Шаблон:Short description Lydia Charity Schatz (March 15, 2002 – February 6, 2010)[1] was a 7-year-old American child of Liberian origins who was killed in 2010 by her adoptive parents in an attempt to discipline her.[2][3]

Background

Kevin and Elizabeth Schatz lived in Paradise, California, where they were raising and homeschooling their six biological and three adopted children.[4][5] In 2007, they had adopted Lydia along with two other children from Liberia. Later that year, Kevin was interviewed in the family home by KNVN TV regarding his love of children and the adoption process.[6]

Murder

On February 5, 2010, Lydia Schatz received forceful and numerous whippings with a quarter-inch plastic tubing. She was held down for nine hours by Elizabeth and beaten dozens of times by Kevin on the back of her body, causing massive tissue damage according to Butte County District Attorney Mike Ramsey. She was being disciplined for apparently mispronouncing a word.[7][4] She died in the hospital on February 6, 2010.[8] Her sister, Zariah, 11 years old, was also beaten for "being a liar and a bad influence on the 7 year old."[4] Zariah was hospitalized in critical condition with severe injuries, but she survived.[3][6][5]

Trial

The Schatzes told police they were following the teachings about child discipline of a fundamentalist Christian organization headed by Michael and Debi Pearl.[9][7] Investigators say the Schatzes practiced a similar form of corporal punishment on their six biological children and were training their oldest daughter in the proper way to deliver spankings. Pearl's website suggests "A swift whack with the plastic tubing would sting but not bruise. Give ten licks at a time, more if the child resists."

Kevin Schatz was found guilty of second degree murder and torture and was sentenced to two concurrent life sentences, with 22 years minimum. Elizabeth Schatz was found guilty of voluntary manslaughter and infliction of unlawful corporal punishment and was sentenced to 13 years.[10][11]
