A young girl was found caged and attempting to eat herself in a mobile home in Virginia, and cops say her parents are responsible. The malnourished girl, believed to be either 5 or 6, was discovered in a crib that was converted into a makeshift cage after police arrived at the home in Gloucester County to investigate a burglary last week.... The girl's blond-hair was matted and filled with knots. She wore only a diaper and t-shirt and was eating flakes of dried skin on her body. Brian Gore, 29, reportedly told police the girl had been kept in the cage since the summer....
"They seemed like nice people," neighbor Tim Hudnall told the newspaper. He noted he had seen the baby boy, but never saw a girl with the Gores in the six years they've been neighbors. "He was really a nice guy," Brian Gore's ex-girlfriend, Sandy, told WTKR 3 News in Norfolk. "He went to church and everything."
Virginia's governor and attorney general are both opposed to allowing same-sex couples to foster or adopt because, you know, every child deserves a mother and a father.
Oh, and the remains of another child were found buried in the yard; a third child—an infant—was placed in foster care. But it could've been worse—they could've had gay parents.
