Seems dad JULIAN THOMSON was "frustrated" because his infant daughter was crying. So he shook her violently, hitting her head, and then threw her. She died of severe head injuries. For all this, he gets five freaking years in jail....
For all the pro-life BS, in reality we treat the lives of babies as cheap. Especially when the father is the perp.

Red Deer father sentenced in death of his infant daughter
Published Tuesday, Nov. 6, 2012 11:35AM MST
A Red Deer man has been sentenced, for his involvement in the death of his four-month-old daughter last year.
On Tuesday, Julian Thomson, 22, was sentenced to five years in prison for killing his baby daughter.
The judge overseeing the case, Court of Queen’s Bench Justice Earl Wilson, cried when he read his sentence in the Red Deer courtroom, and said it was up to the courts to stand up for the young victim.
“A child should look to their parents for love, safety and protection. To [whom] does a child turn to if the parent is responsible for the crime? It is the court that must speak for Zaria,” Justice Wilson said.
Zaria McCall, who was born on July 27, 2011, succumbed to severe head injuries at the Stollery Children’s Hospital on November 26, 2011.
She died hours after her father, Thomson, shook her violently, and she hit her head on her exersaucer, before he threw her to the floor, where she hit her head.
Court heard Thomson told a psychiatrist he was frustrated, angry and felt helpless, and that he shook the baby because she was crying.
Thomson turned himself in to RCMP on December 1 – and pleaded guilty to manslaughter although he was initially charged with second degree murder. .
