So now we have TWO people asserting that people unconvicted in a court of law are "guilty" or "criminals."

OK, guys, now please step back through the looking glass.

Desperate parents abandon children in Haiti
http://news.yahoo.com/s/ap/cb_haiti_abandoned_children
The catastrophic earthquake that left at least 1.3 million of Haiti's 9 million people homeless was the final push over the edge for families that could barely afford to feed their children before. Now stuck in leaky tents with dwindling aid handouts, Haitian families are abandoning their children in the hope that rescue organizations will offer them a better life, aid workers say.
A 4-day-old baby girl was left in a cardboard box outside a hospital. Toddlers are being found alone in hospital waiting rooms. Outside a private clinic, volunteers discovered a 3-year-old holding a bag of carefully folded underwear. A note pinned to his shirt asked those who found him to look after him.....

And then there is 13-year-old Simon, who was left at the orphanage shortly after the quake. For the first time in his life, he ate until he felt full. He began attending school.
He recently sat inside the orphanage's main office next to his older sister, who had come to reclaim him. He tried to hide his tears by pulling up his T-shirt over his nose. When he couldn't hold it in any longer, he laid his cheek on the armrest of the couch, and his tears pooled on the imitation leather.
"If I go back with my big sister, I won't be able to go to school. She's going to make me sell water in the street � like I was doing before," he said. "I'll go back to a hard life."
Sniffling, he was led out of the orphanage.
