Lester Cains Jr. Must’ve Been Comatose
February 9, 2009 by Jaded

Mansfield, OH–I admit to being a heavy sleeper…but when my children were little, I would wake at the sound of a sniffle. I think some parents are just programmed to do so. Not 28-year-old Lester Cains Jr. Somehow, he slept through his daughter’s naked escape from the home and continued sleeping while neighbors and police pounded on the house. In fact, he didn’t wake up until cops slapped handcuffs on him.
Richland County Sheriff’s Office received a call FridayFriday reviews
afternoon regarding an unattended infant. When officer’s arrived at the home of Lester and his girlfriend, they found an 18-month-old baby girl standing alone in the driveway. She was naked and was pounding the door with her tiny fist, trying to get back inside. The temp that day was in the low 30’s, and as you can see in the picture above, there was still snow on the ground. One officer reported that the child had a bluish tint to her skin.
Watching over the child, a large Rottweiler. The dog made it slightly difficult to rescue the freezing child. Officers were tempted to fire at the dog, but didn’t want to scare the baby. Since the child was standing by the front door, firemen forced entry through a front window, hoping they could grab the child from behind. Finally, an officer threw a snowball and distracted the dog long enough for someone to grab the baby. InsideInside reviews
the home, EMT’s found another naked baby…this one, 7-months-old. She was passed through the open window.
The 18-month-old had an internal temperature of 94 or 95 degrees. An internal body temperature of 95 degrees or lower signals hypothermia. It is believed that the child had been outside in 30-degree weather for 35-40 minutes.
Officers did a search of the small home…which was described as filthy and stinky. They made their presence in the home clear…they pounded on the door, put an ax through a fake window (Plexiglas? cardboard? plywood?), they walked through the house shouting, ‘Sheriff’s office!’ How on earth could anyone sleep through all that shit? Finally, they came to Lester, sound asleep. They yelled at him several times to wake his ass up and got nothing. When he heard the distinct sound of handcuffs, he finally snapped awake. Gets ‘em every time.
His response on the way to the pokey? ‘I’m going to jail because I was sleeping.’ No asshole, you’re going to jail because your daughter was outside, naked, in the freezing cold. You had not one naked daughter, but two! WTF? Neglectful fuck. Authorities don’t believe he was under the influence of anything but, at the jail, he was lethargic and couldn’t remember his children’s names. Ok, so he’s not high or drunk…he’s just stupid? I’ve seen his Myspace…I vote stupid. Lester Cains Jr. is being charged with two counts of child endangerment and one count of dog at large.
This is in his ‘About Me’ section on his Myspace: ‘people consider me an asshole staight forward blunt mutha facko i just got released from the mental ward so im still trying to adjust to the medicine i was also told that i have an explosive rage syndrom.’ Ha! Nice. The children’s mother is defending her man in the comment section here. I do hope she finds her way to the Dreamin’ Demon.
UnamusedCat caught this one in the forums. Thanks UC!
