<p class="mol-para-with-font">Although the remains of the youngster buried in a shallow grave last October , and the fact that he was beaten to death established, there are fears that the death of the only eye witness to the event could make it an uphill task obtaining justice for baby Chance.<br />
&#8216;This could turn into a dismissal of the case for all we know,&#8217; he said. According to criminal trial attorney Joe Viacava, &#8216;This could turn into a dismissal of the case for all we know,&#8217; he said.<br />
&#8216;Having the one person that was there with no other real significant evidence, other than some minor forensic evidence, and as well as no eye witnesses testimony &#8211; she was critical to the case.<br />
&#8216;If she becomes the linchpin to their case and she&#8217;s no longer there to testify, that could be the difference between a conviction and an acquittal.&#8217;</p>

&#8216;Understand I will always love my daughter. She was my flesh and blood, as Chance was to her.<br />
&#8216;And fortunately I do have the mother instinct, so this is extremely difficult, but justice needs to be done and we don&#8217;t feel the sentence was strong enough.<br />
&#8216;Mothers are supposed to protect their child at all cost and that wasn&#8217;t done.&#8217;<br />
