three–year–old Shanaya Jones was beaten to death by her father
her mother stood by and watched
According to evidence presented to the Grand Jury, Shanaya Jones on August 6, 1996 began an extended
visit with her father and defendant, his wife. Defendant described herself, during Shanaya's
visits, as the child's "mother," "stepmother" and "primary
caretaker." Between August 14 and 16, Shanaya's father repeatedly punched the child, threw
her into a wall and pushed her onto the floor, apparently because she would not eat. While defendant
witnessed her husband inflict most of these beatings and was aware that the child had stopped
eating, she did not seek medical attention until late in the evening of August 16, when Shanaya was
brought by ambulance to a hospital emergency room. By the time the child arrived at the hospital,
she had stopped breathing and had no pulse. After attempts to revive her were unsuccessful, she was
pronounced dead.
An autopsy revealed that the cause of death was physical abuse sustained while at defendant's
apartment. Shanaya's body was covered with bruises, lacerations, abrasions and hemorrhages.
Several of her ribs were fractured and a lungwas punctured. The Medical Examiner concluded that the
injuries were days old, and that many of them would have been very painful, causing the child to
scream and cry. The Examiner also determined that Shanaya was starved and dehydrated.

FREE FROM OUR PAIN
I DO NOT SUFFER I AM NOT IN PAIN ANY MORE
I AM NOT THE LITTLE ONE THAT I WAS BEFORE
I LIVE WITH THE ANGELS IN GODS LOVING CARE
THERE IS NO MORE PAIN FOR ANY OF US LIVING THERE
IT IS A WONDERFUL GARDEN WHERE WE CAN ALL PLAY
THERE IS SO MUCH FUN AND LAUGHTER EVERY DAY
WE ALWAYS LOOK DOWN WITH LOVE AND CARE
MAKING SURE THAT THERE ARE NO MORE HURT BABIES WAITING FOR US THERE
IF THERE IS WE WILL FLY DOWM AND CARRY THEM WITH LOVE
WAY UP INTO HEAVEN IN THE BLUE SKIES UP ABOVE
THERE THEY WILL GET GOD TO EASE ALL OF THEIR PAIN
THEN HE SETS THEM FREE TO BE A LITTLE CHILD AGAIN
WHERE WE DANCE ON THE CLOUDS WITH WINGS OF LACE
WE CAN HOLD EACH OTHER CLOSE IN A LOVING EMBRACE
NOTHING OR NO-ONE CAN HURT US EVER AGAIN
IN GODS TENDER CARE WE ARE FREE FROM ALL THE PAIN......

STOP CHILD ABUSE!!!!!!
YOU WERE SO PERFECT IN EVERY SINGLE WAY
BUT THE MONSTERS STILL TOOK YOUR LIFE AWAY
THEY DID THE MOST UNFORGIVABLE SIN AND HURT YOU IN EVERY WAY
THERE IS GOT TO BE MORE THAT WE CAN DO TO STOP CHILD ABUSE TODAY!
I DO NOT UNDERSTAND HOW THEY COULD COMMIT SUCH A CRIME
THEN JUST WALK AWAY WITH A SMILE DOING SO LITTLE TIME!
IT MAKES ME SO ANGRY THAT THIS HAPPENS EACH DAY
THAT THE SCUM OF THE EARTH JUST GET UP AND WALK AWAY!
SHAME ON THEM FOR THE REST OF THEIR MISERABLE LIFE WITHOUT YOU
I WISH DO MUCH THAT THERE WAS MORE THAT I COULD DO
TO SAVE OUR CHILDREN THAT SUFFER EACH DAY
TO HELP MAKE ENDLESS SUFFERING JUST GO AWAY
FOR EVERY HURT ANGEL THERE WILL ALWAYS BE EVEN MORE
ALL JUST SAT WAITING TO HEAR YOU ALL CALL
THERE SUFFERING WILL BE OVER WHEN THEY FINALLY JOIN YOU
ANOTHER HURT ANGEL WHAT CAN WE SOCIETY EVER DO?

I looked out of the window
About twelve o'clock last night
And saw two shooting stars
Up in the sky
And as I stood and watched them
Right before my eyes
They opened up Heavens gates
Where angels stood inside
Then I saw you standing next to them
And you where wearing wings
And right above your head I saw
A Stunning golden ring
That sparkled in the distance
Then shone right down on me
Now every time I close my eyes
Your face is all I see
An angel up in heavens
Beyond the skies above
Watching over all of us
Filling our hearts with love

RIP sweet Shanaya
~~~For All Our Little Angels~~~
For all our little angels
Gone before they've grown
No one knows the reason why
The angels called you home
I've asked the Lord a million times
Why this should have to be
The angels whispered softly
One day you will see
That doesn't help us now
We're feeling sad and low
We need to understand
Why it is you had to go
But I know we will never get
An answer to this plea
Until we are together
In heaven for eternity
So many of us miss you
So many of us grieve
So many hearts are broken
Because you had to leave
Be happy our little angels
Remember each of us with love
Until one by one we meet again
With you in heaven above.

Verse Writer unknown..
NITE NITE SHANAYA.
An Angel came and took your hand and held it for a while
Then the Lord sat by your side and offered you a smile,
'It's time for you to come' he said, your life on earth is through,
Take my hand don't be afraid i'll take a walk with you,
We'll climb the stairs to heaven to a life thats free from pain,
And when friends and loved ones are ready,
That's when we'll meet again.

REST YOUR WEARY HEAD AND DRIFT OFF INTO DREAMS,
FROLIC IN THE SUNSHINE AND BATHE IN GODS MOONBEAMS.
USE THE STARS AS STEPPING-STONES TO TAKE YOU TO YOUR PEACE,
THE PAIN OF LIFE FORGOTTEN NOW YOU HAVE FOUND RELEASE
WITH OUT RAIN A FLOWER FOLDS,THE PETAL DROP AND DIE,
THERE WAS NO WAY TO SAVE YOU,YOU COULDNT EVEN CRY.
SO WE CRY ALL THE TEARS INSTEAD AS WE MUST LET YOU GO,
TO HEAVEN AND GODS GARDEN TO BLOSSOM AND TO GROW.
THE LITTLE SEED IS PLANTED,YOU'LL BE WATERED EVEY DAY,
THE ANGELS WILL TEND ALL YOUR NEEDS AS IN THEIR ARMS YOU LAY.
YOUR LIFE WILL BE AMAZING NOW AND FULL OF WONDEROUS THINGS,
REST IN PEACE DEAR SWEET SHANAYA,GO FLY ON ANGELS WINGS.
