I pray that the status of Roberts family and influences of Artesia's close nit community who praise there own and justify any and all behavior of those who are in their circle does not influence justice in this case. The 80 letters that were sent to the court to help Robert bond out of jail is a joke and a disreqard to the Ms. Cortez's child. What kind of people would write to free the man who killed his own child.
As a former resident of Artesia I have experienced this injustice first hand. Home town hero status must be thrown out the window. Perhaps the status which Robert was given made him belive he beyond consiquences. I pray he gets the 18 to life with out parole. I'm so sorry Des.

<quoted text>I agree with you Robert is walking around Artesia like he did nothing wrong like he is still that famous QB he goes and lifts weights and anywhere else he can be seen so people can say there poor Robert while my cousin sits at home crying. Dez hates to go out and she did nothing wrong but love her little girl. I personally meet up with Robert and he has the nerve to give me a ugly look like I'm the one that did the wrong. People here in Artesia are nothing but two faces all there doing is backing a killer you can hug him all you want but my cousin will never hug Kalynne again because of that monster.

"Come now, let us agrue this out," says the Lord. "no matter how deep the stain of you sins I can remove it. I can make you as clean as freshly fallen snow. Even if you are stained as red as crimson. I can make you as white as wool. If you will only obey me and let me help you then you will have plenty to eat. But if you keep turning away and refusing to listen you will be destroyed by your enemies. I, the Lord have spoken. Maybe, Robert asked God for forgiveness. Dare you argue with the word of the Lord. Let the Lord be your vindicator and not your mouth or your fingers.

Ya WWJD, I am sure that if I asked "What Would Jesus Do?", there would be a cold day in he11 before he says "Leave your baby in a laundry basket to die, then because you go to confession, carry on as if she never existed." Don't get me wrong, I am all about the Lord's forgiveness and how He can change even the darkest person's life, but there has to be some worldly consequences for having such blatent disregard for His greatest creation.

<quoted text>
Apparently ignorance is on the person who truly does not know the lord, to even write what you wrote, to further educated you in the ways of the lord, let me see if you are smart enough to get this without messing it up as you did before, To begin with the word worldly is exactly why this world is the way it is along with the people in it (myself included because I am a sinner and am trying not be of the world but of the word of God)"Beware of false prophets who come disguised as harmless sheep, but are really wolves that will tear you apart. "you can detect them by the way they act, just as you can identify a tree by its fruit. You don't pick grapes from thornbushes, or figs from thistles. A healthy tree produces good fruit, and an unhealthy tree produces bad fruit. A good tree can't produce bad fruit, and a bad tree can't produce good fruit. So every tree that does not produce good fruit is chopped down and thrown into the fire. Yes, the way to dentify a tree or PERSON is by the kind of fruit that is produced. I do not claim to be the perfect christian but let me further educate you in what I have read in the bible. Whenever you receive a message from me, pass it on to the people immediately. If I warn the wicked saying, You are under the penalty of death, but you fail to deliver the warning, they will die in their sins. And I will hold you responsible, demanding your blood for theirs. If you warn them and they keep on sinning and refuse to repent, they will die in their sins. But you will have saved your life because you did what you were told to do. So again WHAT WOULD JESUS DO TO ROBERT, TO YOU AND TO ME IF WE SINNED, HE WOULD FORGIVE US!!!! no matter how deep the stain of your sins. IF YOU WILL ONLY OBEY ME AND LET ME HELP YOU. I THE LORD HAVE SPOKEN!

Theres a real problem with irresponsible parents in the world. But taking one man's life is not going to help that matter in the least. Her family seeks vengence, but that's not going to help or heal anybody's pain. That's only going to bring more. If we really want to remove child neglect/abuse from our community, we need to stop it before it starts. This man made a mistake, and he deserves to be punished, but no one is worthy of condemning his life. People can change.

Yes, I would. My uncle was killed a couple of years ago so I know what it feels like to lose a loved one because of another person's bad decisions. Let the powers that be judge. It is not our job nor our place to judge ANYONE. I am not saying he shouldn't be punished for what has happened. I'm only saying that no one has the right to judge him.
