steven dickerson that makes me mad December 27, 2010

the story of kelsey briggs its real sad to hear that the judge gave her back to her mother and step father. he should be in jail has well and so should the people that worked that case or they should lose there jobs because of that. after playing her video about her and getting more info about her story. i have made my mind up. im goin nation wide and im goin to fight for these kids to have a better life then what they have now. im goin to fight to stop child abuse and to stop child killing. and i pray for her family and to her father that has fought for are freedom and i just want to say thank u for doin that.

Rondha I dream.... November 10, 2010

When I close my eyes, I dream of angels

their wings spread wide and then embrace

God's special children, with loving grace.

When I close my eyes, I dream of Heaven

a garden so beautiful such a glorious place

gazing into our father's loving, gentle face

When I close my eyes, I dream of Jesus

guiding us safely, through time and space

to a loving father, no pain or hurt, not a trace

When I close my eyes, I dream of you there

you are safe now in our father's loving care

waiting so patiently for us to join you there.

 

 

Rest In Peace, in the shadow of the angel's wings

Rest In Peace, in our father's arms,

basking in the radiance of his glorious face

to those left behind, you are greatly missed

We place you in God's holy Grace,

the home in heaven Jesus went first to prepare

you are there now in his loving care,

we hope to one day join you there.

Tania Palmer No Words... August 19, 2010
I watched both sides of the story on how this little one went through this. It wasn't your site that made my choice, but her mother's site. I have 4 children with preemie twins that are now 12 1/2. I would never let anyone...family, husband, friend, stranger or boyfriend ever hurt my children. They would have to kill me first and trust me that I would fight to the death.   I watch this poor little girl's mother and her family make her daddy out to be a monster. They show only happy times and won't allow any comments. They convinced me that the mother is right were she should be and I think she is worse for allowing a man to harm her child. You live with anyone over a few months and you know what they are made of. You may have been a great mother at one time, but when you allow a love of a man be stronger than the love of your child. You stopped being a mother. I pray for this daddy who came back from war to this nightmare. They try to make him out to be a bad guy for drinking, cussing and being mad? Guess what? This is what greiving parents do after losing their child.   I have Jesus in my heart, but losing my nephew in 13 days from the swine flu has turned my life upside down. I cry, have nightmares, pray and do my best not to let my children see my grief. The end of September will be a year. If there had been a trial, I mentally could have not been there. I don't blame this father for being mad and he might need help to get through it. The war alone make soldiers break down and he also has to deal with his daughter's death? Yes, I believe any woman that allows a man to harm her child even once with out having them arrested should be put to death just as much as the person who did it. No man should ever be more important than your child.I will be praying for Lance and his family. If you get a chance, please tell the other side that they were the ones that showed me who was really guilty in harming this beautiful child. I wouldn't want to be them when they meet their maker.
shakita green a beautiful angel February 19, 2010
If I could trade my life to give you back that beautiful baby, I would do it in a heartbeat. She should be here enjoying life and doing things kids do. But an horrible person destroyed her before she had a chance to live. I hope you find comfort in knowing she'll always be an angel. She is so beautiful. Nobody deserves the pain you're going through. May God keep you.
Tammy L Kelsey is my inspiration January 21, 2010
After recieveing her video on facebook and watching it more than once because of the tears I decided then to change my degree plan in college and become a social worker to help protect little angels such as Kelsey. I wish there was more I could do But i do know the day I do recieve my diploma from kaplan university i will be dedicating it to Kelsey because her story touched me more than anyother and i have been sent a lot of videos on facebook pertaing to similar cases but none as touching as Little Kelsey!!!!!!!!! When i feel like i can not do the work or i am stressed out from it i think of her and realize what i am doing this for and the reason i am doing this is to fight for children like Kelsey. I can not have a child that gift was taken from me! Love you Little Angel Kelsey Briggs!!!!!!!
Mother of 2 BURN BABE BURN December 27, 2009

I dont care if she done it or not shes still to blame because she allowed it to happen "SORRY BITCH" I have two kids of my own and i would die before i let anyone hurt them!!!!!I hope some girl beats her ass everyday!!!!!

Lance-  I have 3 young boys and cannot begin to comphrend what you must be going through losing a child! I have always held the upmost respect & regard for those of you who make our country safer to live in.  I have never seen a story so heart-breaking, especially the pix of you at Kelsey's resting spot when you got back from Iraq.  I know there is nothing I can say to ease your pain or suffering, all I can do is to keep circulating your story to friends.  You had a beautiful girl with a smile that would light up a room!  Her pix will be burned in my mind forever & I am in RN school, so I will fight hard anytime I see a bruise on a little child!  Thank you for serving our country and working hard to prevent this abuse happening to someone else. I am also happy that they both went to jail where they belong!  Kelsey looked like an angel on earth & maybe God knew that the courts couldn't protect her & he wanted her safe with Him. In all honestly, I am not a religious fanatic, but I do feel that God wanted her safe with him, where she is always smiling & doesn't  feel anymore pain. If there's anything I can do in the state of Indiana, please let me know! Amy

mommy to angel Hanah Dillard your beautiful angel November 3, 2009
I too saw Kelsee's story on facebook. I also cried through the entire thing and sat in disbeleif and disgust. I wish there were words to ease your pain but, I know that there are no such words. I will pray for your family and for justice. I know that my little girl and Kelsee are having the best time in Heaven. God bless you
Leah The little sweet angel.. October 13, 2009

Someone just sent me a video of kelsey through my facebook and I just can't stop crying. I have a daughter of my own, she is 2 1/2 years old. What a shame how somebody could ever think of doing that to an innocent child... I have reflected for a couple of days now, and it made me realize how important my daughter is, and I had loved her even more.. I am a Filipino nurse working in UK right now, and I had left her in the Philippines with her grand mother and father. I know how it feels to be away from your child, and everyday I prayed that nothing bad will ever happen to her as I am away. Now, I am more pursued to take her with me after several months ... My condolence to the family of Kelsey. Kelsey, you are such a strong little angel.. Now that you are in heaven, I know that God is showering you with all the gifts and love.. May you rest in God's embrace..

mom 2 Waylon Kitchens 4 ever loved and misses October 10, 2009
Mom to Angel Chance Wilcox To Such a Sweet Angel September 15, 2009

I saw your video on Facebook and was taken aback.  I am so sorry for the loss of this sweet little angel girl.  It just sickens me that people are capable of such things.  My prayers are with your family and may little Kelsey rest in peace.

 

Rina Angel of my heart September 9, 2009
I got Kelsey's video from my facebook,a friend fowarded it to me two weeks ago but only watched it 2 days ago. Her story really make me cry and i couldnt sleep. Thinking of her makes me thinking of my baby girl that is 2 years old 2 weeks now,the same age where Kelsey's had suffered alot. Kelsey's story makes me love my baby girl now more than before,i will take a good care of my baby.And you baby Kelsey do take care of yourself up there,I know GOD is always be with you.I still pray for justice of ur abuse and murder. I will always love you and miss you Angel of my heart. Lots of HUGS AND KISSES.
tana she touche my life.. September 4, 2009

she shares my daughters birthday. I recieved a foreward on facebook with her video tribute.

 

I could not stop crying. So many things to say and yet no words fit the feelings.

I cannot get over the video and the broken spirit you see in the final pictures.

I wish we could eliminate the people who do this to children instead of filling prison space. what really upsets me is in searching more info online there is a website for "free kelseys mom" and it says she had no idea there was abuse occuring.

 

I think she is a selfish twit who cared more about having a male (not a man) in her bed than her child. I also think she is incompetent to believe her husbands stories that the step sister did it. I am sure like any talkative 2 year old she wore her heart on her sleeve and probably would get upset when "mom or stepdad" would come and pick her up. And if she belived the step sister caused the bruises at the time it would have bee a good time to leave too, at least for a normal person.

I am saddend by how many people let her down. and moved by how many other strangers feel the same.

Her Daddy not even having a chance to see her at his homecoming.

It crushes me...

 

and 27 and 30 years is not good enough , I hope the murderers die in prison!

Misty Dolgin Once You See Something You Can Never Unsee it... August 29, 2009
I joined the Cause to stop child abuse and Kelsey's video was paired with the cause.  I watched this video last night and have been crying ever since.  She was such a beautiful girl and it breaks my heart to think of what she had to endure. My prayers are with Mr. briggs and his family.  I have a 2 1/2 year old son and I could not imagine the pain you have felt for the loss of Kelsey.  This little girl will always be in my heart.  Best wishes.
Peggy Gibson Faith August 27, 2009
There are not words enough to express my deepest sorrow for Kelsey's family.  The only comfort you can have is to keep her in your heart and she will always be with you.

Samay Shes was Beautiful April 27, 2009
I am writing a paper about kelsey and her tragic story. I was watching the memorie videos on youtube and i am sitting in class bawling my eyes out. I dont see how a person could do something tht tragic to such a beautiful little girl. To her family i am very sorry that this had to happen she was a beautiful baby and she was full of smiles. I am sorry about your loss. R.I.P Kelsey you will be greatly missed hun
Clara Your little Angel April 10, 2009
Words can NOT even express my deepest smypothy's to Kelsey and her family. I can not go word after word and picture after picture with out a tear!!! Especially looking and admiring all your wonderful picture's of such a beautfiul little girl she is. What kind of animal can do thing's to harm such a precious and innocent human being?  I'm sorry, I know that those word's won't bring back your Kelsey, but she and your family will always be in my heart and prayers.
Mark Thank you. March 20, 2009
We lost one angel but saved thousands and opened the minds of people all over this world that their are still children that cry for help out in the shadows, hopefully you kelsey will answer those crys, thank you.
Irene Paul I'll never forget February 26, 2009

I saw a video about Kelsey's life yesterday and I'm very troubled, I can't stop thinking about her and crying.

 

What kind of animals would do this to a sweet defenceless child.  They broke Kelsey's spirit - you can see that in some of the final pictures.  I don't understand how even after Kelsey's legs were both broken, among other things, she was returned to the care of these undeserving people.  How can the people who did nothing live with themselves?  I see the picture with the red and green cast and I just want to scream. 

 

It's sad that Kelsey had to lose her life but when she stopped eating, she probably wanted to die. 

 

Kelsey's mother made a comment in her interview about how they are using Kelsey to get more votes by creating Kelsey's law.  This to me is a clear indication that she's not the innocent one she pretends to be.  Was Kelsey her possession to do with whatever she pleased (like serve as a punching bag for her idiot boyfriend's frustrations?).  Kelsey's law is not about votes - it's about Kelsey not dying in vain - it's about awareness. 

 

Rest in peace little Kelsey - I'm sorry you never found out how life can be truly beautiful, all you know was helplessness, tears and pain.

Amber McElroy She Is So Beautiful!!!!! December 27, 2008

I can only say I'm sorry this happened to your family. Thank God you are fighting for her. I lost my Angel Abigail McElroy due to her being stillborn at 8 months. I can only say we will see all of our Angels in Heaven some day. I can sign petitions if you need me to. This is a huge problem in the US. I long for another child so bad that it brings me to tears to know someone could be so evil to a child. No child should have to go that way. When you are in dout or having a hard time look to God he will pull you through. I know it's hard after things like this happen to have faith, but without him we would never had our little Angels to begin with. If you ever want to talk, I am here. I will pray for you and your family. Her story has to be heard. God Bless.

Here is a poem I wrote a couple days ago.

 

Don't Waste Your Tears

 

Don't waste your tears on me.

For I have sat upon the Lord's knee.

He has sent his Angel's down for me, so Heaven is where I must be.

Mommy please come to terms with me being up in Heaven, for God has chosen me.

 I am so sorry. i cried when i found out. I might only be 12 but i no how it feels to lose someone you love. I lost my grandmother. It just makes me sick to my stomach to see people abuse little innocent kids. I really wish somehow i could of helped her. Once again i'm sooooo sorry that happened.

May god be with her and watch over her precious soul, and i will make a differnce in child abuse i love you kelsy and im glad your in a better place now =*(  </3 my heart is broken<3

Janice & Timothy Maeder Little Butterfly November 1, 2008

We send out our deepest smpathy to the family of Kelsey Briggs, our prayers and thoughts will always be with you. Life has a way of throwing so many things at us, and we have to stand strong and know that God makes no mistakes. He will prevail over those who caused harm to sweet Kelsey. The lord's justice will be better than what any man can do. The years that you had with her were a blessing. Her life was not in vain, she will live on forever in the hearts of so many who know her story. She left so soon, but her short life will save so many. Remember the good times, her laughter and her smile all the way down to her little handprints. I know your family has shed so many tears, but rest assured that she is at peace. Your little butterfly has many colors of love, she won the fight in her own right. She lives in spirit and you will see her again. God bless the entire family. If you ever need someone to pray with, you may contact me by email at jmaeder6870@aol.com God bless you and the entire family. Janice & Timothy Maeder

Tiffany Beautiful September 3, 2008
I did not know Kelsey, or her family and I just learned of this story. But it breaks my heart to know that someone so beautiful and so innocent can be a victim of such terrible abuse. My heart goes out to not only Kelsey, but all of the children that are victims as well. Its hard to say that these children are in a better place, because it should always be good with your parents, but for some, thats just not the case. I will keep Kelsey and her family in my thoughts and prayers and can only hope that she is looking down upon us smiling. We will miss you angel.
Erica So Sad July 19, 2008

                I dont know how any mother could hurt there precious child. I know many people who would have loved her. Her dad did and he deserved her. I feel sorry for the dad because she would have been his pride and joy and she will always be. But now no one can walk her down the aisle or anything it hurts. The mother and stepfather should have had a death penalty or life in prison because now they can hurt more children when they are out.

jessica i cried July 17, 2008

   when i heard this story of kelsey briggs it made me cry and  this little girl needed her mother and she wasn't there for her like she should of been maybe if she was her little girl would still be here today but she wasn't ..........

 kelsey briggs will always be in my heart i want to help people who has had this happen to them.....   my best friend her little sister was abused by her step father and she had past away when she was 4 years old

Amanda Mommie July 10, 2008

I have lost a child myself, it hurts everyday no matter where you go or what you do! I have 3 other children and I love them like there is no tomorrow! I still pray and talk to my precious baby, I ask God to remind me of the good times and to help me accept what has happend so that I will not remain angry! Over time I am healing and facing each day with an open heart! The things that happed to Kelsey are horriable, but God WILL deal with the one that did this. He knows all and you cant ever hide! In my heart I would like to believe the Kelseys mom really did not just allow this to happen, but on the other hand how could she not notice something was wrong. At this point I have stopped and prayed and asked God to take this hurt away from my heart and I have also pryed that he touch everyone involved! There is no need for judgement from anyone but GOD. I pray that the family of this beautiful angel pray for peace and understanding, knowing that if you take the hand of Jesus, he and his Father will see you through. Like I said before, you never forget and it hurts always but with Jesus the pain if bearable. He will make a way!

May your hearts heal and my deepest sympathy always........

Steve McPhail Kelsey, I love and miss you June 2, 2008

Kelsey,

I just wanted you to know that even though I never knew you; you'll always have a place in my heart... FOREVER . I just wish that you didn't have to endure all that pain and suffering!   I'll never stop thinking about you!   Kelsey, I love and miss you sweetheart!!   Lots of love and hugs!: Steve McPhail

Bee Kelsey April 16, 2008
I just don't understand how anyone could hurt a child. Kelsey, I think of you and your story and I wonder how things like this can happen. It's like all the "if only's" come into play... if only someone had taken more notice, if only you were old enough to tell someone what was happening. But you can't dwell on those things and I appreciate your grandmother for what she's done in your memory. You deserve to be remembered, Kelsey, because you didn't deserve to die. My heart and my thoughts are with you and your family, Kelsey. You made an impact on the world just by being you, your brave self. Rest in peace, angel.
Mary Dingler THOUGHTS April 9, 2008
I don't understand this sad world we live in.  A world where mother's ignore their babies-A world where men beat children to death-A sad cruel world.  It rips my heart when I see your beautiful face in the pictures.  Especially the ones showing your visible bruises and broken little legs.  I just understand this at all.  My heart is breaking at the injustice.  We love you baby kelsey and miss you.  We are thinking of you forever and will see you one day in Heaven.  Save some hugs for me.

I have three children and I can not believe a mom let somebody do something like that to her little princess. My heart goes to the fater and other family members that gave her love and care while she was in this world. I wish I could have done something for you, you have touch my heart. I hope that from heaven you can see how many people loves you and how many hearts you have touched. You are in my heart little princess. God bless you litle angel!

Melissa Little Angel March 26, 2008

I first became of Kelsey's story from a post on myspace. I am a Mother of 4 very beautiful children and could never imagine what I would do, if i ever "suspected" that someone wanted or was to hurt them. I look at my children everyday and thank god for such a prescious gift is has given me

 

To the family of Kelsey,

Mine & my daughters heart ache for you, I couldn't imagine a day without my children in it. your story has touched our hearts forever. She may be one of god's most prescious angels but, her life had meaning and purpose. I am sorry that all of you had to suffer the way that you have.

 

briana im sorry kelsey March 20, 2008

            Hugs and Kisses from your friend!!!

                 May God be with you!!!!!!!!!!

Amy Sefton I am so sorry!!! March 19, 2008

I am a step-mother.  I was in the legal profession for 10 years and it just absolutely sickens me what the judicial system has done to the fathers of this country.  My step-daughter Alexis J. Sefton died 3 years ago on Mother's Day.  Her mother had been investigated several weeks prior to her death for leaving her unattended in an unlocked vehicle while she was in the mall shopping.  My husband, Alexis's father, was never notified.  Although her mother had custody we had her most of the time, even on that mother's day, because she had no use for her, her boyfriend didn't like her.  We dropped her off at 1:00 p.m. and at 5:30 p.m. we got a call to come to the hospital as fast as we could, she had fallen in a pool.  She was gone before we got there.  She had been in that pool for over 30 minutes before she was found according to paramedics.  We received no answers, conflicting stories and when we did find an officer to look into, he got sick with cancer.  Right before I decided to leave the legal field, i just helped a National Guardsman who just had returned from Iraq to get emergency custody of his daughter when he returned.  A few months later he died due to injuries he sustained, and she got to back to mom.  The same mom that didn't take care of her while she was away.  There are no rights for fathers, and some fathers are 100% better then some mothers out there.  Your daughter will never be replaced but, you will see her again, take peace in that.  She will suffer no longer.  I wish you could take down that free her mommy page.  She needs to live in the hell that she caused and let happen.  God be with you.  I wish I could tell you time heals...but time does help you get one foot infront of another.
