Yeah, I just read that last night. You're right... that is sick. I just read something else on ESPN (I'm actually amazed they've been covering the story this much, it was even discussed on "Pardon the Interruption" tonight)....the 7 year old son "suffered from a rare medical condition called Fragile X Syndrome, an inherited form of mental retardation often accompanied by autism".
It's hard to imagine anything sicker than poking this kid with horomone shots and then smothering him. I'm not religious, but it's times like this that I'd like to believe the kid is in a better place now.
