Skylar Trigg Boggs and Monica Boggs in happier times
Martinsburg, WV - Monica Wyonna Boggs turned 19 on August 20. Her son, Skylar Trigg Boggs, would have been eight months old on August 27, except now he won’t. On Tuesday, Monica Boggs killed her infant son. First she threw baby Skylar into his crib. Then she threw a baby bottle at him, hitting her baby with a wicked pitch to the face.
At about 9:20 on Tuesday evening, 911 was called from Boggs’ home because Skylar wasn’t breathing. He was taken to the hospital, but rescusitation efforts were unsuccessful. Skylar Trigg Boggs was pronounced dead at 10:09 p.m. He was seven months and three weeks old.
Initially, Monica Boggs said that Skylar hadn’t been feeling well for a few days. She told investigators that she had put the baby into his crib about 6:00 Tuesday evening and that she had checked on him after that and he had seemed fine until the 9:20 check. She said that family members had tried CPR on Skylar, but it wasn’t working, so she called 911.
Problem with Monica’s story was the dark, fresh bruise above Skylar’s left eye. Investigators called bullshit and told Monica that CPR does not cause facial bruising. After some questioning on Wednesday and Thursday, Monica Boggs caved and confessed to losing her temper. She’d thrown Skylar into his crib with enough force to bounce his head off the back of the crib. Then she grabbed his baby bottle and hurled it into the crib at her son, hitting him hard in the face.
Monica’s Myspace page is a veritable treasure trove of idiocy. Her header says “Muh 2 most important boiz in dis world is muh son Skylar Trigg n muh fiancee Rob.” She appears to spill her life story in a few poorly written paragraphs. I can’t tell whether Rob was living with Monica - she appeared to be living with family. So where was Rob while Skylar was dying? Where was anyone? Was nobody in the house aware that Monica was prone to explosive fits of anger?
Monica Boggs is charged with the murder of a child by a parent and child abuse resulting in injury. She is being held without bond at the Eastern Regional Jail.

BITCH. She needs to be sterilized. No more sweet little babies for her!

And I am not mathematical genius, but the tickers on her page have her at “13 months 3 weeks since me n rob startin datin” (sic). That means he hooked up with her when she was 6 months pregnant. That’s just…ew.

Aug 22, 2008 at 1:11 pm -What a worthless sack of shit. I have two kids; I know they can be trying at times. Babies who won’t stop fussing are quite irritating, but if you’re a human being, you think “Why is the poor baby fussy? What can I do to help? Is something wrong; should I call the doctor?” Never would it cross my mind to body slam my infant or throw something at him. Jesus. There have been times when I’ve reached my limit and have needed to put him in another room to let him howl while I take a moment to regroup. Because that is what any normal, rational parent would do. Blah. People like this retarded bitch should be forcibly sterlized. Her MySpace page made my eyes bleed.
At any rate, I guess I’ve just discovered another perk of breastfeeding. No need to worry about those pesky bottles to use as projectiles when “da babi” is actin’ up.

Anybody that spells my “muh” back “bacc” and several other 3rd grade errors can’t posibly take care of an infant. I would drop her in the mens gen pop for a day or to but that would be cruel and unusual punishment to the male inmates. Uhhg she’s a retina breaker.

Probably one of those teens we always see. Anyhow, someone was dumb and graduated this bitch out of high school, must have not been a written or verbal test I suppose.
Rest in peace baby boy… I hope your mom gets ass raped by a broom in the slammer for being such a fucking cunt. I am not going to even bother sending her an e-mail even though I want to tell her off myself.

Aug 22, 2008 at 9:34 pm -NOT defending her at all, dont take it that way….but I don’t see the intent behind this. It seems like it would be relatively impossible to kill a 7 month old by throwing him hard onto a mattress and then hitting him in the face with a most likely plastic bottle
I am curious what the actual cause of death turns out to be, I dont think those 2 actions would have done it.
Im sure she was shocked as shit he died from it………..Not that she isnt an idiot and abusive mom who should NEVER have had a child, but still seems odd compared to some of the horrors of abuse kids survive…
Why does she say “Muh” so much?? that is one of the worst Myspace pages I have yet to see, she seems sub-normal (obviously)
Oh, west virginia. that explains a lot

I just dont get it… kids don’t die from crying, and sometimes even though it may be hard, it is best just to get away for a min. Especially if your whore ass doesnt have a man to take over for a few.

Aug 22, 2008 at 10:44 pm -Just today, I was in the bathroom getting dressed when all of a sudden I heard a splash. My 19 month old son has just thrown my one hundred dollar Coach wallet, containing all of my credit cards, checks, etc., into the toilet. I scooped it out and in shock shrieked, “What are you doing? No, Evan, NO!” The look on his face was the most heartbroken look I have ever seen. His lip pushed out and he began to bawl. I scooped him up, hugged him, ad immediatley scolded myself for getting loud with him.
The point of this story is, I can never imagine physically hurting my child. Ever. I am a stay at home mom of two children: a smart mouthed eight year old girl, and a rowdy 19 month old son. Sadly, the toilet story is only one of many experiences that I have in a week with my children. NEVER, EVER has it crossed my mind to hurt my child. I read these stories and my heart aches. Seeing this beautiful baby boy, who probably did nothing more than cry because his fat, illiterate skank of a mother was probably paying him no attention whatsoever. It makes me so disgusted with this world that we live in. If you can’t handle a baby, KEEP YOUR DAMN LEGS CLOSED. If you have one anyways, give them to someone who will love them and won’t freaking kill them. It’s disgusting.

* just curious how did this manage to get back to the top of the main page here…. was there an update from yesterday?
this poor baby prob cried too much cutting teeth and she was missing her nanny 911 show - that blog thing states, sklar was most important besides rob …. what a fucking retard.
This child (the mom) needed a timeout - she probably abused her help and supporters in her family… not coming home on time always running around with rob. I will be happy she is locked up hope she don’t get pregos by the prison guards… and she don’t get released until after menopause… keep her away from the disabled also !!!

Aug 23, 2008 at 4:58 am -I found it odd that she labeled photos “skylar cryin” and “skylar bein crabby” etc. and put them up. Not even a smiley baby in any of them. “skylar bein himself” is just the crying baby from a minute before with a pacifier in his mouth. Even when he’s being held, he doesn’t look happy.
Hope it was just his mood the day they took pictures, but I suspect he liked to be held and was fussy a bit. Too much for her.

Aug 23, 2008 at 8:49 am -Horrible. Just horrible.
I hate people like this. She had such a beautiful gift and she treated him like trash. The idiot didn’t deserve him. Stories like this hit a raw nerve with me. It just sickens and even angers me how these idiots pop out babies with such ease while people who desperately want a child can’t conceive or carry to term.
Right now, my husband and I would give anything to be dealing with the demands of a crying baby. We go to see our son every day in the intensive care unit just so we can hold him for a half an hour. (I’m one of those women who, for some unknown reason, can’t carry to term. My beautiful son was born 2 1/2 months early and needs to be in an incubator for now.) Every day, we come back home without our darling. We would love to be woken up at 2am to feed, change and/or comfort him. But instead, we have to wake up to silence and call to check on our son while this rotten, worthless, stupid bitch kills hers! It’s not fair. But, as I’m always told, life’s not fair. This tragic story, and so many others like it, are evidence of that.

Wondering if this mean looking bitch threw him there b4 taking the crabby pic???

Aug 23, 2008 at 9:51 am -I just registered for your site, but I have been visiting the site for months. I just wanted to tell everyone here that what you guys do is amazing. I love the fact that you stand up for the victims. These are victims that otherwise wouldn’t have a voice.
This story struck me, mainly because I have an 8 month old nephew. I could not imagine ever harming him. I work at an emergency youth shelter….and you would not believe the cases we get sometimes. We get children that are newborns up to 18 years old. There are many, many times that we get parents in there who simply do not care about what happens to their child. These are the type of parents that would have long ago abandoned their child, if they were not receiving a welfare check. It kills me, because I cannot imagine how messed up a person has to be to harm a child. Many times, we get abused infants. There have been many cases where the parent abused the child, for no other reason than the child “was crying and wouldn’t stop.” Yes, I have actually heard that excuse. Any normal person knows the best way to get a child to stop crying or fussing is to comfort the child….not to sling the child into it’s bed, then throw a bottle in it’s face. I have actually had one mother use the excuse that the reason why she broke her 10-month old daughter’s arm, then left the child alone for 5 and a half hours was “the baby kept waking up and crying….and I was trying to spend time with my boyfriend.” I just wanted to slap her in the mouth. The saddest part was that after regaining custody of the child, within three months, the child was back in our care at the shelter. Sometimes, I wonder if I can keep doing this job. People say that you shouldn’t take your job home with you…..but I lie awake sometimes, thinking about the children that I take care of. The only thing that keeps me going is knowing that I may be the only person to ever comfort and show kindness to some of these children.
I hate it when we recieve a child that has been abandoned or abused. I equally hate it when we recieve a child that is already involved with juvenile deliquent services at a young age. We have gotten 10, 11, and 12 year olds that are accused of sex crimes, assault, robbery….you name it, they’ve done it. It occurs to me that, obviously, there is something missing in their home lives. I can only hope that someone reaches them before it’s too late.
I have a sister who cannot have children. It kills me to see her cry, because she will never be able to have the best parts of her husband and herself. It kills me even more to see people who don’t deserve to know the miracle of creating a beautiful child, abuse and hurt their children. That’s why I am so grateful to people like you guys. You call attention to the vile, evil people of this world and you give innocent victims a voice. Thank you.

Aug 23, 2008 at 10:05 am -I’m so sorry, Senna. :o( I hope your sweetheart will be home with you soon, safe and healthy.
This story is still breaking my heart. That little boy was so beautiful, and the poor sweetie looked so unhappy in all of those pictures. My daughter was a high-needs infant, and it could be very trying at times, but my God…ask for help if you need it. Take a break! Don’t hurt your baby!! Ugh. Of course, who knows if he was even high-needs…chances are that this piss-poor excuse for a “mother” was probably abusing him from the very beginning.
My son is 6 months old now, and I just can’t even IMAGINE how someone could hurt a little one like that. Ugh. I wish I could find this useless bitch and just beat the living shit out of her and forcibly tie her tubes.

smile4me22
Aug 23, 2008 at 2:41 pm -It is so easy to quickly judge or assume things when you hear of a tragedy. The young man that was her fiancee had absolutely NO IDEA what she was doing or that she would ever do anything like this. No one in her family did. She was a temperamental, spoiled, ignorant child who unfortunately gave birth. I don’t know what was running through her mind as she did this to her child. I don’ t know what runs through anyone’s mind. But what I do know is that God will punish her in what ever way He sees fit. The fiance was caught up in a family that was racist and ignorant. He loved that baby dearly and blames himself for not being able to stop what happened. He had no control nor was he there when it occurred.
As I said before, people want to jump to conclusions and cast judgment before they know the facts. Unless you were there, know the family personally or apart of the case—you probably don’t know anything. Other then what you read, which is never the full story.

Aug 23, 2008 at 5:47 pm -I can tell you that I have had many, many nights of crying over not being able to calm my baby down. Babies cry. They are babies! I’ve had nights when I slept 2 hours (not all together) and then had to go to work the next morning and do the whole thing again. Lord knows I’m not mother of the year. I believe Cindy Anthony said that would soon be Casey’s title. But, as parents we get by. Children do not die of crying in their crib they do die of being thrown up against a wall! The sad thing is she will probably be out in no time and pregnant again.
