The Courant does not think assaulting a two-month-old baby is a serious crime and is protecting the name of the abuser.

According to the arrest warrant affidavit, a visiting nurse called the state Department of Children and Families after seeing the baby with a swollen and black and blue eye. The child protective agency in turn contacted police.

When questioned, both the baby’s Bio-unit and the Abuser at first denied that anyone had injured the child, the warrant said. The mother told police she noticed the injury when she returned from getting food Nov. 6.

After repeatedly denials, the man eventually said he slapped the baby out of frustration. The baby was crying, and the man has sensory problems, he told police. He is on the Autism spectrum and has Asperger Syndrome, and the baby had “a certain cry that really bothers him,” according to the warrant.

He said he tried waking her around and putting her pacifier in her mouth, but it didn’t work. He “used his right hand, in an open hand motion,” to strike the baby, the warrant said.

He acknowledged he needs to get some help, it said. The baby was placed with her grandparents.

Police learned that the baby also has a fractured tibia, or shin bone but the man said “he didn’t mess with the legs.”

I have Asperger's, and the minute my 2-year-old son or any baby cries, my instincts are to comfort, feed or change baby, not hurt them. Or find out if something hurts. I understand for some of us, babies crying are an automatic sensory overload and can trigger a meltdown, but it's NO EXCUSE FOR ANY FORM OF CHILD ABUSE. PERIOD. Any POS defenders can choke on a 15-inch dick. This fucker's an abuser, neurodiverse or neurotypical. Mom needs to not have that cutie pie. Give her to me.
