Sad....But True

Miami Fl (AP) -A seven-year old boy was at the center of a courtroom drama today when

he challenged a court ruling over who should have custody of him.

 

The boy has a history of being beaten by his parents and the judge initially awarded custody

to his aunt, in keeping with child custody law and regulation requiring that

family unity be maintained to the highest degree possible. The boy surprised the

court when he proclaimed that his aunt beat him more than his parents and he

adamantly refused to live with her.

 

When the judge then suggested that he live with his grandparents, the boy cried and

said that they also beat him. After considering the remainder of the immediate

family and learning that domestic violence was apparently a way of life

among them, the judge took the unprecedented step of allowing the boy

to propose who should have custody of him. After two recesses to check

legal references and confer with the child welfare officials, the judge

granted temporary custody to the Miami Dolphins football team.

 

Both the Judge and the boy firmly believe they are not capable of beating anyone.
