News summary

Ernest Lamar Love, a 41-year-old barber from Placentia, California, has been charged with the murder, torture, and child abuse of 6-year-old Chance Crawford, whom he was babysitting. Love allegedly beat the child with a piece of lumber after the boy urinated in his pants at a park, then poured hydrogen peroxide on his wounds and forced him to perform exercises until he collapsed. Chance was later taken to the Children's Hospital of Orange County with severe injuries, including missing flesh, brain swelling, and subdural hematoma, and he died on September 3. Love, who met Chance's mother at a church where he served as a minister, has pleaded not guilty and is being held without bail. The Orange County community, including members of their church, is deeply traumatized by the incident.
