LA JOYA, Texas -- Authorities suspect a 2-year-old boy who died with a fractured skull was accidentally crushed by a morbidly obese relative.

Hidalgo County Justice of the Peace Bobby Contreras, who pronounced the child dead Tuesday night, said that investigators believe the woman fell on the child.

That's an unusual way to go... :wth:

I am sorry for the toddler...

But , boy...what a heavy karmic weight , to carry around...

Bet that relative will slim down real quick now! Talk about diet motivation.

Well I mean if you read the article, which is quite short, it seems the child was dropped off with the family member who was BED RIDDEN and the mother left...

ummmm? Talk about screwball, bad parenting, there.

This reminds me of a CSI episode where a guy died when a huge woman passed on drunk on top of him. She was too big for him to push her off, and he suffocated.

Wow, CSI had really jumped the shark at that point huh?

Yeah, the whole episode was centered around a fat convention and the investigation into the skinny guy's death.

That one had me in tears, poor loved starved lass would rather say she killed him on purpose than admit to the truth that she accidently did it.

I see this as the start to trouble for larger people everywhere :(

Fat people are all murderers!

Wow! Why would the parent leave the kid with a bedridden adult in the first place?
