A neighbor later called paramedics to Steele's home, where they performed CPR on the baby and transported her to the hospital where she was pronounced dead. That's highly suspicious. I really don't think the kid did it here.

What the fuck you shouldn't be allowed to have kids past 45 and im being generous here.
Henry Reed
Life sentences should be given for crimes like this regardless of age. Kids like this are beyond fucked up and the notion they will somehow re-adapt into society is nonsense. Just kill them or lock them up before they hurt anyone else.
Adrian Perry

was the father white?

You probably have an autist on autist killing here.

Jaxon Baker
Let me get this straight:
1. Mother leaves three children in car to do errands.
2. The 6 year boy murders his sibling.
3. The mother returns and goes to the next store.
4. Mother is arrested because her daughter was murdered by someone else.
Beam me up, Scotty. Oh and all of you humans are scum. I hope an asteroid destroys us all.
Joshua Taylor
That family sounds all sorts of fucked
Justin Cook
...
Kevin Johnson
oh, and:
5. Cop goes into detail about how the mother got pregnant. News and everyone else thinks the sheriff is perfectly normal and understandable for doing so.
Have I fallen through into some kind of bizarro dimension? Do you guys call the Berenstein Bears the Barrenstain Bears
Grayson Clark
Child psychopath?
Anthony Gomez
I thought abortion was legal?
Camden Myers

I'm shocked
Joshua Martin
The kid probably did the baby a favor seeing as how she would've been raised by the disgusting bitch of a mother.
How autistic are you?

this place is truly a wasteland
Michael Cook
Lol humans aren't fucking birds. That kid is gonna grow up with parents that will only remember him for murdering their daughter
Jason Reyes
What does this have to do with politics?
Carson Collins
At least you missed the degeneracy fest that is first friday
Landon Gonzalez
Why can't you idiots understand that arresting the mother makes no fucking sense. Why don't one of you shitbag permavirgins explain it to me.
Matthew Mitchell
The woman probably told him to kill the kid so she didn't have to worry about raising it. What kind of person stumbles upon their lifeless child, then goes to another store before even reporting it.
Isaiah Howard
Its a fake story dumbasses. No one is fertile at age 62
Ryder Ross
Who the hell has a baby at 62 years old?
Sebastian Sanchez

Blake Jones
>happened in Florida Florida is the tropical Russia of North America.
Christopher Ramirez
45 is way too old. 40 years top, then you shouldn't be allowed to have kids.
Carson Davis
His mother was 55, he is 110% autistic (pronounced "doitsch" I think).
Jordan Lopez
Just kill the bastard and the mother and be done with it Best way to deal with these types of things
Benjamin Moore
>Mom was on a reality show when she was pregnant at 55
If thats true she was pregnant with the kid that killed the baby at that time.
Wonder if she ever thought he would be a murderer so young.
Christian Lee
I'd rather shitpost on a Hillary general than see this sappy shit. Another day in America
James Ward
CHeck out The Independent downtown. It's a nice little bar.
Head to Sarasota as fast as you can and hit the beach. They're the fucking best.
Jordan Sanders
More like ban hands. Now every American needs to get rid of their hands so they don't kill babies.
Xavier Ross
That 6 year old saved the parents a bunch of time and money.
Angel Harris
Interesting how no one can explain to me what she did that merits being thrown in jail.
Alexander Morgan
looks like that place is closed, at least temporarily. been spending some time at clearwater beach, seems pretty nice. is sarasota the classy/nice part of the tampa bay area?
Hudson Gonzalez
Child neglect for one. You aren't supposed to leave your kids unsupervised if they are under a certain age And when shit like this happens then you are responsible for it Honestly though they just need to put the kid down
Bentley Hughes
Except natural law isn't contiguous with man's laws and if he keeps on with the jungle bullshit he'll end up dead or in jail.
Asher Sanders
Sarasota is it's own thing, separate from TB. Muhc, much nicer but obviously still has some probelm areas. THe beaches can't be beat.
Austin Brown
I honestly wish I did this. Having siblings will objectively make your life worse if your parents aren't rich.
Aiden Ortiz
>the mother, Kathleen Steele, 62 >13 day old daughter
What the actual fuck
Bentley Reyes
$10 says she's a coalburner and the kids are niglets.
Jose Rivera
I can remember being five or six and not trying to murder the people around me. How the fuck is she supposed to expect something like that to happen. How can they have audacity to arrest her for murder after he own daughter was murdered by her own son.
Matthew Ward
She left the kids in a hot van with the windows rolled up. That alone is a charge.
Justin Hughes
>Steele did not immediately seek medical attention after the baby was injured, the sheriff said, and instead took the children to another store Just another layer of crazy to the story A 6 year old psychopath son of female psychopath
Josiah Barnes
She lost her daughter. How the fuck more does she need to be punished? Yes she made a mistake. Maybe she's stupid. But throwing her in prison while she's still reeling from the trauma of a murdered daughter?
I just don't get the people around me. It must be me. I must be crazy. Because it can't be that 96 percent of the population are hairless apes with no. I want it to be me because otherwise I am trapped in a madhouse with lunatics.
