PORT RICHEY ? Chekayla Ariel Dampier is a young, new mother and, on Monday afternoon, her 7-week-old son wouldn't stop crying. The 18-year-old was frustrated, a Pasco sheriff's report states, so she punished the infant by holding his head under running hot water until his skin started "coming off and other parts of his skin were 'bubbling.' "

The baby, Emilio Jesus Bautista, sustained severe burns to his head, chest and arms, as well as second-degree burns to his eyes and ears, the Sheriff's Office said. A report states the abuse happened at 1 p.m.; Dampier brought him to Morton Plant North Bay Hospital in New Port Richey at 10 p.m. The baby was then flown to Tampa General Hospital, where, according to authorities, "the infant's burns on his chest caused his left nipple to pull off when his shirt was removed."

He remained at Tampa General on Wednesday in critical condition.

People like this should be punished the same way they committed their crime. Scum of the Earth & a total waste of skin :angry:

Seen far too many of these - kids scalded in a turkey roaster, microwaved, baked alive, thrown on a BBQ, blow torched, you name it. Makes one wish selective memory erasure was a real tech as those are mental images I'd rather forget :(

Actually physically sickened at the thought of that. Unbelievable! Its not just a case of a teenage mind not being able to cope, its mentally sick that she would do that to her child. She needs jail and some serious help for whatever mental illness she must suffer from cause no sane mother would that, no matter what.

To think once the child grows up and learns why it is hes disfigured, honestly sickening.

write this one up as dead if i had a couple million dollars and a couple good men not afraid of doing what's right.

I dont think you'd need a couple million if we had an actual "justice system"

she'll get like what, 2 years? some kid who had some ecstasy gets 10+ years...

Felony child abuse gets you 15 years in Michigan, but it's possible to co-charge her with attempted murder which is a Class A felony with a max sentence of life.

OTOH; ecstasy is a Schedule 1 drug so it's serious. 50- 450 grams gets you up to 20 years, but up to 50 grams gets you just 4 years.
