Jonathan Thompson Pleads Guilty To Punching 4yo Adonis To Death For Not Taking A Nap

[Whisper]

Jonathan Thompson​

[....]
New York man has pleaded guilty to beating his girlfriend's godson to death.

Jonathan Thompson
[...]
punched 4-year-old Adonis Reed so hard in the stomach when the boy refused to take a nap that the youngster died as the result of a lacerated liver.

At the time, Reed was living with his godmother, Lakisha Pitt, who was dating Thompson.
[...]
boy's 6-year-old sister was also living at the house.

Thompson, 34, had confessed to the killing just days after it happened
[..]
but in an odd twist was recently suing his former lawyer, and almost every agency connected with the case, claiming a 'clear conspiracy' by all to violate his rights.

In addition to a stay of his trial he was also asking for $500 million.
[...]
the suit also claimed that Reed died not because of the beating he suffered at the hands of Thompson, but rather from 'overzealous resuscitation efforts by first responders and medical malpractice at Good Samaritan Hospital Medical Center'
[..]
Representing himself, Thompson decided to plead guilty yesterday, just one day before jury selection was set to begin.
[....]
likely changed his mind after medical evidence strongly suggested that the beating caused the death, as opposed to any problems with Reed's medical care.

Suffolk County Court Judge Barbara Kahn agreed to sentence Thompson to 15 years to life in prison.
[...]
boy's grandmother, Linda Daniels, said she was happy Thompson pleaded guilty yesterday, but felt his sentence was too lenient.

She was also upset that Suffolk Child Protective Services placed Reed in his godmother's care to begin with and did not do a background check on her felon boyfriend.

Gone too soon: Reed (above with an unidentified relative) was living with his godmother Lakisha Pitt at the time of his death, who was dating Thompson

Well, now. Somehow I don't think causing him pain would get him to go to sleep.
Now he's killed him.
Logic.

So sad. I hope this guy gets a long prison sentence. Punching a 4 year old because he wouldn't take a nap. *Sighs*

Edited because I see he was sentenced to 15 years to life. I hope he gets closer to life but he will probably get out early.

Some stories make me angry, some just make me sad. Sadness is overpowering my anger tonight. Cute little fella...sigh.

What a beautiful little guy. His face and eyes just light up. Glad this monster plead guilty. Hope he goes away forever.

Bastard. Miserable, fucking bastard. This enrages me. Does he have any fucking clue what it is like to be a first responder and have to work on a child who has been beaten to death? No, because he doesn't help children he fucking murders them.

That is a Hell from which you cannot wake up from. I know this from experience. Today, more than a decade later I can still see the call I responded to for a children coding after a beating, I can still see that little girl, I can still hear the screams and torrent of cursing from the mouth of the fucking cunt who beat that child to death. I swear to God if she got the bright idea to file shit like this against myself and my partner I would personally drive to the prison that houses her and death her until I got too tired to continue and then and only then I would allow my partner to assist me.

EMS is a thankless job, people are quick to blame everyone when the shit hits the fan but very slow to recognize that those men and women see Hell every fucking day and for some fucktard to accuse the emergency responders of causing that beautiful child's death, God, he doesn't possess one redeemable quality, anywhere in his body. If onyly New York had the balls to use the fucking death penalty, this fucker needs the injection BAD!

It's everyone else's fault. Right.

That the bastard tried to make money out of the fact he murdered a beautiful child has me incandescent with rage. There needs to be a whole new circle of hell, just for him, where he can cry out to the cold darkness around him, alone, as he slowly dies from a lacerated liver, over and over and over again.

@Krystal

I honestly never thought about how the paramedics felt when they got a call for an unconscious baby or toddler until my baby was jumping on the couch and fell off onto her head on my tile entryway. Knocked herself out cold. I called 911 and they told me to meet the paramedic outside. By the time I got off the phone she had woken up, so I put her in a blanket and went outside to wait. She had calmed and was not crying so the first thing the paramedic saw was a blanket with a baby not crying eyes closed.

The look on his face. If looks could kill I'd be dead. He ordered me to go back in the house and followed me in. When I I wrapped the baby and she sat there unharmed and bright eyed with just a small lump on her head he actually teared up and told his partner thank god I couldn't do it again. Then he checked her out, played with her for a second to make sure she was fine and left.

I didn't get it till you and @Azryhael started talking about your experiences. I get it now and I want to say thank you for what you do.

So many times we talk about how we are angry, pissed, sad, heartbroken or crushed at what happens to these little children. I cannot begin to imagine what law enforcement or the medics who respond to these children in need are feeling. I can't begin to imagine walking in a house and finding a badly abused deceased toddler. I probably would be the one going to jail.

 

[Krystal]

@Nell , thank you!

And thank you for understanding when the medics showed up at your house for your baby. It's those little moments that people never realize that makes the job tolerable. I bet that you made their day by having a smiling little one that they could take the time to play with. I mean that, you have no idea how much that meant to them, so thank you!

Just kidding. I can't find a reputable source...
