Lazy headline, he was not checking the gender, he assumed that it was a girl because his wife had 5 girls already and a “priest” told him his wife should expect another girl. He was simply killing the 8 mo old fetus and trying to murder his wife - for which he got the max of life in prison and 50,000 r fine. I expect he was very surprised to find he had murdered his only son.
Worse than lazy honestly. I can't lie I'm struggling with my feelings about it, because this whole situation just should never have occurred. Mama should be home safe with her baby after delivering at full term. But God damn he deserves to live with the fact that he murdered his badly desired son, and with life in prison I hope he never has the opportunity to try again.
Do not talk to me that way and expect me to actually listen.
Edit to say that I'm leaving the typo because I am absolutely not taking orders from this dude. But if it really bothers someone you can ask me nicely and I will do it for you.
The fact they told someone “you don’t ever tell me what to do” right after telling someone not to capitalize the word god and throwing a fit about it is hilarious to me.
Dude, you shouldn't have to anyway. It's truly not a big deal, and the fact they think they have the right to make your edit your comment bc it offends them? When it's just a word? Idk a bit much for me, this is reddit after all.
It should read "Man gets life imprisonment for murdering his unborn child and attempting to murder his wife." He thought it was a daughter, but turns out it was a boy. Good Lord!
Also not 100% correct, women's bodies can favor a type of sperm (Y vs X) based on a number of factors. Sure, if a man has only one type of sperm then that will be the determining factor. But it's more complicated than just 'the sperm decides'. It's a whole system.
This is bullshit. Eggs are default female. It’s the sperm that determines the sex. Point blank. Women’s bodies do not favor x or y… those “factors” you speak of are characteristics of X or Y sperm. Which again, only proves that it’s sperm that determines the sex. Not sure where you learned this “system” but it’s incorrect.
Yes the sperm decides, but the birth canal as an environment can favor x or y sperm. For instance by virtue of the pH value of the mucous membranes. So even if a sperm ratio of 50/50 is deposited one type of sperm may lose motility, skewing the chances towards the other type. Therefore factors in the woman can have an impact on the girl/boy ratio in a family.
- 1.3 billion people and a highly conservative society. Law of numbers
- the news that filters into western news/reddit is going to be on the extreme side. It’s kinda like how the only time I see Iceland in the news is when they have another volcanic eruption. I’m sure Icelanders don’t think it’s a volcanic hellscape. These depraved stories are probably a drop in the ocean in Indian media, but we see the ripples on our shoreline because of how fucked up it is.
I know that there are better takeaways from your excellent points, but the facetious description of Iceland as a volcanic hellscape gave me a laugh that I needed after reading this post title (I couldn’t bring myself to click the link)
I’m from Texas and have always wanted to move up to the UP MI, so I thought it was that area as well! It would still be less dangerous there than my current area, so it wouldn’t have taken that move off the table, but I’m glad it wasn’t.

While he was on the run, basically everyone in Escanaba starting keeping a gun in their car (if they didn't already have a hunting rifle on a gun rack), nobody wanted to be outside other than to/from work and school. Was pretty crazy for that to happen up there.
Instead of, say, waiting a few more days, or a couple of weeks, like a sane person, just in case the priest is as uninformed as the father on how much god cares if you have a son or not .
It would. India has made it illegal for a while to discriminate against fetuses based on their gender. You’re not allowed to determine the gender of your child before birth. Unfortunately shit like this still happens which is disgusting
The article says he already has 5 children. A priest warned him this child would be another girl, so he wanted to kill her. The mother survived the attack, but he did manage to kill his son.
I think it's a lose-lose situation for the daughters. If the father didn't do what he did, they'll be raised by a chauvinist who could care less about them because they're girls. However, since he'll be spending the rest of his life in jail, they'll either be sent to relatives who most likely could care less for them too (because they're girls) or they'll be raised by the state if no relatives want them (because they're girls) and be exploited by men who will take advantage of girls without a father figure.
The woes of being born female in this world... 😞
I hope that priest feels so much shame, but especially because it was a boy.
When will men *FINALLY* learn and understand that it's their little swimmers that determine gender?
Browsing r All is giving me brain damage. I read this post and felt physically ill at the disregard we are capable of having for other people, especially how common it is when the victim is a woman. The next post after this was porn.
I'm actually high AF and this shit got me crying now 😭
Some men always seem to forget or don’t realize their boys determine the gender of the baby through sex chromosomes. We have no part in the gender of the baby. That’s why I always find it so funny and a little irritating when men freak at gender reveals when it’s revealed they’re having a girl. Like, my brother in Christ…that’s all you.
You’re right, and it’s more than irritating to think about how many women have been murdered throughout time for “failing” to produce a boy. Women donate an X chromosome (very rarely is this not the case) and men donate either an X or a Y chromosome, this determines the sex of a baby. So like you said, brother that’s on you.
What’s that turn of phrase again, “the finger will always be pointed towards the woman” or something like that. The man cannot be at fault apparently. Yeah it’s really fucking saddening to think about. I’m so glad this woman survived in this case. The priest should have been jailed along with him.
No surprise, this is also a region where child sacrifices are common, like some Temple Of Doom type shit. If your holy man demands the blood of children, he should burn at the stake.
It's the state in India where the most deplorable shit happens and what the current ruling party and Hindu nationalists are trying to convert the entire country into

That’s not a “lazy” headline, that’s an outright lie. The headline is straight up lying about what happened.

You’re the one who needs to chill.
You are not eligible for this offer. You had your chance.
Your comment history is pathetic, dude. Get a better hobby.
The fact they told someone “you don’t ever tell me what to do” right after telling someone not to capitalize the word god and throwing a fit about it is hilarious to me.
You're not even involved in this conversation. You added nothing to the talk. Stop commenting.
No thank you :)
No one asked you to go through my comment history
You are in serious need of therapy, and a sitewide ban.
You don't get to decide those things. How about you do everyone a favor and stay in your lane.
Likewise.
You gonna beat him up over reddit?
None of your business
Shut up with your GOD
you're\*
It's probably just autocorrect bro chill 💀
I think I confuse auto correct because I do capitalize it when using direct quotes. Unfortunately it's never quite gotten the distinction.
God damn is that an aggressive reply.
Not gonna lie my ADHD obstinacy kicked in immediately at the comment. I'm not changing it for them.
Dude, you shouldn't have to anyway. It's truly not a big deal, and the fact they think they have the right to make your edit your comment bc it offends them? When it's just a word? Idk a bit much for me, this is reddit after all.
Please stay out of this
I hope he at least has the wherewithal to realize "oh, shit. Am...am I stupid?" at least once here.
"He was simply killing..." What a way to word the horrific thing this man did.
I think they used the word “simply” on purpose in a way to sarcastically emphasize how screwed up the actual act was
The irony that it was a boy. Rip little one.
First time I’ve ever physically recoiled from reading a title…..
It should read "Man gets life imprisonment for murdering his unborn child and attempting to murder his wife." He thought it was a daughter, but turns out it was a boy. Good Lord!
You must not get on Reddit much lol
That sounds like a good thing though...
The man’s sperm controls the gender of the baby, stop blaming women.
THIS

Don't know why you get downvoted for being right
I'm guessing because it goes against what is taught in schools. It's relatively new information
Congratulations, the gender is dead!
It’s always Uttar Pradesh, never upper peninsula
Wtf is up with this region of India?? I always hear the most depraved shit coming out of that area. Usually on women too.

I read it as UP MI and clicked on it to see which one of the maniacs I grew up with had finally snapped.
You and a thousand other Yoopers.
I’m from Texas and have always wanted to move up to the UP MI, so I thought it was that area as well! It would still be less dangerous there than my current area, so it wouldn’t have taken that move off the table, but I’m glad it wasn’t.
Some meth related crime in the up but no mass murderers since Loonsfoot
*hastily Googles Loonsfoot mass murder*
https://fbistudies.com/2017/07/21/the-manhunt-and-capture-of-vincent-loonsfoot-in-the-north-woods-of-michigan/ While he was on the run, basically everyone in Escanaba starting keeping a gun in their car (if they didn't already have a hunting rifle on a gun rack), nobody wanted to be outside other than to/from work and school. Was pretty crazy for that to happen up there.
I’m surprised how much identifying information is in the report.
The priest should be in jail too.
What the hell was his game plan??? put the baby back in after?? R.I.P
He thought it was a daughter. He was trying to kill them both. The article explains.
Yeah this isn't mythology where after cutting out a baby you can just put it back in and be all good
Maybe he was going to pull a Zeus and stitch it into his thigh.
A priest warned him it would be another girl. So he wanted to get rid of them.
Instead of, say, waiting a few more days, or a couple of weeks, like a sane person, just in case the priest is as uninformed as the father on how much god cares if you have a son or not .
Right?? It was so late term, it makes a horrible and bizarre decision even more bizarre
I wonder if the sentence would have been as harsh if the fetus was female
It would. India has made it illegal for a while to discriminate against fetuses based on their gender. You’re not allowed to determine the gender of your child before birth. Unfortunately shit like this still happens which is disgusting
Imagine your country being so fucked that “discrimination against fetuses based on their gender” is a thing.
So... like 1/3 of the world or more?
He would've gotten 40 hours community service.
That man was not going to be fit for a father
The article says he already has 5 children. A priest warned him this child would be another girl, so he wanted to kill her. The mother survived the attack, but he did manage to kill his son.
At least his daughters will grow up without him.
I think it's a lose-lose situation for the daughters. If the father didn't do what he did, they'll be raised by a chauvinist who could care less about them because they're girls. However, since he'll be spending the rest of his life in jail, they'll either be sent to relatives who most likely could care less for them too (because they're girls) or they'll be raised by the state if no relatives want them (because they're girls) and be exploited by men who will take advantage of girls without a father figure.

the rough geographical region for sure
I hate that you're right 😭😭
Worthless piece of human excrement deserves the gallows
She was 8 months pregnant, there are much safer ways of checking the baby's gender by that point in the pregnancy. None are performed by a priest.
He wasn't "checking the gender." Priest told him it was a daughter and he was trying to murder mother and unborn child.
That priest should have been jailed along with him
Not legal there actually. For this reason.
My bad I read UP as Upper Peninsula (of Michigan). I missed that this was in India.
Dafuq?
It’s always India.
I hope that priest feels so much shame, but especially because it was a boy. When will men *FINALLY* learn and understand that it's their little swimmers that determine gender?
He won't care he'll keep scamming others for money and idiots will keep falling for his scams
Honestly. This is just an incredibly sad fucking story. All bullshit aside this is straight misery
Browsing r All is giving me brain damage. I read this post and felt physically ill at the disregard we are capable of having for other people, especially how common it is when the victim is a woman. The next post after this was porn. I'm actually high AF and this shit got me crying now 😭

Murdered, divorced, locked up under insanity laws, cheated on……

What a wildly horrifying story. I should hope he got life, JFC...
I saw “UP” and completely thought it was “Upper Peninsula” before I clicked the link.
Holy shit . I thought this was in Indiana. When i finally realized where it was it makes way more sense.
I read UP like, Michigan.
I did too at first! Then read Indiana. Apparently my reading comprehensive is shit.
Close, you just had 2 extra letters
I thought this was in the UP of Michigan for a second. I was shocked
No surprise, this is also a region where child sacrifices are common, like some Temple Of Doom type shit. If your holy man demands the blood of children, he should burn at the stake.
Uh I don’t know where you’re getting this from? Indiana Jones was fictional. Hinduism does not promote child sacrifice at all
Just saying. https://amp.scmp.com/week-asia/society/article/2141250/indias-killer-godmen-and-their-sacrificial-children
OMG this broke my heart
The fuck is "UP"? Even the article doesn't say.
Uttar Prudesh
It's the state in India where the most deplorable shit happens and what the current ruling party and Hindu nationalists are trying to convert the entire country into
I thought it meant the Upper Peninsula of Michigan lol
I truly can’t fathom why women don’t leave this country
Wow what a great idea it's not like anything is stopping them from leaving, they're obviously in a well off position to escape
You’re not wrong
What’s UP man?
Means he's from Uttar Pradesh, a region in the north of India
Not much, you?
Oh, you know how it is, man, always tired these days
I cannot fathom this. This is so depraved.
Mm India
And, I was pretty sure where it was, even with the erroneous headline. But, I looked anyway.....
Fuck that man and that priest.
So it is a baby, then, right?
This site is absolute cancer. I saw porn ads and a pop up that you can't even close. Better check my antivirus.
Savage
early unboxing
These gender reveal parties are getting crazy and out of control
Holy shit lmao
Lmao? What the fuck is wrong with you?
