Father, Three Others Indicted for Torturing Boys with Battery Charger
I have hot tipper Keith Tipton to “thank” for this story about Steve Lively and his merry band of dysfunctional adults, who were indicted by a grand jury this week for harm they allegedly inflicted against Lively’s two teenage sons. Lively, his wife (a.k.a. the boys’ stepmom), the wife’s brother, and some fourth dude who lived with the other three in this House of Mirrors are accused of starving the teens, and torturing them with a battery charger. The quatro also are accused of using habanero peppers to punish the 15- and 16-year-old whenever they were “bad”. And I’m sure the loving parents decided that they were bad with horrifying frequency.
Both Lively and his wife, Melissa Lively, could spend the next 20 years in prison if convicted of the charges against them. The boys’ sister, Amy Lively, says that her brothers are lying little assholes, and that mom and dad are innocent. That would be more believable if the pair didn’t have a 15-year history with Child Protective Services. They even lost custody of several of the kids for two years on neglect charges. So…why were they allowed to abuse and torture again, exactly? Where was CPS in all of this? More accurately, why aren’t state agencies properly funded and staffed so that asstards like this can be monitored?

No! the boy’s parents are never innocent! They’re guilty of hurting the boys with the battery charger! As for you, Amy Lively, you are a lying asshole, not your bros (short for brothers) and may God have mercy on your soul (along with your Mom and Dad’s souls)!

FYI, Rhonda Sue, yes, I think the boys were forced to eat those habanero peppers as a part of torture although that “so-called” Dad said that he made the boys eat them for punishment (I really think it’s torture)!

Zach, WHAT ARE YOU THINKING?!?!? Well, you think it’s okay to abuse and torture those poor little boys, but IT’S NOT AND WILL NEVER BE OKAY!!! These boys are really crying for help and you’ve got the nerve to insult them and to justify the so-called dad’s horrendous assaults! You are an idiot for choosing to support the dad, uncle, vile fat whore mom and some fourth bum…and even the sister over those poor boys! You and those 5 sick fucks (4 adults and a sister) are either on the team or not and if not, MOVE ON AND GET THE HELL OUT OF THIS FRIGGING SITE!!!!! This site is for people that care about kids, not for anyone to spew garbage!

One more thing: May God help your deranged soul, Zach. Seriously, how do you sleep at night?
February 20th, 2009 at 1:28 pm
sfdude_2008 Aren’t you the one that says don’t feed the trolls? Zach is just trying to get a rise out of someone or at least that’s what I made out of what I could read in his post. My questions are: Where is the mother of these kids? Why are they with the father and Step-mother? If they have a 15 year long record with CPS, which I’m sure involved these two teens, why in the world were the teens still placed back in the care of these people??

SouthernClass, look at Zach’s comment. That comment supported all those horrendous assaults that the so-called dad had done to those poor boys…and called us idiots as well. As for that “feeding the trolls” question, I am currently the one to say that (literally), but I wasn’t the first; in fact, April is the one that said “don’t feed the trolls” thing first, which made me realize that it is best to just ignore the trolls (in fact, I did not know better and thought it was best to “feed” them until I discovered April’s message about “feeding” the trolls, so back then, I did not know what “feeding the trolls” is until I got that “wake-up” call from April), so that’s why I say that whenever there’s a troll now. As for those questions about those scumbags for adults, I must say that these are good questions. First of all, well, I wonder where the mom (bio) is, too. Second of all, I do not know if she is with those 4 sick fucks or not; in fact, the reason why I called a step-mom a “mom” is because the so-called sister considers her as a “mom”, just so you know. Third of all, CPS is a big fat joke. Period. OK, back to that “feeding the trolls” thing. Literally. I “fought back” at Zach last month when I saw his inflammatory comment for the first time because I did not know that it was only to “feed the trolls”, let alone Zach…until now, that is, and, trust me, if it weren’t for April, then I wouldn’t have said “don’t feed the trolls” at all. I hope you understand what I just told you.
Trench Reynolds, is there a way that you can block Zach from commenting further in case he degenerates again and starts attacking us again? He is a troll and I guess he just wants sympathy.

August 26th, 2009 at 11:26 pm
so, amy, did you say it or not?
August 27th, 2009 at 8:01 am
What I want to know is: Exactly WHICH two kids is Amy ‘taking care of’ through this mess? I sincerely hope that it’s not the two ‘lying little assholes’. Heaven help those boys if the sister who turned on them is now in charge of their safety and well-being. Maybe CPS needs to be brought in again….

ur very immature to stick ur nose into someone elses business ur name is angel yet ur judging a situation and people based on nothing u dumb bitch for ur information i didn’t say that i have two little girls of my own to take care of and talk to my brothers everyday so fuck off noone cares about ur opinion u bored ass housewife
August 28th, 2009 at 3:54 am
Amy:
Improve your reading comprehension skills please. I said nothing about two little girls – I said which two KIDS. A good spell check program might come in handy for you as well.
I’m not judging the situation based on NOTHING – I am judging it based on what has been reported in the news. Also, if no one cares about my opinion, then why are you getting so bent out of shape about it? Obviously you care.
fuck angel:
I don’t even know where to begin with you….in less than three lines you have managed to break every grammatical rule I can think of, not to mention the spelling and punctuation errors.
Who ever responded to fuck angel above:
I didn’t say anything about the content of his comment, because you had covered it so well for me already. Thanks. The next time I see a starving kid being jolted with a battery charger, I’ll be sure to take your instructions under advisement, lol. I usually don’t do very well with the ‘walk away’ method of child abuse prevention, though. I’m old-school….I just like to jump right in and piss people off! And I’m SO good at it!
August 28th, 2009 at 2:55 pm
i know what i said and i can read perfectly fine u asked which two kids and i told u i have two little girls and for ur information i have never called my brothers liars u base everything u know and ur opinions on the news but until ur sitting in my livingroom and hearing it first hand u really should stay to ur own business
August 28th, 2009 at 2:57 pm
and for your information my two brothers spend time and talk with me on a regular basis u can’t say anything u just sound so ridiculous
August 28th, 2009 at 4:35 pm
amy lively:” i have never called my brothers liars”
“my two brothers spend time and talk with me on a regular basis”.
so then, you are acknowledging and admitting that your two brothers did not lie about what your parents and the two others did to them?
August 28th, 2009 at 5:08 pm
I think amy lively needs to go back to grammar school and learn proper punctuation.

sorry ashley, you’re about 4 months too late in commenting. nobody seems to give a rat’s ass about this story any more. unless, that is, you would like to see more insults hurled at your family? nice of you to bring it up again….be prepared….popular opinion has it that your family is a bit whacked.
January 1st, 2010 at 3:35 pm
shut da fuck up ur talking to a 13 year old btw. Dnt even be insulting my family. GET A LIFE
January 2nd, 2010 at 1:20 am
Hmmm, sounds like someone needs their mouth cleaned out, as a 13 year old, you really shouldn’t be using such language, it really doesn’t help win anyone over to your side, and 4 months after the story is posted is a little bit late to jump on defedning anyone, especially since no one has posted anything on this story in between.
