What do you do when you owe your ex-wife $4,000 in child support and don't have the money? Well, if you happen to be Danny Platt you simply murder the child.
Platt picked up his two-year-old child, Ja' Shawn, from the child's mothers house for a weekend visit. But soon after the child left with Platt, Daniella got a call from Platt annoucing that Ja' Shawn had been kidnapped. She axed if he called authorities and he said yes, but after getting off the phone with him Daniella called police to find that Platt never called. According to FoxNews "Police said Platt made up an elaborate story about his son being kidnapped by three men armed with AK-47 rifles late Friday night. Platt eventually confessed to the killing, telling authorities he "would kill either his wife or his child before he paid child support," Police Superintendent Warren Riley said Saturday."
Platt then lead to police to the boy's body and was charged with first-degree murder. Platt said he was under a lot of pressure as well as stress. "I'm sorry about killing my baby," Platt told reporters. "I had a whole bunch of reasons."
We're sorry you killed your baby too. Maybe next time try killing yourself.
