JUDGE GAGS RILEY CHOATE CASE

GAGGED
'NO EVIDENCE
THE case against monster dad Riley Choate who is accused of torturing killing his 13-year-old son took a bizarre twist, when the judge placed a gagging order on the case.
Along with his wife Kimberly Kubina, he is accused of the brutal torture of his son Christian, keeping him locked in a dog cage and barely feeding him.
The tragic 13-year-old wrote "I want to die" in a diary, just weeks before his life was cut short and his body was found buried near their home in a Gary, IN, trailer park.
But now Lake County Judge Diane Boswell  has placed a gagging order on the case, preventing any further reporting on the potentially sordid details of the case.
 The Juvenile Court last week released copies of their files on the Choate family, which detailed statements made by witnesses who said the couple and Christian's older sister regularly beat the boy from about 2007 until he died in the spring of 2009, allegedly after a Riley repeatedly struck the boy in the head.
The files also showed the Department of Child Services investigated  numerous allegations of abuse -- some substantiated, others not-- against Choate and Kubina dating as early as 1999.
As far back as 2008, caseworkers visited their home but  a period when his sister has told investigators the boy was being kept in a 3-foot-high dog cage, but after interviews they found no evidence of abuse.

  1. Let's see what happens. The system is sick of paying for these types of 'wackos', why waste another dollar on them, unless it's to pay for the electric shock to end their sorry lives? And throw the caseworker(s) that was also so stupid to miss such horror...they should be held accountable as well. The world needs to stop breeding dumb people. We can't afford to support them anymore. Not only that, but how in the world does the older sister who was part of the brutality ever going to be 'normal'? The only news is that Christian doesn't have to suffer here on earth anymore. He is set free, playing, running and laughing in heaven. Meanwhile, hell will be waiting for those who deserve it.
