    Ok, seriously. The thing that strikes me about this situation is that the father was awarded custody by the court from the biological mother. This is really difficult to do unless the mother is **seriously** messed up. So, only a month before this incident, I'm assuming, this kid was with her unfit mother. How heartbreaking.
