Michael James and Tina Alberson

Pop quiz time. If your child steals from his sibling, what do you do?
a) Deprive him of television.
b) Deprive him of video games.
c) Deprive him of toys.
d) Deprive him of the necessities of life.
Unhappily for 10-year-old Jonathan James, his f*cktard father Michael Ray James and his hellbeast stepmother Tina Maria Alberson chose option (d).
After accusing this loving, good-natured boy of taking guitar strings from a sibling, this pair of murderous morons decided to punish him by making him stand at the window of a room that lacked air conditioning. What’s bad about that? They made him stand there for five days. In the full sunshine. With degrees reaching 106°F. Without water. For five days. No water.
Jonathan’s twin brother Joseph knew he was getting sick. He knew Jonathan needed water, and he was only 10. How could Michael James and Tina Alberson not know? They knew. Living in Dallas, Texas they knew about heat, yet they deprived this young boy of water to the point of death and beyond.
Damn them to hell.
Jonathan dreaded his court-ordered visit with his father and stepmother. He had called his grandma Sue Shotwell in late June to tell her he was afraid. He wanted to live with her instead. He told her, “I know I’m going to be in trouble while I’m there because I always am.”
But court-ordered visits are court-ordered visits, and there was nothing to be done but allow the boys to spend the summer with that monstrous pair in their Red Bird home.
There had previously been complaints and investigations against both Michael Ray James and Tina Maria Alberson but nothing that resulted in charges or the removal of the children from their home.
Grandma Sue Shotwell never heard from Jonathan again. The next time she saw him he was unconscious and dying in hospital.
“I told him I loved him,” she said. “He was precious, and I told him where he was going.”
It was later that she learned what had happened to him. The world would learn what had happened.
Jonathan’s fraternal twin Joseph, the poor kid, witnessed the torture and death of his brother.
“They put an X on the floor and an X on the window and the sun was coming straight through it and there was no air conditioning there,” explained Joseph.
Joseph had wanted to help, he had wanted to offer water, but he was afraid.
“But I didn’t do nothing because I would get in trouble. I wanted to do something, I just did, but I couldn’t.”
And Joseph was right to fear the wrath of those monsters.
“The day that he died, they made him eat a PBJ, a peanut butter and jelly sandwich and the peanut butter got stuck in his throat and they still wouldn’t let him have water,” continued Joseph.
Finally Jonathan collapsed and hit his head on the floor.
“When we picked him up and leaned him over the kitchen chair he was shaking and moaning,” said Joseph. “I couldn’t do nothing about it because if I said something I would end up getting in trouble too.”

So what did the brilliant pair of f*cktards do? Michael Ray James and Tina Maria Alberson decided to put him in an ice cold bath. Much too little much too late.
Next they lied and told the medics and the doctors that he’d been feeling ill for a number of days and they had been cooling him off in the tub. The boy was dying and they refused to tell the doctors what had really happened!
Shortly after his arrival to hospital and the goodbye kiss from Grandma Sue, young Jonathan James was dead.
Gone was the fun-loving cub scout, the student of the month, the loving brother, son and grandson. Gone forever for no good reason.
Michael Ray James and Tina Maria Alberson were charged with injury to a child causing serious bodily injury. Apparently it’s an easier charge to prove than murder and carries the same penalty — 99 years in prison. But you know and I know they are guilty of murdering a fine young boy.
I pray that Joseph James has a good future and feels no guilt over what was out totally beyond his control.
And I trust that Michael Ray James and Tina Maria Alberson will rot in hell after a lifelong stint of rotting in jail. Good riddance to the pair of hellbeasts!

Fucking animals. Child death is always horrifying, but the thought of watching one’s own twin brother or sister die slowly and be too paralyzed with fear to help is just nightmare fuel to me. The surviving boy is going to blame himself for the rest of his life, despite that he was just as helpless and blameless as his brother.
Hell for those animals that bore those poor boys.
Where did these two fucktards meet- an ugly dumbshit convention?
And why the hell can’t we have eye for an eye punishment in this country? Why is the system more concerned about the care of the criminals than the care they took of their victims? Why can these two fuckers do this to a beautiful little boy over some fucking guitar strings, but they get three hots and a cot? Fuck them.
Pardon the French, but I can’t stand these people, and I think I’m starting to become cynical.
lol, or at a bullfrog look-a-like contest!
The sperm donor looks like he’s on the damn toilet with a mad case of constipation!
Or at a Merle Haggard concert.
Why are you bringing Merle Haggard into this? These two are pieces of excrement, I don’t think you’d find them at any concert? Do you think these Neanderthals comprehend art to any degree?
I agree. Merle Haggard has better looking fans than these two bastards. In fact, everyone does. Still, fuck these idiots.
Okay, these two are officially the ugliest people I have ever seen.
I second that. Honestly, how far do you let yourself go till your mugshot screams ‘fat fucking scum that was a waste of sperm and eggs?’
LMAO!
It’s like they met through the Lowered Expectations dating service.
LOL you took the words right outta my mouth! My brother made me laugh so hard one day when he was joking around and said “My standards are very low, that way I’m never disappointed.”, lol.
Absolutely. Their first crime was looking like that. There should really be some sort of law on the books whereby, if you look like these two sphincter-warts you should be immediately deemed beyond fucked.
Ugly inside and out…I can’t imagine either one of these walking shit bags getting laid..Barf!!
lol
How long did it take these two ugly fat pigs who never missed a meal to come up with the torture they inflicted on that baby? Did it occur to them right away to kill the kid the hard way or did they consider and discard other horrible options?
My apologies to all fat pigs. I’m still trying to lose the Christmas weight I gained two months ago.
Death by dehydration. What a damned shame eye-for-an-eye justice can’t be meted out here.
My heart breaks. I cried hearing what the brother had to say.
I wish we could make them stand like they did to him until the fat ugly fuckers die.
These two should be burned at the stake. That poor twin brother is going to need lots of therapy and spend many years on a pyschiatrist’s couch! Truly worthless fat fucks!
F*ck these people….
I say put these two dumb shits in the Texas prison yard all summer long in the hot sun from sunrise to sunset and see how long it takes for them to die? All those layers of fat would have to sizzle away so it could be a nice long time and a very deserving punishment.
I like the way you think, Justice.
Excellent idea
I noticed that there’s another website copying some of these articles… this one was reposted at http://www.hellbeasts.com/?p=594 and I recognize a few others, too… it’s another good site but is this website aware/okay with them copying the material?
Not trying to start another cooks source, just thought I’d ask :)
It’s Cleo’s website, so it’s cool. Thanks for the info though….
MAX!!! Are you back? I think I’m going to cry!!!!!
Did I just read that?
Max! I’m so glad to see you posted!
Glad to see you are feeling better.
Speakimg as someone who HAS suffered from dehydration I can swear to all who read this there is NO FUCKING WAY those monsters can claim they didn’t realize it was so serious !!!!first you feel sick to your stomach,then really dizzy,then everything starts to turn black and your legs go numb.After that you start vomiting and fainting. That’s when somebody better get you to an E.R. Fast. My bp had dropped so low that it wouldn’t read on the gauge my heart kept stopping .My dog (don’t laugh,he really did) saved my life by helping back inside the house. Yet these monsters wouldnt even try to save a human child?Never mind it was their own child!!!! I hate to say it but sometimes the more I know people the better I like my dog !
My best friend and I ran out of water on a hike. It was an eighty-five degree day; however, we were in northern Minnesota, not far from a lake, with plenty of moisture in the air, and only had to make it a mile back to our camp site/water source. At a good altitude. Not carrying that much on us.
It is, to this day, one of my most unpleasant memories. I actually shoved down a Power Bar as we were making that trek back to the site, and I remember how that only worsened the dehydration. I REMEMBER it feeling like it was just sitting in my throat. When I read the part about the peanut butter… damn it, you ugly f***s… you could make him a sandwich, but you couldn’t give him a glass of water?!?!?!
I’m sorry, I might get killed, but I have to say it… it’s always big fat ugly women who do this sort of crap. You see them all the time on this site. I have to wonder if they’re so miserable in their own disgusting flesh that they have to make life horrible for someone else. Misery loves company. Maybe this sounds too “Happy people don’t shoot their husbands! They just don’t!,” but I couldn’t help but think it. You rarely see a healthy, fit woman on crime blogs, and if you do, it’s typically something white-collar. It’s always skinny-from-crack or fat-from-crap. So sickening.
True. Fucking. Story.
It is another one of those “statistics” like the majority of sex offenders are hardcore consumers of pornography, but the majority of porn consumers are not sex offenders. I am 217 lbs, close to 5’8″. Female. I can assure you I don’t despise myself, I don’t give a flying fuck if anyone finds me attractive, and I would never treat my children like these people. I’m not trying to jump down your throat and “kill you”. I just obviously get a lot of “you’re a disgusting worthless piece of shit and should never leave your house because you ate a few more slices of pizza than me” messages from well, fucking everywhere. People also assume I sit around all day endlessly stuffing twinkies and cake in my face. I have “won” the genetic lottery in that I probably eat less than you and exercise 30 minutes to an hour a day and I still get to look this way. Awesome! I know I’ve gone on a similar rant of sorts before. And it will be years before I do again, but I don’t appreciate something as simple as taking my daughter for a walk prompting douchebags to say shit about me (they do and have) or assume I’m going to take her home and boil her legs or something. Cuz I’m fat! Ridiculous.

OMG….I had to walk away and then come back to this story. This is one of those stories that will forever stick with me. I am horrified. I lost a brother at 7…he was 4. Other than losing my son recently, that’s the hardest thing I have ever been through. I can not even imagine what the remaining twin and grandmother is going through.
I hope to God that they get tortured day in and day out in prison. I wish I could skin them alive(yes I know it would take years to skin their fat ass), pour sugar water on them and hang them upside down in the sun and above a fire ant bed. I usually don’t go into detail about how I’d torture people but this truly hurts my heart!!!
RIPJonathan. Please watch over Joseph and grandma and help the judge/corrections officer go lenient on the many prisoners that will hurt your sperm/egg donor.
I’m generally not into “an eye for an eye”… but this is such a cruel thing to do, I rather think the father and step mother SHOULD be put in awful overheated conditions.
I read a blog about Sheriff Joe Arpaio’s jails in Phoenix Arizona, the temperatures inside frequently go over 110 degrees fahrenheit. Perhaps they could be shipped down there and denied water?
Actually, you know.. that could be a good use for Arpaio. I’m against his practices but not for sex offenders or child abusers – put him to work punishing them! Make him a special jail!
I think the summer of 2010 I ended up getting a long term temporary position. As I’d been out of work since January of that year I was of course thrilled. The excitement literally dissipated like an hour into the first day. It was maybe 88F outside. We were for some reason doing data entry in a warehouse. An unconditioned warehouse. It was probably around 112F in there. I had to keep getting up about every 30 minutes for water and to stand in the air conditioned cop trailer that was attached to the building (I don’t know why the set-up). I felt like I was going to vomit all over my keyboard and keel over the entire day.
Then, I came back a second day! I was desperate. People complained about the conditions to some far off higher up who I am quite sure was sitting on her ass in a nice air conditioned office. She told us “WEAR SHORTS!” So I quit and luckily the unemployment office was on my side and my benefits were reinstated. I got shit for quitting from family because it was hot, but seriously I could not function mentally it was so hot. Plus I noticed the supervisor giving me the side eye and taking notes every time I went to cool off and avoid death.
An aside, these cunts weren’t even registered with the state. The lady at the employment office couldn’t even find a tax id# or any other documentation besides some cheezy website so I’m sure I got those bitches in all kind of trouble. ~giant smile~
AND MY POINT! These two horrible excuses for human beings should be forced to work in that warehouse with no water, no access to the AC trailer, until the end of their days. Which wouldn’t be long. I don’t understand why his alleged guitar string theft warranted more than taking TV away for a night or something. They apparently wanted him dead.
The brother will be haunted by this for the rest of his life. Poor baby. I only wish I could go to jail and smash a tray or two upside that step moms cranium…..
My heart bleeds for these two kids. I’m a foster parent to a beautiful little boy, I’d lay down my life for him, yet this “father” couldn’t be bothered to step up and save his own flesh and blood son from that piece of human waste that he had for a wife. The surviving twin will need a loving family and lots of therapy to help him deal with the fact there wasn’t anything he could’ve done to save his brother.
Put a bullet in their heads and be done with them, they have lost what makes them human, so put them down like the pathetic waste they are.
For some reason my other comment is awaiting moderation, but I was trying to point out that another website is using stories from this site almost verbatim. I found this story on there, among many others.
Hellbeasts.com is actually a site I set up while awaiting the return of Max the Cat. PYSIH was stagnating for months because there was nobody administering it, so I set up a sister site in the hope that we would not lose our audience. Now that I am helping administer PYSIH, I am using some of those stories until we get our old team of writers contributing again.
Thanks so much for letting us know though. PYSIH is important to me and I hope we will regain lost momentum.
Actually, Hellbeasts garnered you me as an audience member…I followed the recommended link from HB.
Incidentally, I really love the Dreamin’ Demon, but they have taken to blocking it from my online access through work…suck it all! (and they don’t pay me enough to be able to afford internet at home; gotta love corporations who are people too)
The site rocks though…thanks for your diligence in outing the bastids who have no soul and then use that as an excuse to victimize the young and helpless.
PYSIH is one of my new fav sites!
Hi, Scrappy! Welcome to PYSIH! There’s a great community of readers and commenters here, and years of articles about nasties and meanies. Dive in! On second thought you might want to take it in small doses. Cynicism and paranoia are common side effects of reading here.
BTW, I’m still writing articles for HB, so please don’t stop visiting there!
I hope those two fat fucks die the same way in prison.
Five days? FIVE DAYS? 5 x 24 = 120 hours, as much of 80 in direct sunlight, all HOT. Given the appearance of the “father” and his “woman”, they gulped down 20 liters of coke and gobbled numerous Big Macs during this “punishment.” And I know they are stupid, but I thought everyone knew you couldn’t go more than three days without water (if you were, say, shipwrecked… not because two crazy bullies wouldn’t let you near a faucet). So, I agree: they KNEW they were killing him.
There are some crimes on this site that are so heinous that the guilty parties shouldn’t even be put in prison. Make them dig their grave, then shoot them so they fall inside, cover and forget. The only “if” doesn’t apply in this case since no one else could have done it. For others, after guilt is proven.
Deprive the kid of desert, maybe supper, or snacks – oops they look like did that regularly……..
No, not bad enough. You know that poor kid suffered and suffered long, physically AND emotionally. In addition to that, they have caused lifelong trauma to the other child and probably some adults who truly loved and cared for this boy.
I want them to suffer longer. After they dig the hole do the whole “death of 1000 cuts” thing and then let the insects loose, and then, when they are begging, crying, and apologizing, hand them the cyanide and let them know that they can end their own suffering right now if they choose…
The quick death isn’t mercy for them. It’s mercy for us. But, I guess we could making the shooting non-fatal… just enough so they can’t get out of the hole.
Decent people can’t sink as low as people like these. No matter what we did to them, we know they did an evil thing. But, they were low enough to torture a kid who they say “stole.” He may not have (not that he deserved anything like they did even if he did). It is my experience that murderers have huge liars. So, I never believe anything negative they say about the victim.
But, anyway, I think some people are so evil they don’t deserve one more second of traumatizing the world with their presence.
I wish we could do a bunch of nice things for the little boy who lived. I don’t know what can really be done to help him.
I have heard of a similar case where the punished kid lived. He said if his siblings tried to help him, they got punished AND he got punished in front of them. So, they learned helping him would hurt him even more. He was very starved when found. He lived way past when most people would have died.
Greasy hair, piggy faces, beady little eyes, dumb as posts, functionally illiterate for certain, and child-killers to boot — how do these people manage to survive long enough to reproduce?
But they do.
and a lot of people who would make wonderful parents can’t fall pregnant. nature can be unfair.
Nature can be very cruel. I have some good friends who tried everything and couldn’t have a child. They’re now great parents to two wonderful kids they adopted as foster parents. There’s a plan for everyone, theirs just happened to be adopting abused and neglected kids that were saved from monster parents.
I know this is a bit off topic, but I guess all I’m trying to say is that not all horror stories end like this. Some do have happy endings.
Can the state do the same thing to them? NO!
That would be cruel and unusual punishment and I am sure that a bunch of ACLU (Attys, criminals & libtards united) members would defend the rights of these two…..
The cruelest thing we’ll be allowed to do is put them on a diet…. and they will still eat better than our soldiers and many working people.
This is Texas, sir. We are currently installing an express lane for quicker execution services….:)
Lol!
Toss her in the ocean near Japan – maybe they’ll harpoon her.
She doesn’t look like she goes without….
Well maybe in the brains and soul dept,
But she won’t deprive herself at McDonalds……
*sigh* Courts really need to start listening to children as soon as they can speak. You don’t need to be 14 or 16 (the ages they usually give children some minor choice about where they go) to know about abuse or fear. Reading the stories here and so often even preschool age children show signs and red-flags but get no say about where they go. This boy was 10 and he should’ve been given some say and a choice. If anyone had taken ten minutes to listen to him or his brother before they made the court-order they might realize these kids had a legit reason to be afraid. But no one ever does. It’s adult to adult (and if these idiots were ever in a courtroom you can be sure they behaved themselves because they’re just bullies to those smaller and younger).
So many of these things could be prevented if children of ALL AGES were given a stronger voice in the courtroom and could have their decisions respected. It’s not hard to differentiate between a child who is protesting going because their Mom won’t buy them a Furby, or if there’s legitimate abuse going on.
This comment was the last kick in the ass I needed to go ahead and volunteer for CASA. You’re right, these children don’t have a voice because in the eyes of the law, it seems children are less than people so, I will lend them my voice from now on and fight as hard as I can as long as I can. I would urge any of you to d the same.
I have long wanted to do CASA work, but now that my little ones are 6 and 8, taking lessons, and I’m acting as Wolf Pack Den leader (don’t even go there…) I find in addition to earning money, doing laundry and clearing the daily detritus children seem to leave in their wake I have no time for the committment.
One of my dearest wishes is that as the kids get older, can drive themselves to activities, and can be trusted alone for an hour or two I would like to be a CASA volunteer too.
Those who care about kids and want to truly help needy ones with troubled families should look into it.
Please let us know how your experiences with CASA go…
I have volunteered as a CASA for the past three years. As sad as it sounds, just because a child is in the custody of the state doesn’t necessarily mean that they are better off, or even safe. The sick reality is that DHS will offer services for everything from drug-treatment, therapy, housing, food, help with child-care, etc. And it is still not enough for some of these dipshit parents to actually parent their own children. And, yes, I’m cynical. But, the one thing that I don’t understand is this: In any other situation, it would be considered morally disgusting to force an assault victim to be around the person who tried to beat him to death. We would never force a sexual abuse victim to be around their perpetrator. So why in the hell is it ever permissable or acceptable to allow children to be subjected to this when the perpetrator is a parent??
Thank you a thousand times for your efforts to be a voice of reason and an advocate for kids who have few reliable adults in their lives. I imagined CASA work had to be difficult, even heartbreaking.
I don’t hold much hope for the CJS to recognize the obviously absurd choice to force victims to remain in the control of their abusers.
Even more frustrating, I have long questioned how quality is the “help” we as a society provide for the unfortunate children born to these perpetual defectives. Foster care, other family members, and even judges seem like such a crap shoot with very few solutions that truly help the neediest children. It’s no surprise you are a cynic.
Keep up the good work. You never know what good you might have been to any one kid on any given day…
wow, this story absolutely breaks my heart! The suffering this poor little boy had to endure is horrible! I will never understand how someone can continually and purposely torture a child to death! It sickens me!
I have two beautiful twin girls, so this story hit me close to home. I have tears welling up in my eyes, as I think about that poor, tortured little boy suffering, dehydrating in the heat as the hours dragged on and on….and about his brother, watching the minutes tick by, scared out of his mind, trying to think of a way to sneak water to his dying brother. Poor Jonathan is dead because of these monsters, but at least he is beyond the realm of pain and fear and guilt. Joseph will have to deal not only with the devastating loss of his twin brother, but also the unspeakable guilt over not being able to help him. Nothing that anyone says to this boy will ever make him feel that there wasn’t something he could have done, even though we all know that was not the case. He will have to suffer with this unthinkable pain for the rest of his life. There is no punishment that is vile or despicable enough for these two monstrous human beings. They have created a chain of events that not only mercilessly and maliciously snuffed out one beautiful, innocent life, but also devastated and ruined another young, beautiful little boy. Jail is not and will never be just punishment for animals of this caliber.
This hits home for me too. I live in Texas, so I know how the weather is here. I won’t let my kids go out and play in the middle of the summer except early in the morning or late in the evening for the exact reason why this poor child died. When you live in a place where you could have a heat stroke in a matter of hours of just being out in the sun you can never be too cautious.
How do these f*cktards not realize this would kill their child? The depravity of people boggles my mind.
They look like they ate the other kids. :)
Is it just me or does she look like him in drag? :P
When will this website get an update? :/
When is there going to be an update?
Step 1: Take them both out to the middle of Death Valley.
Step 2: Tie them to a cactus (or the ground if one isn’t availiable. Use long metal spikes and wet leather straps for option 2 if said catus isn’t availiable for use.)
Step 3: Leave them for 5 long hot days in the middle of July.
Step 4: Force feed a peanut butter sandwich. Laugh as they choke on it if you so desire.
Step 5: Untie and submerge in a nice pool of ice water.
Step 6: Leave the worthless carcasses for the vultures.
Justice has been served.
RIP Jonathan James. Heaven has another angel, taken too soon, by worthless pieces of trash that had lived too long.
My sympathies to his brother and grandma, too. I can only imagine what they must be feeling.
It is beyond me what people can do to their kids… Fuck this
That’s why they need to do away with court-appointed visits. Judges do not know these idiots we have our kids with like we do. This could have been avoided if the court was doing their job and not making children go off with crazy people. So yes, we can blame these stupid parents, but I also blame the retarded ass court system.
Amen to that! Just because a person donates sperm or eggs to the creation process does not mean that they are fit to be a parent. All that it means is that they like sex.
Now, don’t get me wrong, there’s good parents, and there’s bad parents. If the parental units have problems and can agreeably divorce and sort things out, and the children are in no danger from either of them, then by all means, joint custody and visitation is the answer BUT, if the parents can’t agree to disagree that should be a red flag that something is really wrong.
I wish there were some sort of federal law where people with a background of domestic violence should not gain joint custody or unsupervised visitation. And, if there is, then please, let me know!
I dont understand how such ugly ugly nasty people can have children.
Ten years ago Michael James had sex with someone who was sufficiently attractive to be the mother of cute little Jonathan. It can’t have been his looks that won her interest, so what was it exactly? His money? Nah, he’s probably the next thing to flat broke or he could afford air conditioning. Must have been his winning personality then . . . er, no.
Mindboggling.
Just wondering what was up with Max, is he alright?
Smilee, I talked with his daughter the other day and he’s not fully recovered but better than what he was. He has lost a lot of memory and not sure how to use his computer anymore.
OMG, that’s terrible! I had no idea,… Damn, that sucks so bad, I hope he knows how many he’s helped to heal with this website. I’d be glad to return the favor if only I could. Best wishes to him,…
I’m so sorry to hear he is not well. Best wishes and thoughts for recovery. He has done many good works with this website. Max, you reign supreme!
What amazes me is there are always a few posts that take up for scum like this..Ugly assholes inside and out!
I have a fraternal twin and I can’t even imagine going through this. Two boys lost their lives that day – little Jonathan and his brother who will live with what he witnessed for the rest of his life.
OMG…..OMG……OMG…. what ugly MF’s those 2 are!!! they need to be exterminated fast!
holy shit, does she have a goatee? freckles don’t usually pattern up like that do they? I mean, in species other than frogs.
er, waitaminute….
its been some time. . . but im back . . .
Lets hope all the horror story’s we hear about prison justice are true. Then Michael & Tina will suffer the justice that they honestly deserve.
What is wrong with people? I cannot believe people are so stupid and so evil. They will get their “burning” and suffering without water, when they are in pain in hell for eternity. Jonathan is with the angels, where nothing can hurt him again. Sad story!
These are exactly the type of ppl that should not have kids! And for you stupid ass ppl that say that they just made a mistake and went to far……That to me is like spanking your child on the ass and leaving bruises, not depriving your kid of things to eat and drink and it killing them. Aparently the 2% of you don’t need kids either. These ppl should be tortured the same way that they tortured their son! Let them feel what he had to go through!
/sigh
Just when I get some faith in humanity, shit happens to slap it away
I wish, I wish so much that I could go back in time and swoop down and rescue this poor child and his brother, hug them, tell them everything will be okay, and make sure no one ever hurts them again. I’ve read a lot of sick stuff on the internet but this story is one of the worst.
I agree with many people I too think true justice for the victims would be if we could give the criminals the same type of treatment the victim got it would be nice to see this couple starve and go thirsty and sit in sun light for days with no water..and then tell them now you see how it feels to hurt others in such an ugly cruel evil way.
Yeah I agree with the other comment its always heavy set mean looking women that get caught abusing children..I think that they are proubly so unhappy miserable with themselves have very low self esteem they hate themselves and take it out on the poor kids around them..you could tell by just looking at this couple how mean and ugly they look on the outside in..I would get nervous to have to send a child over to them poor child..must have been a living hell something this couple deserves.
“With degrees reaching 106°F. Without water.” You mean “temperatures reaching”.
Grandmother Sue Shotwell never observed from Jonathan again. When she saw him he was subconscious and passing away in medical center.
Jonathan terrifying his court-ordered check out with his dad and stepmother. He had known as his grandmother Sue Shotwell in overdue May to tell her he was reluctant. He desired to stay with her instead. He informed her, “I know I’m going to be in problems while I’m there because I always am.”
Some people only insist on visitation as a way to get back at their ex. So, when the court orders the kid(s) handed over, half of the time an entirely different person takes care of them. The shrew pictured above just looks so mean. The poor little boys, they suffered so much.
I HATE THEM.
Two words for those demonic wastes of space, ALKALI BATH.
Now that I think about it, I remember reading about this story when it first happened. But at the time, there weren’t any details and it sounded like an accident. The parents had completely lied. I remember reading an article about it on Yahoo, and it said that the house didn’t have central air conditioning and the kid had been feeling sick for a few days. They completely lied and said they were trying to cool him down in the bathtub and by putting him by an air conditioner. They made it sound like it was an accident, like the house was just too hot and they were trying to cool him down. It was a total and complete lie. But I never heard anything else about it, until now.
I had no idea. They were deliberately TORTURING this poor little kid for 5 DAYS! I can’t even imagine the agony he went through. I came across a link to an article about this case last night, and now I kind of wish I hadn’t. I literally felt sick and I haven’t been able to sleep. I just keep thinking about how that poor little kid suffered so much. The brother describing how they made him eat a peanut butter and jelly sandwich after he had already been in this agony for 5 DAYS and still wouldn’t let him drink any water…my God, it just breaks my heart. I feel so angry, I wish I could kill them myself. What kind of a psychopath could watch a kid suffer and die like this??
Thanks, Max….I will now have nightmares about that pig faced woman for years.
They should be charged with double homicide since his poor brother’s life is probably ruined from all the guilt he’ll have over something that wasn’t even his fault. Since the brother obviously appears to have a conscience I’m guessing the parents only had recessive copies of the human decency gene.
I Would Rip The Fat off of the Parents Tied them to a Post and with
their Skinless Red muscles Let them Burn in the Sun and then put Salt and Peanut butter
all over let the ants eat the flesh Off And Grind there
Bones and me dancing the Conga while me scattering the
ashes
That Boy Deserves Better Parents then These Retards
Jonathan your not in pain Anymore your in Peace now
God Wanted you to be His Messenger too beautiful for this
Rotten earth.

Are we sure there weren’t any other victims in their past …that they possibly ate?
It still amazes me(although I don’t know why) what level of evil is possible in the hearts of mankind.
i hope the parents are happy rotting in hell and know how their son felt in the sun. right now we have a cruel, disgusting world
i think this is bs. they should be in hell for good and be a$$ raped by a large dragon in hell, this is just completely F*cked up
Hell is too good of a punishment for these piles of fat and garbage. They deserved to be hung upside down, have their nails ripped out one by one, with vinegar and lemon juice nearby to soak their digits and then be skinned alive and have dog piss and shit smeared on their exposed innards. All while somehow keeping them alive for YEARS.
The jury found Alberson guilty Friday January 18, 2013, of second-degree felony injury to a child for depriving her stepson of water for several days. She hasn’t been sentenced yet, but the term can’t be long enough for this loser!
WTF ! Who would do this to a beautiful child? Oh a sadistic slob and his gal pal Joba the Slug. I hope they get hrown into gen-pop in prison and get the living shite beaten out of them. Especially that thing that looks like a damn ape .
These ADULTS should rot in jail. They deserve a LIFETIME of shame, physical pain, emotional abuse, and no sympathy. To kill a child out of spite and ignorance, to lie out of cowardice and lack of moral fiber…they deserve the worst kind of punishment and pain in this life. A rational person would hope they experience the full weight of the consequences (legitimate and incidental) they are given; however, upon reading about their crimes and shameful behavior, I do not feel rational.
I hope everyone these people care about knows what they did, and rejects them. Harshly. I hope they are stigmatized by strangers. I hope they are placed in terrible prisons full of violent inmates, abusive authorities, and filthy conditions. I hope they get raped, beaten, I hope they wake up every day with nothing to live for, without even the courage to end their sorry, pathetic lives. I hope they rot in jail until they are old and ridden with disgusting diseases that come from living a disgusting life. I hope they read this and know that strangers hate them. I hope their immense pain somehow makes up in the tiniest way for what they did. I hope that little boy who was robbed of his brother feels better, knowing that these fat, ugly, sick, disgusting fucks suffer every day with no relief. I hope they read every word of every comment, and know that they are scum, that people hate them, and that they are too pathetic for words.

The whole family is worthless and should be exterminated.
I HOPE THEY BOTH GET THE CHAIR, BUT PROLLY NOT HAPPENING, SINCE YOU GET MORE TIME FOR SELLING A COP DOPE, THAN FOR KILLING A CHILD, WHAT IS WRONG WITH THIS. THIS MOM AND DAD NEED TO SEE WHAT TORTURE FEELS LIKE
