In today's (Sunday) edition of the Tribune Herald, there's this photo of Tyran Vesperas who was killed protecting his almost full-term mother from her estranged husband. Also killed was the unborn fetus...
Take a good look at the accompanying photo below...that baby pictured along with Tyran was that "Unborn Fetus" That fetus that was kicking, thinking and responding to external stimuli. That fetus should have been crying for his next feeding but instead was never born (note the June 11th date).
The only difference between Matthew Kaimana Erece-Saniatan fate was how he was removed from his mother's womb.
After seeing that photo, and putting a face and name on an unborn fetus, I am totally shocked and saddened at how that little baby (and that is what Matthew really was) never had a chance when that combat knife entered his protective cocoon and was mercilessly murdered with no way to protect himself.
Regardless of Mathew's definition of what he was, the act of killing him was intentional making that MURDER IN THE FIRST DEGREE! Look at that face...that is the face of a baby boy...not some featureless unborn fetus.
And he had a name...Matthew Kaimana Erece-Saniatan.
Tears go out to his mother who has to live with this for the rest of her life. So sad...as a father of six boys I cry for this mother as I write this.
