Police said the woman tried to stuff something down the child's throat to make her stop crying before using the saw

Posting anything from the Daily Maul is a joke.

DM is a joke when it comes to some ( a lot) of things)
but factual reports like these from OS tend to be true,
even though they tend to be over hyped.

It also has AP as the source so they didn't write it.

that paper really does print some ridiculous stories

I wonder if they make them up

Yes, or embellish them.

It's like aircraft crashes, I can generally put 2 - 4 sentences in the article before I even read it, most of which are BS.

So does nobody believe the story at all?
Have we really become so de-sensitised that our first reaction is to denounce the reporting rather than the death of a seven month baby?

They never investigate any story, everything they publish has been stolen from other news media.

Listing AP and Reuters as the source does not mean it is stolen.

That is what they do, (AP and Reuters) syndicate stories.

Agree they don't investigate.

There is a much nicer story in the news today about a baby girl who survived a car crash into water. Hanging upside down strapped in her car seat.

That was a pretty good story.

11 hours or something trapped in the car.

Sorry Grandmoon, I can't comment on your link as I simply can't read it 😞

This is amazing..................

http://www.foxnews.com/us/2015/03/10/utah-officers-say-mysterious-voice-pushed-them-to-rescue-toddler-trapped-inside/

Four police officers rushing to an overturned car in an icy Utah river say they all heard the same thing: a mysterious female voice calling out “Help,” from inside the vehicle.

But the driver of the car was dead and her 18-month-old daughter, while still alive, couldn’t have been the speaker.

It was a mystery that continues to haunt the officers – and may never be explained.

Yes, I read that.

Weird.

Could have been wind or just one of those things.
