Worse than that, children

Horrific. Doesn't bear thinking about.

This is one of those where speculating on the details, is probably not such a good idea. The truth will come out

**speculation**

What kind of a 'person' could do this...?

I find any kind of violence of pretty abhorrent. But children are sacrosanct, they should never be harmed in any form. Despicable.

This 'person' will probably never see the light of day again thankfully.

Please can we stay away from social media speculation re: the culprit. Thanks.

What's this **Speculation Deleted** thing? Does it mean that the poster is speculating, but thinks that adding this makes it OK, or have they actually typed some speculation but deleted it before pressing the 'Post reply' button?
Either way, it looks a bit silly.
