    Sick toddler’s parents charged for her strict vegan diet
    The charged parents outside Waverley Local Court yesterday. Picture: Hollie Adams
    Sydney parents have pleaded not guilty to child neglect charges after they allegedly fed their toddler a strict vegan diet severely deficient in nutrients.

    The 20-month-old girl’s serious condition was discovered only when she was admitted to Sydney Children’s Hospital in March after suffering a seizure.

    Police from the Child Abuse and Sex Crimes Squad were told by doctors the toddler was malnourished, suffered rickets — a preventable bone disease — and her height and weight were markedly low for her age.

    Police arrested the child’s mother, 31, and father, 33, at a house in Kogarah, in Sydney’s south, on Friday.

    During a brief appearance in Waverley Local Court, the couple, dressed in white shirts and holding hands, indicated they intend to plead not guilty to charges of failing to provide for a child, causing danger of serious injury and reckless grievous bodily harm. The Director of Public Prosecutions is still finalising the brief of evidence against the pair.

    The couple refused to speak to waiting media when leaving court yesterday, shielding their faces as they walked with their lawyers.

    The parents, who are on bail, are also the subject of a continuing apprehended violence order, which was filed by police on behalf of their daughter.

    The parents are due to face court on May 30.

    We are losing our country to the inexorable rise of marxist social engineering.

    Signed my tax returns yesterday, noticed this new feature. "indeterminate"?

    What possible benefit is this knowledge to the ATO?

    For those of you who don't understand what this means,even in a reasonably wet area like mine,is that the farmers in about a 150 klm radius (it was built for an irrigation scheme) now have 3 years insurance if we miss out on subsequent wet seasons.

    There's a trailblazer in the green/left. I wish they'd all adopt the same tactic



    David Buckel, 60, had been well-known for his work on behalf of the LGBT community, as well as with environmental groups.

    A suicide note near the lawyer's remains said he had immolated himself using fossil fuel to symbolize the damage humans are doing to the Earth. Buckel had also reportedly sent the note to multiple news outlets, including The New York Times, warning that people were dying early deaths as a result of breathing in bad air.

    “Pollution ravages our planet, oozing inhabitability via air, soil, water and weather,” Buckel wrote in his email to the Times.

    “Most humans on the planet now breathe air made unhealthy by fossil fuels, and many die early deaths as a result—my early death by fossil fuel reflects what we are doing to ourselves.”

    “A life of privilege requires actions to balance the harm caused, and the greater the privilege, the greater the responsibility," Buckel added. "For if one does not leave behind a world better for having lived in it, all that remains are selfish ends, sometimes wrapped in family or nation.”

    Buckel had been the lead lawyer in the case of Brandon Teena, a transgender teen who police were found to have failed to protect after he was brutally raped and later, murdered in Nebraska.

    The 1999 film Boys Don't Cry, starring Hilary Swank, who won an Oscar for the role, was based on Teena's story.

    The prominent lawyer also worked as a Marriage Project Director and Senior Counsel at Lambda Legal, which has long fought for LGBT rights.

    Tributes have begun to pour in for Buckel, with Lambda Legal calling his death a loss for the "entire movement for social justice."

    "The news of David's death is heartbreaking. This is a tremendous loss for our Lambda Legal family, but also for the entire movement for social justice," the firm wrote in a statement published online.

    Calling him a "beautiful human," the firm said "David was an indefatigable attorney and advocate, and also a dedicated and loving friend to so many. He will be remembered for his kindness, devotion, and vision for justice."

    "We have lost a movement leader, a colleague, and a friend," Lambda Legal added. "We will honor his life by continuing his fight for a better world."
