Child to 911 dispatcher: 'My daddy killed me with a butcher knife'

TACOMA, Washington (AP) -- A seriously wounded 8-year-old boy calmly described his father's deadly knife rampage during a call for help to 911. "My daddy killed me with a knife and I'm gone," the boy told a dispatcher. "Can you please send the Army men or the ambulance?"

It staggers the imagination...this little boy's courage, the loss of his mother, the fact that he survived....I have NO words regarding his father. <span style='colorurple'></span>

I saw this on the news - they had the tape and a transcript. Very very sad. No child should even think about things like this let alone go through them.

That just goes to show how truly amazing all kids are. They are so innocent that I guess horror just doesn't sink in right away. I NEVER want to take a call like that, I can only hope I never have too.

That's....speechless. I'm speechless. If I were the police officer that went on that, the perp wouldn't be alive and I would be in jail. End of story. Some people are just disgusting. Utterly disgusting.
