Mother Beat 2-Year-Old Melody Vang To Death In St. Paul Home

This is really sad.

MINNEAPOLIS (WCCO) — St. Paul police have identified the toddler found dead early Sunday morning on the back porch of her family’s home — and her mother now faces second-degree murder charges.

A few years ago, I drove late into St. Paul and found a toddler black boy on a diaper; he was running across an intersection.

I stopped him from crossing more, since cars were coming here and there and might run over him.

I called 911. I said it wasn't an emergency but I wanted to know what they wanted me to do with this little kid. They said to hold him there for the police. A squad later came with two officers taking over.

I don't know what the result of that incident was. No one ever called me back about it.

She deserves some jail time. 40 years should teach her why we don’t murder people. Especially her own kids.

Agree, can't handle kids, don't have any...at the very least, give it up for adoption before the breaking point..

It's nice to know that a Hmong is/was the first.

"Melody Vang is St. Paul’s first homicide victim of 2021."

I read only 6 kids total, not 9 and of the 6, one is now dead. Regardless of the number, this is truly a heartbreaking and gut wrenching story. No one deserves to die at the hand of another person, let alone, to die at the hands of her own mother, someone who was supposed to nurture and feed her.

I will not judge her because I am not qualify to. But I will say if you're in the same position as she is, if you find your values and boundaries to be so weak as to make you to want to beat or harm a child, please get help. Get help for the child or help for yourself, but please seek help because that child is your responsibility until you say otherwise.

The authorities are not good in keeping you updated. But you can always check with them on the status lol

She doesn't deserve jail time, wasting tax payers money. Her life for the baby's life is fair.

I don't know how these parents can live with themselves. The husband needs to be charged as well.

Gone way too soon and she can't even defend herself.
