For those who missed it, the mother and stepfather were both responsible for this tragedy.

they should BOTH get the chair. Him for doing it, and her for allowing it

eye for an eye i say.

sad history

I'm not sure why we waste time with these people

The mother has now admitting torturing and killing the kid with her husband. Gruesome details below. It is hard to believe how someone can be so messed up in the head that they could do this to a child.

A woman believed to be the mother of a 2-year-old whose body was found in Galveston Bay told police she and the girl’s stepfather beat and tortured the child to death, court documents show.

The details, in a statement Kimberly Dawn Trenor gave to police, paint a chilling picture of the last days of the girl investigators called “Baby Grace” as they worked for weeks to learn her identity.

Investigators are awaiting DNA test results but said Monday they are “fairly confident” that the body a fisherman found in a plastic box Oct. 29 is that of Riley Ann Sawyers. Trenor, 19, and her husband, Royce Clyde Zeigler II, were in custody on charges of hurting the girl.

“It was a few weeks ago I held up this little shoe and asked, ’Who is Baby Grace? Who does this belong to?”’ sheriff’s Maj. Ray Tuttoilmondo said at a news conference. “We’re now fairly confident we know the answer to that.”

An autopsy revealed three skull fractures, but the cause of death has not been determined.

Tuttoilmondo said he could not discuss details of the little girl’s death, but Trenor said in her police statement, first reported by Houston television station KTRK, that she and Zeigler, 24, killed her July 24.


The girl was beaten with leather belts, had her head held underwater in a bathtub and then was thrown across a room, her head slamming into a tile floor, Trenor said in the document. She said they kept the body in a storage shed for one to two months before they put it in a plastic bin and dumped it into Galveston Bay.

Trenor’s attorney, Tom Stickler, said she has cooperated with authorities. He declined to comment about her statement to investigators.

'No doubt' on ID
“But from what she said, there is no doubt that the girl found is Riley Sawyers,” Stickler said.

Trenor and Zeigler were arrested early Saturday and charged with injury to a child and tampering with evidence, Tuttoilmondo said. Bail was set at $350,000 each. The couple’s next court appearance was expected to be scheduled on Tuesday.

Wendell Odom, Zeigler’s attorney, declined to comment on the case except to say Zeigler grew up in Spring, about 75 miles north of Galveston, and works as an instrument technician in the oil industry.

Trenor and Zeigler met a couple of years ago playing an online game, World of Warcraft, and she moved with her daughter from suburban Cleveland to Spring in June, Stickler said.

Riley’s paternal grandmother, Sheryl Sawyers, hadn’t seen her granddaughter in months when she saw a police sketch of “Baby Grace.” Thinking it might be Riley, she called authorities in Texas.

'Resting peacefully'
In Mentor, Ohio, on Monday, Sawyers wiped away tears at a news conference and held up the Elmo doll she had already bought Riley for Christmas.

“It’s hard to think that I’ll never see her again,” she said.

The Sawyers family’s attorney, Laura DePledge, said they take comfort in knowing that the girl is “resting peacefully and is no longer subject to abuse.”

DePledge said Trenor and Sawyers’ son, Robert Sawyers, also of Mentor, had been high school sweethearts. Sheryl Sawyers said she has not seen Riley since the girl and Trenor moved to Texas.

Robert Sawyers, who works in an auto-parts store, was never married to Trenor but lived with her and their daughter in his parents’ home for about two years. He and Trenor split up after March 31, when he was charged with domestic violence against her.

DePledge said there was insufficient evidence to support the charge, which was reduced to disorderly conduct. Robert Sawyers is now married and has a 3-month-old son.

Riley “had a very big imagination for such a little girl,” he said of his daughter. “She could play with anything and have fun with it.”

Tuttoilmondo said Trenor had told relatives that someone claiming to be a social worker from Ohio took the girl in July.

Tuttoilmondo said investigators became emotionally involved in determining the little girl’s identity.

“Any way you look at it, we carry a piece of her with us and will always carry a little piece of her with us,” he said. “She’s still our little girl.”

I couldn't even look at it. The thread title pissed me off bad enough. That fucker must be stoned to death.

The girl was beaten with leather belts, had her head held underwater in a bathtub and then was thrown across a room, her head slamming into a tile floor, the mother said in the document. She said they kept the body in a storage shed for one to two months before they put it in a plastic bin and dumped it into Galveston Bay.


That is so fucked up.

I hope they get the worst punishment there is.

I remember when my kids were that age, it was easy to understand how a weak person might lose it.

I hate to diss my own people but, does this REALLY surprise you coming from texas? Seems like these things happen all the time in texas. Very sad indeed tho

very cute girl, sometimes I really want to support the death penalty.

I say cut his balls off and spread some salt on them as they bleed.
the chair or any death penalty is to easy.
Make him suffer big time.
As for the mother, cut her breast off without anesthesia so she feels the pain and then pour acid on the wounds as she bleeds.
Make her suffer and feel the pain.
Maybe I am cruel but no way this girl deserved what these two asses did to her.
May she RIP

damn... what's wrong with people...???

they are fucking crazy and bitch. what kind of thinking they have.
she's a lovely little girl.

man, if anybody did that kind of shit to either of my nieces, or my nephews i'd flip a lid and murder them, i don't give a rats ass if i spent the rest of my life in prison, knowing that the fuckheads that were so fucked in the head did something like that to my nieces/nephews are no longer around to hurt anyone else, would make me happy... even if it was my own family member...

Fucked up world...

He'll get his.. they don't take kindly to child abusers in prison.

Sad news and cute girl, indeed.


By the way, I do not see anyone talking about the religion or country of that fucked up father ..

If same this was happened in somewhere in Iran, every one would be bashing the country, its culture and religion.

What a bunch of hypocrites living out there .. including news agencies.

Both of them, with no hoods.. and make sure the stones are fucking small so that it will take a ... long..... time....

That is so horrible, they deserve to die a slow tortured death.

there's a story like this every day. i hate to say it, but why bother posting a whole thread about it? i don';t want to hear about shit like this anymore. the world is fucked, and people are twisted fucked up wrecks, we should all have realized this by now. i don't need any more reminders that people are untrustworthy scheming sacks of shit, it just makes me more misanthropic than before each and every time i see it...

why does it always seem that there is a stepfather/stepmother involved in shit like this....this fucker should be handed over to the girls real father to get what he deserves

Trenor and Zeigler met a couple of years ago playing an online game, World of Warcraft, and she moved with her daughter from suburban Cleveland to Spring in June, Stickler said.


jeez....

I am sure the real father had many opportunities to see what was going on or atleast visit his daughter.

hopefully he gets ass raped, beaten to shit then has his throat slit and slowly drowns in his own blood by other inmates before he gets the chance to fry

poor girl

fucking bastards

Off with their heads! I hope they die a thousand agonizing deaths!

don't worry, i'm sure they'll get real warm receptions when they goto prison...

i agree with jaysin. i would kill both fuckers responsible. i wouldn't spend the rest of my life in prison either. cases like this are judged by a jury. a jury's decision is frequently based on emotion rather than fact. what jury is going to sentence you to life in prison for killing the people that tortured/killed your 2 yr old niece or sister or daughter? sure, you might spend some in jail, but not life, or anything close to it.

Weak-minded? These two are a lot more than "weak-minded". Weak-minded parents give in to all their precious darlings demands too quickly and they turn into spoiled little darling monsters. What these people did is far more pathological. Try words like "cruel", "cold", "callous", or "psychopathic". There is no excuse for this type of abusive behavior. None. And I truly hope that their is a special place in Hell (or whatever you believe in) for people that hurt children. Bastards.

That's very cruel... my heart is breaking

She'll find her place heaven where no harm can ever reach her again.

very fucked up....

now i see the death penalty aint so bad. i dont think anyone innocent got it...

Plain sad, poor little girl

Hope those two animals that killed her, die a horrible and agonising death

Who said weak minded?

the fucking bastards who did this to her should (also) be beaten up to death. stupid, stupid parents.

Horrible, horrible, horrible.

Makes me ashamed to be a human being.
