Exactly. And drig addicts should immediately have parental rights terminated. If you don't love your child enough to quit drugs, you should not be allowed to raise a child. Everyone failed this little girl. The uncle tried to get help, but everyone else is complicit in her death. That step mother especially has a lot of blame. How anyone can stand by and allow a baby to get beat is an absolute monster. RIP sweet Harmony. At least your pain is no more.

The judge who gave that monster custody should be in prison as well. They should have NEVER taken Harmony from her foster parents home.

Not trying to defend any of the perpetrators but, I'm interested if the investigation looked into whether Kayla may have been suffering from battered woman syndrome considering Adam's unregulated and perpetual violence. BWS which if I'm not mistaken, repeated reconcilitory acts may also extend to children who are victims of the same abuser. Just speculating, she seems remorseful/traumatized and was willing to testify against Adam only after she felt absolutely safe that she could do so knowing her own life/safety wasn't at risk from him retaliating (hence her lying to him and committing perjury). This whole situation is tragic beyond words, for sure.

It’s sickening that these children keep going back to the same situation over and over.

[@BrittanyH907]

It is. I lost my children at one point due to it coming out that I was on drugs. No criminal history, no abuse... but you can't be on drugs and take care of children. You just can't. My sobriety date is their removal date. I fought like hell to get them back and never did relapse. 9 months it took me, and I couldn't understand why it took so long. I watch stuff like this and... wonder why they gave them back so fast. I honestly to this day don't know if I deserve to have a second chance as their mother, but I'll tell you that at my worst my children were fed, clothed, snuggled, and always had a warm place to live. I would have killed someone for hitting them or any other child. Neglect is abuse so, no excuses - because I was absent. In the garage doing drugs when I should have been being a mother. They weren't properly supervised, and they had no stability. Up till 2 am, dinner at 10 pm, etc. If I ever were to relapse and go down that road again? I don't deserve another chance. You either learn or you don't. If you don't, children shouldn't be the ones to pay the price. Addiction sucks, and it takes a lot from you... but it's still a choice. Murdering your child is a choice. Dragging her body with you all over the place is a choice. Freaking disgusting. Yes, we should try to keep families together - until parents make the choice to prioritize their bad habits. Protecting the child should always be the priority. Always. Not protecting the addicted pos's parental rights.

The truth is there are no good foster homes...they are a myth. As a child raised in foster care, abused, beaten, bounced around, placed in groups homes and far worse, I am going to let you in on a little secret, the system is corrupt. There are two kinds of foster parents, those who stack you like sardines, force you to do all the house work, beat you if you dare to argue, feed you kraft dinner while eating roasts and steaks with their children/family- all while screaming about how grateful you should be...these are only in it for the money. Otherwise you are ignored. The other foster parents are looking for weak children who are easy targets, they do not need the money, and are looking for victims who are too weak or too tired of the constant shuffle, to complain...( As children when you have been assaulted by foster parent after foster parent, you come to believe this is normal adult male behavior - because it is all you know, the only kindness you have ever received by any adult began and ended with some for of molestation) IF one of the child's parents are working, ( not on any form of assistance ) they will almost always get custody...regardless of that person's crimes or intentions. ( Seen one male get custody even though he caused the child brain damage from shaking her as a baby, shot at his pregnant wife and child as they fled a 48 hostage situation, where he kidnapped them, he beat up numerous officers, did ten years in the Penn,) and yet they gave him custody over the mother because she would need financial support, and he did not... The workers understand that to take a child away from parents, even bad parents exposes them to all kinds of hardship, with strangers who's motives are always self serving...foster care is not a happy place, and children that come out of foster care are fked up for life

It's easy to sit in judgement when you are not the abused. I used to think like this when I was young, and then I learned better... This type of man isn't afraid of a piece of paper.

You don't notice it at first, as they are not demands, just polite asks...like "baby, you do not need to wear make up, you are far more beautiful without it..." and when you wear it anyway they act hurt, or disappointed, manipulatively they slowly taken things away from you, until it's no longer an ask. The first time they hit you or threaten you they immediately apologize, begging for your forgiveness. Family, and friends are not usually aware of when is going on until it's too late, as yi are too embarrassed to talk about it, and he's promised to change... If you leave him, he doesn't let you go, he stalks you, watches you and lets you know he's there....and he cops do nothing...which emboldens him. These men will stop at nothing to get what they want, you become a prisoner in your own home. Kidnapping your wife estranged or otherwise was not a crime until 1996. He could even force you to have 'relations' with him, and he isn't breaking any laws...going to a shelter from your marital home was your right, but cops refused to take the children with you, as they belong to their fathers until 1991, so you would be forced to stay or flee under your own steam, and might even be charged with removing the children from the home...so many women stayed to protect their children...

@@HumanityInCrisis I have no idea. The system is flawed

[@karenhorton5412]

The judge should be held accountable for Harmonys death! Total BS!!

[@fleetwoodray]

Until I saw this, I had no idea a demented monster has parental rights. It was bad enough shuffling this child back and forth with her weak drug addict mother but give full custody to the lifetime criminal and drug addict father as well? Sick!

When is ever "THE CHILDS BEST INTEREST" gonna be the priority?!

[@franciscopereira2341]

That only counts when its about making a man pay child support for a child that isnt his

[@mariahmakinen6887]

How the girlfriend could live with herself knowing that child had passed and did NOTHING is beyond me. Traveling along with a corpse, saying nothing to anyone and letting that monster continue, it makes her just as guilty in my eyes. There's witness protection if she was that afraid of what he'd do. It makes me so angry that anyone who knew did nothing, said nothing and just kept going like everything was fine. CPS failed, the judge failed and the police failed. This happens so damn often that it makes me sick.

[@foreveranna11]

Its crazy too bc i have heard and understood many stories where someone is afraid to stop something or tell the police bc their life would be in danger however she genuinely was in the best possible position to be able to do that safely she just didnt want to. They were literally travelling with her body in the trunk, any stop they made she couldve told someone to call the police and to approach unnoticed and make him open the trunk, she wouldve been completely safe and he wouldve been arrested right then

[@Ninetieschannel]

So sb not standing up to the abuser is as bad as a murderer? U cant be serious.

[@katieb8239]

this woman shows no remorse at all - knowing little Harmony was murdered and then travelling and hin=ding her body makes her an accomplice to murder

[@annebarr4908]

I feel such sorrow for this little angel, who are these people? The girlfriend is as bad as him if she was frightened how did she think this little girl felt. These two are not human I’m so upset for this little one - the look he gave was scary. My goodness is the girlfriend on drugs? She could have done so much more - her tears are not working oh my goodness I can’t believe there are people like this in the world. I hope the other children have been removed.

[@rem22922]

kayla saying she didn’t intervene because adam looked evil so she was scared…imagine how scared harmony was, her father is so much bigger than her she has no chance of fighting back. kayla COULD HAVE done something, especially being in public. that’s a pretty busy area where they described it happening (i lived in manchester). so infuriating

[@em84c]

Why didn't she run outside and call police??

[@user-uy5tw9dd1v]

I agree, any decent human being would have found a way but she was more concerned about herself, no doubt about that, no phone??? privacy in a bathroom maybe???plenty of ways she could have helped poor Harmony.

[@jen-ms4xo]

​@@user-uy5tw9dd1vyes like #1 leave the pos and go straight to the police station and report everything

[@betsyvanek9275]

I'm sure that little punk Adam Smashed Harmony full force & she was so tiny and blind in one eye...babies & children are not possessions to be fought for...When will these small victims be cherished & protected?

[@sephinarose420]

That whole time she was comfortable listening to that baby scream.. I hope it haunts her.. but it looks like it doesn't.

[@GG-vs5uk]

I 100% agree with you Vanessa. That poor child was deprived of loving care from the foster parent by that judge. God help all the children in those systems, whose happiness depends on a judge. My condolences goes out to the foster mom. She was the only one who loved that little girl. 😢😢😢😢😢😢😢. So sad.
