(LifeNews.com) – A Oklahoma couple is facing charges after they allegedly starved their teenage son who has cerebral palsy.
Jesus Hibbard, 16, died in September 2017, and authorities said his
parents are at least partially to blame, Oklahoma News 4 reports.
Police said Victor Trinidad, 28, and Lindsie Trinidad, of Tulsa,
Oklahoma, have been charged with child neglect. They said Jesus could
not feed himself, and his parents neglected to feed him. According to
police, he was malnourished and underweight when he died.
Police said his mother told them that Jesus could not eat solid
foods, and her blender “was broken a bit.” The Trinidads also stopped
taking their son to his doctor, nutritionist and therapist, according to
police.
Deadly discrimination against people with disabilities occurs both
outside the womb and in. While abuse like this still is condemned,
discrimination by abortion, assisted suicide and euthanasia tragically
are accepted and even encouraged in some cases.
No matter what their abilities, every human life is valuable and deserving of protection.

This article is just more evidence that the disabled population is the most vulnerable population, even more vulnerable than the elderly.
