From PYSIH (people you'll see in hell):

"You know how it is when you’re hanging out with your buddies, having a few drinks and a few laughs. You crack a few lame jokes and pull a few party tricks out of your hat. Some of the old favorites are “The Blue Flame” and “Spin the Bottle” or better yet “Shove the Baby in the Clothes Dryer until She Bleeds from the Head.” Oh and what about the one where you lift the baby up high and then drop her to the ground????

What’s that you say? You have never played that one? Not ever?

It was a favorite of Wiremu Curtis, 19 and Micheal Curtis, 22. They would play this game, and many, many others with little Nia Glassie, while her mum, 22 year old Lisa Kuka and her cousin, 20 year old Micheal Pearson and his partner, 18 year old Oriwa Kemp watched and laughed.

On August 3rd 2007 Nia Glassie was pronounced dead after lapsing into a coma 36 hours before as a result of bleeding between her skull and her brain.

The Curtis brothers, Kemp, Pearson and Lisa Kuka were soon questioned and arrested on charges relating to Nia’s death.

During their investigation, local police found that a number of adults, both family members and neighbors, were aware of the neglect and abuse Nia was subject to…but did nothing to stop it.

A child witness to Nia’s constant plight has told a jury that Nia Glassie’s tormentors would not let her rest because they liked to hurt her. She said that brothers Micheal and Wiremu kicked the little girl three times in the head in the hours before she died, stating that they kicked her, “hard as a rock” and that Nia “then started to fall asleep.”

Micheal Curtis denied kicking Nia, telling the court she had fallen from his shoulders and hit her head on the ground.

The child witness (who cannot be named) also stated that Nia was “smashed up” by the Curtis brothers’ every day. She was there to witness the clothes dryer incident and described it in detail. “They shoved her in there and turned it on. She went round and round until her head bled. She was stuffed in there and they turned it on for about five minutes, and then they turned it off and she was hot. Boiling hot.”

The one thing constant in little Nia’s life was torment. The “games” she endured and suffered through included:

* Being kicked in the face, causing her nose to bleed.
* Being hit and slapped punched and jumped on.
* Having objects such as shoes thrown at her.
* Being subjected to verbal insults, such as being told she was ugly and stupid.
* Being forced into a T.V cabinet drawer.
* Getting dragged through the sandpit half naked causing friction burns.
* Getting shoved into piles of rubbish.
* Being made to bathe in cold water in the middle of the harsh New Zealand winter.
* Being folded into a sofa bed and sat on.
* Getting flung against a wall.
* Being held high in the air and then dropped to the floor.
* Being used for adult wrestling moves, copied from a PS2 game.
* Being whirled rapidly on a rotary clothes line until she was flung off.
* Getting put into a tumble dryer and spun on high temperature.
* Having her head and feet dangled into the fire place…while it was lit.
* Being kicked repeatedly in the head because she was crying.
* Getting left dying in a coma for 36 hours while mum and her friends’ party and think up new “games” to play with Nia.

Thankfully, the jury didn’t like the games any more than Nia did, and Wiremu Curtis and Micheal Curtis were found guilty in Rotarua High Court, in New Zealand, of murder.

Nia’s mother, Lisa Kuka was found guilty of 2 manslaughter charges relating to lack of protection and failure to seek medical help for her critically injured daughter.

Nia’s cousin, Micheal Pearson and his partner Oriwa Kemp were found not guilty of manslaughter in relation to her death. They were however found guilty along with the Curtis brothers of numerous other charges against the child.

They are all awaiting sentencing.

Justice Judith Trotter broke down following the verdicts and offered the jury counseling.

Editor’s comment: You know it’s bad enough when an adult hurt a kid because the adult gets angry. It’s even worse when a child is molested by a pedophile, but if you look at it as part of the big picture, the son of a bitch is just doing what pedophiles do. But these bastards killed Nia Glassie because it was fun. Think about that for a second. These less than humans didn’t get pleasure from causing pain, like a sadist would, they got a good laugh. These deviant little shits tortured a three year old girl to death because they thought it was FUNNY. I was so mad the first time I read this story I snapped my damn Sharpie in half. How do you punish people like this, or maybe a better question would be, how do you create people like this? Garbage like this wasn’t born, it wasn’t even hatched. It was excreted from the mother-thing like some kind of human fecal matter, its stench befouling anyone and anything that dared to approach. And the only way to deal with it is to do what we always do with such things….Flush’em!"

A News Article:

"A year after toddler Nia Glassie was brutally beaten to death, her grandparents now focus on raising her three siblings.

Two hundred people attended the unveiling of Nia's headstone at Tokoroa's Lawn Cemetery on Saturday.

The crowd included Nia's mother, Lisa Kuka who is charged with her manslaughter and Nia's paternal grandparents, Tokoroa couple Glassie Glassie Sr and his wife Celline. The unveiling was the first time the children had seen their mother since her arrest last year.

Nia suffered a brutal death she died in Auckland's Starship hospital from horrific injuries, including claims she was swung on a clothesline. Five people are before the courts charged over her death.

"The unveiling was a celebration for her and a chance for us to say our last goodbye," Celline Glassie told the Waikato Times. The paternal grandparents had little contact with their grandchildren before Nia's death. "Since her death we have been bringing up our three grandkids, we got custody after she died."

The children, aged 12, 11 and nine, are Nia's siblings fathered by the Glassies' son Glassie Glassie Jr to Kuka.

Mrs Glassie said: "The kids have not heard or seen their mother for a year. At the unveiling was the first time they had seen her."

Glassie Glassie Jr is still based in Australia and visits regularly. He is in the process of moving back to New Zealand to bring up his children.

The family have no ill feeling toward those accused of killing their granddaughter.

"We are not angry, there is no point. Whatever attitude we have won't bring our baby back."

Mr Glassie Sr said their faith had helped them survive. "We are relaxing now that our darling's headstone is up. All we do now is focus on our babies that are here."

In June a High Court judge reserved her decision on whether the trial of five Rotorua people charged in relation to the death of Nia would be moved elsewhere.

Justice Judith Potter also reserved her decision on applications from two of the accused Oriwa Terina Kemp, 17, and Michael Paul Pearson, 19 to have manslaughter charges against them dropped.

Kuka, 34, is charged with manslaughter by failing to provide medical treatment."

I couldn't find any pictures of her after death or of the autopsy, but I think we all have somewhat of an image in our heads of what she looked like..

Cheers Aria

It's good you didn't post any pics of the little girl post mortem. It would've only made people angrier. There are no words to describe the suffering this poor child underwent. It is an unfortunate tragedy. I've said it many times in DR: some parents aren't cut out to be parents.

We should be happy for little Nia. **She's not suffering anymore.**

Great post, Aria. Thanks for keeping us in touch with reality.

These MOTHERFUCKERS will be seen in HELL

[collaredgirl65]

Very good post Aria. I cried for this little girl and what she had to endure and also tears of anger that these monster could do this to her and then a couple of them petitioned to have the charge of manslaughter dropped against them.. that is just unreal that they won't take responsability for what they did. I hope they get sent to a jail in general population and the other inmates find out what they are in there for. That would be justice served.

This is the second post you've had that's made me lose faith in humanity Aria.

Sheesh, what the fuck is wrong with people. If I saw someone drop a baby in front of me i'd punch them in the face.

If they did it on purpose though? The fuck, this post would be a story about how they're still trying to identify the bodies of the people at the party.

[bastardblack]

that is one of the most horrific stories of abuse and murder of a child i have ever heard of. how could the mother have even been eligable for release to go to the funeral.as a recent new father of a 3month old it really pulls at the heart to imagine such an atrocity. since they are all guilty obviously i wonder what the maximum sentence to be imposed in a new zealand court is?
