    Two teenagers were sentenced to jail after duct-taping a 22-month-old child to the wall. The pictures—here with the child's face obscured—show him stuck to the wall at uncomfortable angles and with tape directly on his bare skin.

    The mother, Jayla Hamm, 18, was sentence to 10 days in jail and two years' probation, while her boyfriend, 19-year-old Corde Honea, received a sentence of 36 to 60 months in prison—as well as separate sentences for burglary and possession of a firearm.

    Besides taping the kid, Hamm and Honea taped his favorite sippy cup to the wall just out of his reach. They also appear to have taped his fists closed. The police say they were high; either way, their expressions in the photos don't reflect people who quite understand that two-year-olds are not toys. (The boy's expression, which you can't see, was described by the prosecuting attorney as "terrified.")

    The abuse came to light when Hamm—"momma hamm" on MySpace, where her mood is "depressed" (I'll bet)—showed the photos to a friend, who had the good sense to tell police. The kid will stay with his mother under state supervision.

    Glad they are getting locked up, but snitches get stitches.

    Probably. I don't find what they did funny whatsoever and I can usually find humor in things if it exists.

    What was the reason behind the male getting a much more heavy sentence than the female?

    Just another example of God's biggest mistake: making stupid people fertile.

    ..probably the boyfriend did most of the abuse (i.e., the actual taping) while the mom was too drugged out to care.

    Wow...I mean, I'm trying to think of a way these two could be more redneck trash, and it's just not happening:

    1. Teenage parents? Check.
    2. Redneck names (Jayla? Corde?)? Check.
    3. Wood-paneled double-wide? Check.
    4. Garbage strewn about the house? Check.
    5. Camouflage t-shirts? Check.
    6. Cornhusker fans? Check.
    7. Guns all over the place? Check.
    8. Getting high around your kids? Check.
    9. Duct-taped toddler? Check.
    10. Still using MySpace? Check.

    This is like some Perfect Storm of redneck-ism. I'm almost in awe of the level of trashiness...

    I'm not going to lie. This looks like something I would do with my son...

    That being said I probably wouldn't use duct tape or any kind of tape that would hurt his skin. And kids are pretty flexible. If he looks like he's crying in the picure, which you can't tell, then I'd be super mad. Hmm...I wonder if I would be jailed if I wrapped him in cellophane or something like that.
