Baby Grace documents tell of a brutal death
GALVESTON ‚Äî The 2-year-old Ohio girl tentatively identified as Baby Grace was beaten with leather belts, held under water in a bathtub and thrown across the room, according to a statement her mother gave to investigators. The body of Riley Ann Sawyers was in a plastic container for two months at the Spring residence of her mother, Kimberly Dawn Trenor, and Royce Clyde Zeigler II before it was thrown into West Galveston Bay, according to Trenor’s statement. Those documents provided new details into the case of Baby Grace, whose body was found Oct. 29 by a fisherman. He discovered the container washed up on a sand bar about five miles from the Galveston Causeway.

Is it just me, or is looking at the picture of Kimberly Dawn Trenor the same thing as staring into the face of Pure, Unmitigated Evil? How could any mother worthy of bearing a child participate in or even countenance treated a life that she gave birth to in such a brutal, callous, and yes, Evil manner? I’m not certain I possess the vocabulary that would allow me to fully and adequately give voice to my disgust and revulsion. If Trenor is guilty of participating in the torture (What else could what this monstrous behavior be reasonably called?), I would be all for letting her punishment fit the crime. Let her and her partner in monstrosity meet their maker in the most painfully, agonizing, and brutal way imaginable. No, that’s not a particularly charitable attitude, but if you murder a child, you deserve the same fate. If you brutalize, torture, and THEN murder a child, you deserve to be dispatched to your own personal Hell in the most deliberate and brutal manner imaginable.
How many barren women would have moved Heaven and Earth for the opportunity to give Baby Grace a loving and welcoming home? And yet these two cretins, these monsters, apparently treated Baby Grace as a punching bad…and worse. If I seem angry, it’s because I am. I rarely ever become so angry that I’m borderline irrational, but I’m just about there now…and I have a feeling that I’m not alone.
Riley Ann Sawyers deserved better.
Time to break out the torches and pitchforks, y’all….


Crimes against children and babies evoke an almost overwhelming response that includes revenge and pure hatred. That someone could be so cruel to a defenseless kid is shocking and sad.
But yeah, she does look like the poster child for evil parents everywhere. I'm sure her boyfriend is a fine upstanding gentlemen though.
i haven't been able to quit crying since i first saw this child's picture on the news yesterday, and espcially so since i read the details of the torture inflicted upon this child by her own mother. i totally agree with everything that you have said. i am a mother of 3 children and it breaks my heart that all children aren't loved like mine. how many mothers, like myself, would have gladly jumped in our cars and driven as fast as possible to rescue this child if only the mother had asked? unfortunately she didn't. what can we do??? at the very least i think we should appeal to an artist to render a sculpture of this beautiful Riley in her hometown park, in an area designated for children 5 and under to play, so that everyone would always be able to remember this poor baby that derserved love and happiness. also there needs to be some sort of legislation passed that would allow parents that know they are capable of such horrible acts upon their own children, to be able to take their child somewhere and give them up legally so someone could give them the life that they deserve. also, mothers that do this should steralized so they are unable to give birth to another child after this "surrendering". how do we get something like this going? i don't know, does anyone out there have any ideas?
I don't believe in heaven or hell. But incidents like this one make me hope I'm wrong. That poor child deserves a better place than the short life she led here. And for the monsters that mistreated her, well, hell is far too nice a place.
This is what happens when birth control and abortion are frowned upon and where women are pressured into motherhood.
If young girls were taught that being childfree/childless was a valid lifestyle choice, then maybe there wouldn't be so many of these types of crimes by unfit/unprepared parents.
I'm usually opposed to the death penalty, but the viciousness of this case makes me consider whether it might be appropriate punishment.
Actually, Dennis, I've been thinking that perhaps the death penalty might be the easy way out for these maroons. Why not make them suffer every bit as much as Riley Ann Sawyers did...and THEN dispatch them to Hell?
