Autistic boy's death at church ruled homicide


Child was suffocated, autopsy report says



MILWAUKEE, Wisconsin (CNN) -- An 8-year-old autistic boy who died at a prayer service where church members tried to heal him of "spirits" was suffocated, the medical examiner's office said Monday.

Terrance Cottrell went to a prayer service Friday with his mother, who prayed over him with a pastor and other church members. By the time the two-hour service was over, Terrance was dead.

I think it was Anthony Burgess that said the two most common things in the world are hydrogen and stupidity.

Yes, that is sad.

I believe it was Albert Einstein who said:

"Two things are infinite: the universe and human stupidity; and I'm not sure about the the universe."
