Las Vegas, NevadaRaven Gibbons used to have a 5-year-old daughter named D’Amber Myles. D’Amber suffered from cerebral palsy, had the mental capacity of a 2-year-old child, and was only able to use her right arm. Surely, D’Amber required almost constant supervision and care. You certainly wouldn’t want to leave a special needs child alone in the bathtub, not even for a couple of minutes, right? Didn’t seem to bother Raven any to just leave the kid sitting in the tub…she had more important things to do! Like watch TV and stuff. D’Amber couldn’t even hold her head up on her own, and Raven just left her there in the tub, walked out of the bathroom, and shut the door.

When police and paramedics responded, Raven told them she had only left D’Amber alone for about 10 minutes. Which, in all reality, is about 9 minutes and 50 seconds too long. D’Amber drowned. “She could not boost herself out by herself,” police spokeswoman Barbara Morgan said. “Her mom had her on her back haunches, and she kind of slumped forward. That’s how her body shape was; she couldn’t hold her head up.” Raven wasn’t even aware that her child was drowning behind the closed bathroom door…she didn’t realize that anything was wrong until she noticed water seeping out from underneath the door. Raven’s claims just weren’t adding up, though. Authorities put Raven’s claim of ‘10 minutes’ to the test and found that it took at least 25 minutes for the tub to overflow. Bitch couldn’t even check on the kid during commercials?

Raven Gibbons, 23, was arrested a couple of days after the drowning and charged with second-degree murder and child neglect with substantial bodily harm. She is being held without bond.

    how does anyone leave a 5 year old, let alone a disabled one in the tub alone and close the door? I still leave the door open with my 8 year old in the tub. Bet this was intentional

    This has “intentional” written all over it. Kids have this knack of interfering with life’s most important things. Like gettin your haierrr did… and watching soap operas… and oh yeah, polishing off an entire box of Krispy Kreme donuts in a sitting. It takes a very special type of love and patience to have a disabled child. To be honest, I am surprised she lived til 5. I am not sure who would have sex with that drooling sea cow anyway, but it’s terribly unfortunate. R.I.P. D’Amber, hopefully the next life treats you better than this one.

    That face of that woman says that she is either high or really stupid.

    Unfortunately, I have to agree with the folks who think this was intentional. She’s certainly “crafting” her story to lessen the appearance of guilt.

    If this had been the first week she’d cared for this child, I might buy that none of this was a deliberate act, but instead careless negligence. Leaving a child who is functionally a quadriplegic alone in a bathtub with running water for 20 minutes is the same as giving a healthy child a plugged in toaster to play with.

    First thing I thought of when I saw this woman was the word “crack head”. After a little googling I found this tidbit from the march of dimes website.

    Later in pregnancy, it may trigger preterm labor (labor that occurs before 37 completed weeks of pregnancy) or cause the baby to grow poorly. As a result, cocaine-exposed babies are more likely than unexposed babies to be born prematurely and with low birthweight (less than 5½ pounds). Premature and low-birthweight babies are at increased risk of health problems during the newborn period, lasting disabilities such as mental retardation and cerebral palsy, and even death. Cocaine-exposed babies also tend to have smaller heads, which generally reflect smaller brains (8).

    They have information on what a lot of drugs can do to a developing baby.

    Raven wasn’t even aware that her child was drowning behind the closed bathroom door…she didn’t realize that anything was wrong until she noticed water seeping out from underneath the door.

    She left her disabled child alone, with the water running, behind a closed door? For long enough that the water flooded the bathroom and came out under the door?!? This was intentional, to be sure. I hope this “drooling sea cow” (dead on, Jewelz) finds prison more convenient than caring for a child with special needs…

    Who is Steve Wilkos? I don’t see him listed as being part of the staff?

    My children are all grown and very mature, could be because, we never left them in a bathtub alone, until they were, mmmm, about 6 years old!! Had we given birth to a child with disabilities, never, and we would’ve had the good sense to seek help (from professionals) if we knew we couldn’t handle the child in a safe way!
    Oh! Do you have children?

    Are you for real?
    the woman is getting what she deserves. if you can’t be bothered to watch your own child in the bathtub, particularly a child that is special needs. You don’t deserve any sympathy when your child dies while in your care. I don’t give a flying fuck what her problem is..
    SHE KNOWINGLY LEFT A SPECIAL NEEDS CHILD ALONE IN A BATHTUB FULL OF WATER. so you get off your high horse and come to terms with the idea that every action has consequences and neither you, nor her are above facing those consequences.
    people like you, piss me off. you come on the forum and defend a waste of air piece of crap like her, for a crime she committed KNOWINGLY…

    3:26 am on July 6th, 2009

    I’m going to speak my head to you all. I am D’Amber’s auntie and my family and I are very saddend behind this whole thing. D’Amber was a special needs child but also a happy kid she didn’t know that she wasn’t limited she just enjoyed life. She enjoye when we played with her, rolled her in her wheel chair and everything. And I’ve been knowing Raven since before she was pregnant. Raven was a good mother. Her children always had what they needed a house, toys, both parents and love. I feel for myself that It was probably hard for her to look at her child’s limited possibilities while every one else’s child is free to run around and D’Ambie was bound to a wheel chair and could sit up, eat, walk, say “I love you Mommy.” I can say that I loved D’Ambie and I can’t believe that she did this to her. Everytime I seen Ambie I was hurt inside because I felt that she didn’t deserve to be in that kind of physical disability but I over looked it and thought that was just the way the cookie crumbled. At first when this happened I was pissed at raven and I knew that she had to do it deliberately, not because she didn’t love her but probably because she had just got overwhelmed, frustrated, confused and she felt sorryfor her baby. I think of all the things that might have been going through her mind. And we will never know, But I do feel sorry for her she has to deal with the guilt sorrow and pain. I know she regrets doing what she did and she’s all alone because everyone wants to judge her and bad mouth her. I’m no kin to raven my brother is D’Amber’s father and he is just devistated. I can’t imagine what he is going through in his head because his family was his whole way of living. And what tops it all off is that raven is in jail that’s his partner they should be able to share there grief together and now he is all alone. The mother of his kids is in jail for murdering one of them. I don’t know what raven is thinking But i know she’s paying for what she did and it sucks you know becaue 2 perfectly good lives have been taken from my family’s life. This is a really horrible situation. So feel some sympathy and stop judging Regardless of all good people do wrong everyday some are simply not strog enough to handle what God throws at us. D’Amber is in a better place now where she doesn’t have to worry about inabilities and stupid stuff that goes on here. I bet she forgives her mom. And you know what I forgive her too. So if you don’t know her then don’t judge her.

    Moral relativism at its best right there.

    Would you be willing to comment on past and present drug use?

    Was your brother married to her, or at least living with her? How often did he see her?

    I won’t bother attacking your view on the situation, since it is a common thread for the vast majority of these cases. Basically, you are an enabler. Her “reasons” aren’t worth two dead flies.

    MoneyMay,
    I am sorry your family went through this horrible, saddened experience with someone you loved, your niece. You are absolutely right that people should not judge you or your family if they don’t know them, we on demon dreamin just react to certain cases and offer our opinions, because we can’t imagine hurting a child, let alone a helpless sick child with special needs. They lash out at everyone, but truly to you and your whole family my prayers are with you, try to stay strong. about 4 years ago, my first cousin, now he is 28 years old murdered, strangled and buried a pregnant girl and he was the dad, how about that one…. I come from a very very prominent family and well known… Why did this happen? only my cousin, the killer, who I knew my whole life, and loved him and would have never never never imagined he would have done such, but it does and did happen and there is not one day that i don’t think of the poor girl and her family what they go through each day and how my poor aunt and uncle have to face with their only son in prison for life, which he should be for what he did but just to let you know sorry to you and your family and try to just hang in there…
    Best to you

    MoneyMay- I do feel bad for you and your family, you had no control over what happened, however Raven did. I feel no sympathy for her. I’m sure that having a disabled child is overwhelming, she should have asked for help. I can’t imagine the terror that D’Amber felt as she tried to keep her head above the water.

So if you don’t know her then don’t judge her.”

    Nope, not feeling any sympathy. The mother and child relationship is the most sacred one in the world. Anyone who would knowingly kill their child is, in my opinion, inhuman. Undeserving of forgiveness. Maybe you believe in God. And maybe your God would allow this to happen and then forgive it. I’m not buying it. I don’t need to forgive anyone, least of all this pathetic excuse for a mother, and neither would any jury in their right mind. Guess what people, parenthood is hard. Mothers who kill their children are the scum of the earth. I hope they throw the book at your friend. And why do all you members of the God Squad always nod your head knowingly and let us all know that the victims of these horrible crimes are “in a better place”? Was D’Amber given a choice? “Yeah mom, send me off to a better place.” No, she wasn’t given a choice, and now she’s dead because her mother, unlike so many loving families who have disabled children, couldn’t hack it. Or couldn’t bring herself to love a child who wasn’t exactly what she wanted.

    Demonicpower and MoneyMay you both need a reality check! This bitch let her handicapped child drown and for that she deserves the death penalty.

    No need for you to come on here with your bullshit of what a great mom Raven was because a great mother lets her child live.

    So STFU!!!!

    10:07 am on July 6th, 2009

    Demonic you make me LOL. You’re either a troll or an idiot. Maybe an idiot troll. As for what happened, I see 2 possibilities. The first being that she was overwhelmed and wanted some time to herself. She lost track of time, her child drowned. It’s hard enough taking care of a healthy child sometimes, a disabled one is even harder. I’m sure this is what her lawyer will say. The other is that she couldn’t deal with taking care of her anymore. Maybe she convinced herself that she was doing her daughter a favor by saving her years of suffering. Mothers have convinced themselves of that before. Either way, she is responsible for the death of her child.

    All of you idiots who have everything bad to say about Raven. You say that she has no right to judge rather her child should live or die are hipocrits because you convict her in the same way as she convicted her child’s life. I don’t want to hear it. And mo matter what you say demonicpower and Uvgottabekidden your name sums it all up. I’m not an enabler I just can feel what the people who are close to me feeling. I can’t stand people who all ways have something to say. So what I believe in God and so what I believe in forgiveness, ampathy and sympathy. Maybe you should try IITTT. I guarantee life would be much Better. I have kids and hell yess they get on my last nerve some times and No I would never in my right mind kill them or let anything bad happen but some people are just weak and feel like they have no other options so If you can’t understand that then just piss off and Leave me the FUCKKKK ALONE>>>>>>>>>>

    A very simple solution.. stop coming back to the site. If you don’t like what is being said about the mother of this child, then stop coming back here and defending her. The people on this site have a right to state their perspective/opinions just as much as you do. If it upsets you so much, STOP READING IT!!…

    I’m sorry for you and your brother MoneyMay, but your out of your fucking mind if you think I’m gonna be like “Oh she was stressed out, its ok she let her daughter drown in the tub!” I don’t remember deciding to let Raven’s life slip away while I was busy feeling sorry for myself or deciding her life wasn’t worth living, so I’m not seeing how we are judging her the way she judged her daughter. How in the hell do you call some one a good mother that just got charged with murdering her 5 year old special needs child! Seriously, you need to stop drinking that womans Kool Aid and start drinking some reality. Just as a warning, the jury will be full of people that don’t know Raven, and they are certainly going to judge her as well.

    This is a description of what it felt like to almost drown by a man that injured his neck diving off of a diving board. He was rescued but had lost consciousness before they got him out.

    It is sheer panic when you can’t get up for air. At some point, your “brain” feels hot (best that I can describe it) and your body reflexively takes the water into your lungs, and your airways BURN.

    I read about another the reaction that about half of drowning victims suffer, its called laryngospasm. In these cases the airway seals shut and the victim is asphyxiated by the closed airway. It feels like choking, and anyone that has choked on a piece of food knows that choking blows.

    This is what that woman did to that little girl and your upset that we are talking about her?! I think you need to evaluate your outlook on this situation.

    You all are right, D’Amber is in a much better place!!

    To MoneyMay,
    You have a right to feel how you feel and so do others. Because of your relation to the family it hits home more than it has others but reality is this situation just does not look right. Based off of the facts, the daughter was neglected wether just on that day or on previous occasions, we do not know. However, on this occasion something horrible resulted from Raven’s actions, something that can not be taken back. Also I would to say to all those using foul language to describe a person who has a name you should as Michael Jackson said, “look at the man in the mirror”. This is a tragedy, and I would like to know just who MoneyMay is, because it sounds as if she is Kin to Raven and not the father as she claims to be.

    To Uvgottabkiddin: You should never say never, because things happen that are sometimes never planed. Do not think you are more than human!

    Get a life

    You must be high. To even begin to believe that this is a accident or anything short of Neglect at it’s worse.
    I can assure you when my children were this age both the actual age and this little girls mental age I would never have Dreamed of allowing them to sit in a tub of water with the door shut and i not inside the room with them.

    If you for one second thing that this woman does not deserve everything said here than dear i am Praying to God you have no kids.

    As far as where mine are lets see the two daughters are with their own children my grand kids who are well cared for and loved.
    My 21 year old should be coming through the door any second from College and my 14 year old is playing on his computer sitting right here next to me. he actually read that comment you made and also things you are a well a tad Off your rocker.

    See there is a HUGE issue with Parents like this one They seem to forget that when they lay their funky butts down and have unprotected sex That there May be a baby made and they may end up with a Lifetime Job of being a parent. A job that is Not easily handled by self centered dimwits like this person seen in this article.

    May her baby rest in peace and never know any more pain or neglect safe in the hands of God.

    All you guys need to get a life. Yes she did wrong but who are you to judge? Were any of you guys there? No i don’t think so. we all know the media say anything they think they can say an 9 time out of ten half the shit is wrong. I sit hear and read all this shit about Raven an can’t believe the idiots that sit here an say all the crap thats being said. We really don’t know if she close the door do we? but that’s what the media is saying. Do we really know if she told them she left the bathroom for 10min? No we don’t. Have anybody thought maybe something was wrong with one of the other kids and her attention was on one of them an that’s what distrected her. I think everybody always want to look on the negative side of things. Think positive sometimes and maybe you will have a better life. Do i have kids yes i have a 14yr old whom i love to death an will do anything in my power to keep her safe. People god says thou should not judge and what you are doing is judging her. Yes i am Raven cousin.

    an 9 time out of ten half the shit is wrong

    Ok, I can do this. 9 out of 10..that’s 90%. half of 90% is 45%. which means that 1 out of 10 is 10%. Then half of that is 5%. Which when you add those two together you get 50%. Which means that the….man on the grassy knoll was John Wilkes Booth faking the moon landing with the loch ness monster and sasquatch getting busy with the money shot!

    Now, we covered where the news comes from in a previous comment and we all know it isn’t the news fairy “do we”? Now, what we do know is that many news outlets are very touchy about showing fake news as that can get a little legally murky. So somewhere there is a document or source that has proven to them that this is a reliable story. I am going to go out on a limb and say that it is those pesky public records that get created when the police get involved.

    Such as that darn arrest report…The arrest report for 23-year-old Raven Gibbons states that her daughter was found June 30 face-down in the bathtub, the water overflowing into the hallway, at her apartment on Craig Road at Las Vegas Boulevard North.
    Gibbons told police she placed the girl in the bathtub facing away from the shower head, which was left running when Gibbons closed the door and went to watch television in another room, according to the report.

    Damn, she must have been coerced by that pesky news fairy to say all those things just so the news would be able to push a story that was correct. Those darn newscasters……

    Think positive sometimes and maybe you will have a better life.

    Now tell me what is the positive side of a little girl slowly drowning in a bathtub, without having the power to even raise her nose up a little bit for those last 2 seconds of life. Imagine being paralyzed and sitting in a pool of water as it slowly filled up around you. Would your last thoughts be spinning a positive side to it?

    Shut up already.. I don’t give a fat rat ass if you are her cousin and no I wasn’t there, but I didn’t need to be there to know that she is a worthless piece of cow patty.
    She ALLOWED her child to drown and there is NO FUCKINTG EXCUSE THAT WILL EVER, EVER CHANGE MY MIND.. THAT BABY COULD NOT HOLD HER HEAD UP!! WHAT FUCKING PART OF THAT DO YOU NOT UNDERSTAND?

    I think everybody always want to look on the negative side of things.

    “The negative side of things”? A HELPLESS CHILD DIED UNDER HER SUPERVISION. There IS no upside to this story, dumb shit. And, by suggesting there is, you are disrespecting the very life and death of D’Amber.

    You know, this is, oh, maybe the 300th time I’ve read the comments section to a story, only to see someone come in and try to defend the perp. I don’t know why it’s getting under my skin so much this time. Maybe it’s because, worst case scenario, mom purposely and selfishly left that child alone with the hope that she world drown and, best case scenario, mom was so fucking STUPID, it’s amazing poor D’Amber lived as long as she did. Either way, there’s absolutely no justification to be made, here.

    Oh, and go read the Bible, you ignorant fucking Christian. Nothing irks me more than people who spout about their religion when they don’t even know what they’re talking about. Here, I’ll point you to a few verses of interest:

    We can know or identify (judge) whether a person is godly or not (their character) by their fruit (words and actions) which we can identify/judge as good or bad – (Matthew 7:15-20, Matthew 12:33, Luke 6:43)
    We can judge what is right or wrong – Luke 12:57
    We can identify when a Christian has sinned against us and refute/rebuke them for it – (Matthew 18:15-17)
    We can assess each other’s faithfulness to the Lord – (Acts 16:15)
    We are to admonish and warn (3560) one another – (Romans 15:14)
    We can identify, judge (2919), and reprove (1651) those in the church as fornicators (4205), covetous (4123, those greedy to gain, eager to have more, esp. of belongings of other persons), idolators (1496, used of any one, even Christian, who participates in any way in the worship of the heathen), railers (3060), drunkards (3183), and/or extortioners (727) – we cannot fellowship with such people, but must excommunicate them – (1 Corinthians 5:9-13, Ephesians 5:3-7,10-11)
    We are to identify and not fellowship with those who do not obey the Word of God, but to admonish (3560) them – (2 Thessalonians 3:14-15, Romans 16:17)

    Qouting Michael Jackson now? What was MJ thinking when he was looking in the mirror?

    This worthless piece of “human trash” is out on bail and her daughter is dead….where’s the sense in that? I would never leave my child alone in the shower for “10 mins or 10 secs” especially if my child is disabled. The quote unquote family members of Raven and or the Baby Daddy should get a fuckin reality check and realize this fat lazy greedy and money hungry bitch only had her children as a way to not have to work…..she’s purposely killed and innocent child and I wish the DA would get off their ass and do the right thing and re-file the true charges “1st degree Murder” on this Oragutan looking bitch. Anyone that makes excuse for her should stand trial with her for aiding and abetting because they obviously knew beforehand that D’Amber was being abused and did NOTHING!!!!

    charged with second-degree murder and child neglect with substantial bodily harm

    She sure is. Evidently the DA don’t have all their facts right if they gave her a bail you fucking idiot. Raven has never abused her children. Money hungry, i like to know where your getting those facts from.

    Getalife, i get my facts from LVMPD obviously there is a lot they can’t divulge to the public yet but the police ARE pushing to have the charges upgraded……..BTW if you and your family would’ve taken this approach in defending D’Amber this thread wouldn’t have ever been made, so apparently you and yours need to getalife, you defend Bullwinkle the Moose but couldn’t defend the poor lil baby….If i see her on the street I’ll do would should’ve been done a long time ago.
