I heard on the radio they found a dead one month old baby in the microwave (I am gonna puke) and it was ON!
This was supposedly in Virginia…
Anyone hear about this?
Yeah Kelli, that’s true…I haven’t heard any more infor (I’m at work)…but on the way in, they were talking about it…(yes, it’s in Virginia…in the Hampton Roads area)
<i>I haven’t lost my mind, I have a tape backup around somewhere.</i>
Oh, by Marduk’s twin Phalluses. I hope to HELL you’re just trolling, Kelli.

Oh man. I saw this thread title and was all prepared to quote Brunvand. Then I checked abcnews.com. Now I’m freaked. Totally freaked.
How horrifying! This story makes it look like the father didn’t know what was going on, he called the police because the baby was missing and it was found in the microwave after they arrived. And a friend is quoted as saying the baby was his pride and joy. But it doesn’t say anything about the reactions of baby’s mother or the father’s sister (who’s also living with them). I wonder if someone else in the household was jealous of the baby? Still, I can’t comprehend how anyone could be compelled to do such a thing.

I truly cant imagine a worse way to die…
Why didnt they hear the baby screaming?
It had to be screaming…
I bet this is drug related…if a parent wants to get rib of a baby that age, they use a pillow, or shake it, the microwave thing smacks of revenge to me.
God this is sad.I would loose my mind.The death is bad enough, but to die like that…
Thats it, I resign from the human race as of now !!! How can anyone do something so horrible to a baby ?
I too was hoping this couldn’t be a true story. That maybe it was just one of those really sick jokes people tell and Kelli wanted to know if it had a basis in fact.
I think I’ll go be sick now, and then hug my cub.
A very sad,

I remembered an urban legend from my childhood about a babysitter on acid who put the roast in the crib and the baby in the oven…I too hoped it was not true.
I secon that thought Lioness…I think I will take my cubs out for ice cream tonight and let them stay up really late…hell, they can stay up all night if they want! Then they can sleep with me, and I can hug the tar outta them.
Please dont let it be the mother who did this horrible thing.

Oh, the fucking humanity…
I wanna move up to a big remote mountain and never see another human again. Ever. This is the worst thing I’ve probobly ever heard.

Christ, what’s next? Somebody with only one kidney and a fresh scar is gonna hold a press conference?
Honestly, I’m only surprised that this is the first documented case.

Oh my God.
What the hell is happening with us? It’s bad enough we have psycho’s having temper tantrum with bullets, now THIS?
I was all set to refer kelli to the urban legend of “The dog in the microwave”…I cannot believe this.
It seems like every other month I hear about somebody leaving their child in a car, or somebody abandoning a baby in a dumpster.
But this? This is Evil, in it’s purest sense.
Jesus, I don’t know what to say.
Tastes just like chicken…
Oh, I’m sorry. I’m just as horrified as the rest of you. Really…

Perhaps I am alone in my opinion here, but it seems to me like the mechanism of death is not in reality what makes any death that much better or worse, although I concede that it would suck to have pain being your last memory. I do not understand why people are so horrified by the death of an infant in a microwave who probably was not even cognizant of his situation when thousands of other children die every year, many of them conscious right before their death. Perhaps I have not seen the SPMB after another similar event and can not fairly compare this event ot others.

WHAT?!?!?! You’re joking, right?
You don’t think this baby was in horrendous pain as he was being cooked from the insides?
We should not be horrified because thousands of other children die every year?
I just read your post for the fifth time and I still can’t fathom your reasoning.

Going to hug Christopher now, for a long time, until the tears stop. I started reading this thread because I thought it was an urban legends type thread.

If you’re not part of the solution you’re just scumming up the bottom of the beaker.
The body was found in the microwave. This does not mean that the microwave is what killed the child.
It might have been shaken, or smothered, or poisoned, or any of the other dozen ways that babies have been murdered before. The microwave may have just seemed like a good way to start destroying evidence. So before everyone starts assuming that the kid was in “horrendous pain”, let’s please wait for them to find out the actual cause of death.
I agree that it was a pretty sick thing to do in any case, but there are plenty of horrifying stories on the news every night. I don’t see why this is so much worse than all the other disgusting acts that humans have performed over the past few thousand years.
Of course I don’t fit in; I’m part of a better puzzle.

Actually, now that I think about it (yich) some … no, I don’t think the baby was in that much pain. Or at least, (s)he wouldn’t have been in pain for very long.
The microwave radiation in microwave ovens is tuned to the resonant frequency of water molecules. In other words, water will be heated directly, and neighboring materials will be heated indirectly by being in hot water, so to speak.
And given the tissue distribution in the average infant, a great deal of water would have been stored in … the baby’s brain.
The brain would’ve heated to the point of failure very, very early into the cooking process. More than likely, the baby would’ve died of brain damage long before its guts started to bubble.
In fact … if you could target JUST the brain with a microwave heating device, you could probably put someone to death painlessly. Heck, this might even be the next big fad to replace Lethal Injection on death row…
