The Killing of a 2-year-old.

The little girls name was Reina Patterson, and she was killed at the age of 2 this past summer. Reina, her step mother Tammi, step brother Dakota, step sisters Amber and Taylor, and her father, Jarrod Patterson resided in Warsaw, Ohio. The man convicted of 2-year-old Reina's murder was Aaron Holdsworth, 28. Medical personnel told a detective with the Coshocton County Sheriff's Office that Reina had been strangled and received blunt-force trauma to the skull. Holdsworth was her regular baby sitter while her mother, Anita Deeds, was at work, This is because he was her live-in boyfriend. Reina was rushed to the Coshocton Hospital on June 2, 2009, and then transferred to Akron's Childrens Hospital for surgery on June 3rd, and the surgery was unsuccessful. Reina died in the hospital on June 3rd, 2009. The sentence was a minumum of 15 years up to life in prison. Do you think he should have gotten a different sentence? If so, what would you have made his sentence?

  1. Honestly that poor little girl didn't even get a chance at life. I think that they should do life. I realize everyone makes mistakes but that's not something you can take back. why would he want to do that to his OWN daughter?

  5. I know, it's horrible what people do sometimes. Plus, in the article it was talking about how lovable and sweet and happy she was ALL THE TIME. How could you hurt someone like that? Especially at that age.
