      Watch the sentencing in the Rosenbaum trial. That judge was truly affected by the horrific facts that came out in that trial. It's always the ones where children are the victims. I think because it's just so hard to imagine how someone in a position of trust could use that position to harm someone who loves them and trusts them to provide and care for them. Someone so innocent. These cases always break my heart.

Almost everyone with tears, including the judge and even one defense atty, all except Letecia.

    Al's statements referring to Gannon in his final months calling him Dad instead of Daddy was so poignant to me. Gannon was just a child who was on the cusp of puberty and it must've been the most fulfilling thing to witness your own son go through such growth, flourishing into his own being, and knowing you helped create this beautiful life. I can't fathom the pain to have that feeling ripped away from you in such a brutal fashion. My eternal prayers for this family.

      Touched my heart and soul to the core as onlya fellow father can relate, my 12 year old only son, my baby boy namesake has now started to call me pops, which caught me off guard as well, I can't even begin to understand what Al has been going through, but seeing his unconditional love for his first born son, ultimately is what made G a target for that poor excuse for a vindictive and spiteful human being. That dirty, greasy haired witch knew the best way to pay Al back and hurt him the deepest was by doing the unthinkable, most unfathomable, cruel and evil thing to his little guy. It's beyond obvious she's jealous of that love he had for G, knowing he could never love her or look at her the same way. I'm almost positive she wondered why her own child didn't love her the same way, I can only imagine the trauma poor Harley endured being raised by this monster. I pray for all the family that loved G, this precious, innocent child who loved this worthless demon who hated him. Ugh I could go on and on, how much more despicable and infuriating can this woman be, she is truly the definition & epitome of what evil is.

    Absolutely gut wrenching statement from Al. My heart breaks for him. As I father, I can not imagine the guilt he must feel even though he did nothing wrong. I watched his statement shortly before I picked up my 8 and 5 year old boys from after school care. I gave them an extra tight hug and a kiss on the cheek when I got them. My eyes watered when doing so as I was thinking about Al and Gannon and knowing just how precious life truly is.

      Agreed, i can not imagine how horrible he feels, and while he didnt do anything wrong to deserve this ending, pets not forget how his relationship with evil incarnate started. There was also many signs along the way to warn him of what was sleeping in his bed. Landon saw right threw her. And sounded the alarm numerous times. And instead of being heard, she was called crazy and made to apologize.... to the very evil she saw.
      I say this not to blame Al. There are thousands of crazies in this world, most dont turn to murder. But instead to point to another lesson we should take away from this, aside from being grateful for another day withour children, or lifes preciousness...
      And that is to make the choice of who you allow around your children the most serious, calculated and thought about decision you make in this life.
      And when people show you who they are... believe them. Especially when they are being left to care for your children alone.
      Believe those around you that love you, trust their judgement on a person... even when they tell you something you dont like.
      I pray for everyone of them, and truly hope they find some sort of normalcy from here forward. I pray they find peace in their heart. And im so glad Gannon received gis justice today❤

Gannon came into the world too early and left it way too soon. His father's statement is more than heartbreaking and it's clear from his voice to his tears that he loves his son with all his heart.

The sheer brutality and savagery against that innocent child I just can't fathom, Al and Landon I am so sorry you have had to suffer such terrible shock, the loss, the pain and grief on levels that words could never describe.
