My name is Patrick Janssen. I will not guise my words with anonymity. When I speak I speak with pride. I am taking the time to write this statement because of the gross perversion of some individuals that undermines not only what makes us American but humanity as well. A thank you is needed for those who choose to hope for the best! So I thank you from the bottom of my heart. There is nothing the entire family needs more of in these tribulations they are enduring. My heart also goes out to Douglas and his entire family. I, just as many of you, have known Doug for a lot of my life. Till the end of my days I will not believe Doug or anyone in his family is capable of such a thing. It’s a shame a child starts his/her journey on such a rocky road. But it is even more shameful that people are willing to sacrifice a precious child for the satisfaction of another public execution. There are few, if any, in this world who have the right to cast a stone. Not just the first but any at all.

Not even his whole family knows what happened in this situation. He may or may not be guilty is how I feel and he's my flesh and blood. But chances are if the police through you in jail, more than likely you're at fault in a small community like this. I do know that the little girl can speak, and well, so it's not looking good. As for him being a meth head that maybe true but how many of you are, and how many are left with there meth head fathers, while there mother's go to work to raise them and just need the father or a man in general for support. She is young and she is doing her best, maybe not what is right, but what she feels she can do. So wait until after the court date and pray for the baby. Thanks

I understand this happened while the mother was at work. I know someone who knows her and I can't even think about that poor baby without crying. I have a baby myself and I have never even raised my voice to her. A baby that young only wants to be loved and cared for. It makes me hug my kids harder. I hope when he goes to prison the other inmates do to him what he did to that sweet innocent baby. It makes me wonder if he abuses the other child or the mother.
