Letter to Nancy Grace.

Nancy,

Please highlight the  Christian Choate case and the fact that at least 12 people out side of the home knew of his abuse.  There are new petitions to try and get Christian's law passed.  Christian's story did not get much airtime.  Recent news reports have been released on the sentences of Riley Choate & Kimberly Kubina.  They were the father and stepmother of Christian Choate.  I don’t know if you are familiar with Christian or his story.  Christian was a thirteen year old boy who died as a result of prolonged incarceration in a 3ft dog cage and brutal beatings on a daily basis at the hands of his father and stepmother.  He finally passed away April 5,  2009 as a result of his sustained injuries.  The system completely failed this child.  I am asking Nancy, that you tell his story and help us get Christian's law passed.  Christian's law would make it a felony to not report child abuse if you know for a fact or suspect that a child is being abused.  There have been too many incidents where pediatricians are not reporting child abuse to DHS/DCS.  His story needs to be told. I have attached the affidavit papers and a photo of Christian.

For more information on his story
