A mother from Gresham, Oregon, USA, has been sentenced to prison after waterboarding her baby and subjecting him to a chilling ordeal inside a freezer, all in a misguided attempt to test the boy’s father’s commitment to their child’s well-being.

The horrifying events unfolded when local police received a distress call about a baby being placed in a freezer at an apartment in Gresham. Officers responding to the scene were met with a chaotic and distressing scene…Click Here To Continue Reading>> …Click Here To Continue Reading>>

Outside the apartment, police officers heard Sharday McDonald, a 30-year-old woman, screaming at the baby’s father, making shocking statements. She yelled, “I’m about to show you real quick. You don’t want him? Let me show you about this little fing baby, I don’t fing give a f*** about.”

Later, the baby’s father showed the police a video call he had with McDonald, during which she held their son and appeared to be waterboarding him. The video depicted the baby struggling as water ran down his nose and face, causing significant concern among the officers.

McDonald was promptly arrested, and during questioning, she admitted that she performed these disturbing acts out of spite, in an attempt to see if the baby’s father truly cared. She stated that she thought subjecting their baby to waterboarding would compel him to return. READ FULL STORY HERE>>>CLICK HERE TO CONTINUE READING>>>

However, McDonald insisted that she had no intentions of causing physical harm or endangering the child’s life through drowning or freezing. Court documents suggest that she acknowledged her actions were inexcusable and motivated by a misguided desire to test her partner’s commitment to their child.

In the aftermath of the incident, police detectives consulted with a pediatrician who reviewed images of the October 2021 events. The pediatrician’s assessment revealed that the baby would not have been able to breathe with water running into his nose, and this horrific act could have resulted in life-threatening complications.

On September 19, Sharday McDonald was sentenced to 30 days in jail on charges of criminal mistreatment, tampering with a witness, and identity theft. According to Multnomah County Detention Center records, she is scheduled to be released on October 6.

This deeply disturbing case serves as a stark reminder of the need to prioritize child safety and well-being above all else and to address issues in a responsible and lawful manner, rather than resorting to harmful and dangerous methods.

When I asked about his job two years ago, he told me he was an investor. I took it literally until I asked him days later what he invested in. He laughed. “You won’t understand. Maybe later,” he said. My curiosity was piqued so for days, I pressed him to tell me what he was into. He told me he was a blogger. I asked for his blog and he later changed what he said.

I’m into bitcoin. It’s a lot complicated but it’s not a permanent job. I’m working on starting something on my own with the money I earn from Bitcoin.” I left it there knowing very well that time would do justice to the rest of the story.

He was mostly on his computer. Sometimes I would sit next to him and watch what he was doing. There were numbers that kept changing. I didn’t understand anything but he was doing well so I figured whatever that was was good enough. We dated for over three months before he opened up fully that he was into betting. I looked at him, wondering how betting could be a job. By the time he finished taking me through everything he had gained through betting, I was convinced he had the magic or he was a pro at what he did. He had a building project going on.

He told me everything came from betting. He had a small shop where he was selling phone accessories. He had given it out to someone to operate. That also came from betting. Where he was living was rented. A two bedroom apartment he said he rented with a friend but later the friend moved. That also came from betting. He had a beautiful car.

He said it came from one win. I knew betting wasn’t a winning game. Everyone said they lost a lot before they won once so how could he be doing so well at something everything was losing in? I spoke to friends about it. Guys who were also into betting. They said it could be real or there was some sakawa going on. The way I saw it, it couldn’t have been sakawa. He didn’t have excessive money to throw around. He didn’t live extravagantly. Just an ordinary guy going through life and making decisions that later earned money.

Though I didn’t buy the sakawa angle, I put my eyes on the floor to see if I could find something fishy. One year later, all has been well. The only thing I see is a meticulous man who is also calculative in his ways. When he wins, he shows me the cashout. When he loses, we talk about it together and insult the team that spoils the bet.

Slowly, it became a business for us rather than for him alone. He would tell me about two teams I knew nothing about and ask who would win. I wasn’t right all the time but the times I was right, we won big. I asked him to go into business with the money he had been winning. He told me he had tried that three times and failed so he was rather concentrating on his building project and maybe go into estate development later. He has big dreams.

That’s one thing I like about him. Currently, he invests in treasury bills and other soft investments here and there. The first time I took him home, it was just a flash. We didn’t spend more than five minutes there but my dad called to ask who he was. I told him he was just a friend who gave me a ride home. He didn’t believe me. He told me he looked like a good guy so I shouldn’t let him slip. The second time we went home, it was my mom who raised the flag of suspicion.

She went directly to him to ask who he was to me. He told her we were just friends but my mom insisted he was lying. She told him, “There’s a man worrying us for her hand in marriage. Are you telling me we are free to give her away?” He laughed sheepishly. My mom said, “You see I’ve caught you? We’ve been like you before so don’t think you’re smart. It’s not even a bad thing so why would you run from it?” Currently, we are at a place where I have to tell my parents the occupation of my boyfriend because we are talking about marriage.

My parents are very traditional. When my elder sister was about to marry, my dad visited her boyfriend at his workplace to ascertain if he was telling the truth about his occupation. It was subtle. Like, “I was around the area and remembered my in-law’s office is around the corner so I decided to pass by.” It was his way of confirming what he had been told.

He said my mom’s parents did it to him and he’s taking it from them because it’s a good thing. My boyfriend’s job is not traditional. They’ll understand if I tell them he works from home or he has his own business but they’ll like to know what goes into the business. We decided to use the phone shop but it’s too small for him to buy the kind of car he’s driving. My dad would raise questions. I told him, “I will tell him the truth. You’re not a thief.

You make money online and that’s legit.” I told my dad, “He’s an online person. He works on the internet and gets paid a good sum of money.” “Is he doing sakawa?” he asked me. “No, it’s not sakawa. This is legit. Like investing in online business. You won’t understand everything so yeah, he’s into online businesses.” My elder brother called the next day asking me, “What does your boyfriend do that you can’t explain to dad? He has asked me to talk to you about it and come and explain it to him.

I confessed to my elder brother because he and I are like that. We talk. We laugh. We have a connection. He said, “You can’t tell this to dad.” I told him, “Then dress it up for him the way he will understand it.” He replied, “If he later finds out, he will never forgive the two of us so let’s tell him the truth and use the future real estate business as a defence.” Knowing the kind of man my dad is, if I tell him the truth, that would be the end of our relationship.

He would say a man who bets doesn’t have a future. Apart from that, every good perception he has about my boyfriend would be erased, because, to him, good men don’t gamble.

I’ve been thinking about it but nothing assures me that it will be easy. Dad would exaggerate the issue. Mom will add drama to make it look like the worst sin a daughter can commit. In our world, we can shroud betting in beautiful clothes and present it as wholesome but in their world, betting is gambling and gambling is for kobolors. What would you do differently if you were in my shoes? Lie your way out, right? As in paint his job with white colours as you wait for a future where the two of you will transition into something formal, right?

A little boy wakes up from a coma and says four words, and then he closes his eyes forever, leaving his family in tears.

Any parent would be willing to let go of that memories if it meant their kid would live to a happy old age.

Unfortunately, Ruth Scully, the mother of a 4-year-old boy named Nolan, only remembers what she had with her little son in their final conversation…Click Here To Continue Reading>> …Click Here To Continue Reading>>

In November 2015, Ruth Scully and Jonathan Scully got the news that almost any mother or father would dread that their 4-year-old son Nolan was diagnosed with a rare form of cancer.

Nolan was just two years old when he was diagnosed with Rhabdomyosarcoma, a rare soft tissue cancer. These tumors develop from muscle or fibrous tissue and can grow in any body part.

Doctors told Nolan’s parents the boy needed to start with intense treatment to fight the disease. The procedure would include 43 weeks of chemotherapy sessions and five and a half weeks of radiotherapy.

The first round of chemo was rough on Nolan’s little body, but the brave boy kept enduring.

His parents created to GoFund page on Facebook to help them pay for the treatment. They also used to update their child’s condition and said that watching their son suffering was the hardest thing in the world.

Unfortunately, even with the treatment, the cancer still attacked his body, and the doctors were worried.

As a result, the boys’ families were called at the start of February 2017 to meet with his oncologist.

The doctor’s expression and the sadness in his eyes said all they needed to know. The specialist explained that Nolan’s CT scan report had shown large tumors that had grown.

These tumors were compressing both his bronchial tubes, and his heart cancer had spread like wildfire; consequently, there wasn’t anything more the doctors could do except that the continued treatment could do for her son.

He was staying in a hospice. However, his mother said, “We just wanted ONE more night together. “But as he woke, he gently put his hand on mine and said, ‘Mommy, it’s ok. Let’s just stay here ok?’ She also mentions, “My four-year-old hero was trying to make sure things were easy for me.” Over the next 36 hours, the little boy watched videos on YouTube and played with those closest to him.

He even created a will for his family; heartbreakingly, Nolan also drew a picture of how his funeral should be planned.

The smart boy decided who he would like to carry his coffin to untold his parents what he thought the congregation should wear. READ FULL STORY HERE>>>CLICK HERE TO CONTINUE READING>>>

He always dreamt of becoming a police officer. Therefore, he wanted his family to remember him as a policeman.

Although Nolan wanted his mom by his side, he relented in one instance. When his mother, Ruth, asked him if it was okay for her to shower.

He agreed on the condition that his uncle would sit with him instead. So the child turned toward the bathroom and watched his mom close the door.

As the door shut, Nolan closed his eyes and fell into a deep sleep.

After leaving the bathroom, his mom saw that her son’s support team had gathered around his bed.

Naturally, it was a moment of high emotion, and the medical staff revealed his fragile condition.

They said that Nolan couldn’t feel anything and was also having difficulty breathing because one of his lungs had collapsed. Without any hesitation, his mom climbed into bed next to him. While Ruth knew she was going to lose her son soon, perhaps no one could have predicted what would happen next.

It was a miracle. Nolan opened his eyes again as he still wanted to say something to his mom.

So the boy turned his gaze towards his mother and said, “I love you, Mommy.” Then just before midnight on February 7th, 2017, little Nolan passed away with Ruth singing to him. The four-year-old’s final words will be forever etched on his mom’s heart.

Ruth then uploaded a touching Facebook post two months after Nolan’s demise. She told the world about her son’s last message and also expressed the pain of losing him.

There Ruth mentioned how her child woke up out of a coma to say he loved her with a smile on his face.

The post said, “My son passed away like a hero and brought communities of different occupations together.” He made a difference in people’s lives all around the world and was a warrior who left with dignity and love. She described the feelings of agony and grief she has experienced since Nolan lost his “courageous battle.”
