Parents of Andrew Freund, the 5-year-old boy who was found dead Wednesday about a week after the father reported him missing, are being held on $5,000,000 bonds.

the following morning, Freund calmly told a dispatcher that Andrew was not at the home when he returned from a doctor's appointment.

Cunningham and Freund both face five counts of first-degree murder. In addition, Cunningham was charged with four counts of aggravated battery, two counts of aggravated domestic battery, and one count of failure to report a missing child death. A spokesman for the agency said they were in contact with Andrew's parents twice last year — once in March and again in December — over alleged abuse and neglect.reported that Andrew also spent two years in foster care after he was born with opiates in his system.

Isn’t this just considered abortion in some states? Poor kid. I hope God has him now.

SO! Ms. Freund cries when she is charged. Where were her tears when she, and her husband were listening to the crying of their battered son, as they beat him to death, eh? I have zero sympathy for the woman!

So sad the police knew this little boy knew he was abused where was his protection where was Children’s services? Prayers baby boy fly high

😘😥

Looking at his little face, I wish that I could make what happened to him untrue. andrewfreund

There should be zero tolerance for child abuse.

What?! They didn't claim a black man did it Surprising.

And the mother is pregnant, right? Jesus

When you’re a child you go to your parents when you’re scared. Where does a child go when he’s scared of his parents? This is extremely sad.

morgfair vp realDonaldTrump PressSec megynkelly KellyannePolls foxandfriends just waiting for DerangedDonald to pardon the parents because they were just good people...

My heart breaks for poor Andrew. 😢 Our child protection services are deeply flawed. They failed this little boy and they need to do better! May he rest peacefully and may his evil parents go straight to Hell!

Can’t wait for the KARMA awaiting those so called parents

How very tragic! RIP little angel! 💕

That poor little boy. His last moments on earth he was crying and wondering why his parents couldn’t just love him & feed him & keep him warm. My heart breaks for him. No little child should endure that. The couple are a good advertisement for abortion.

This poor little boy. He didn't deserve this. I hope his parents never see the light of day free again!

morgfair This poor baby is probably better off dead. What do you want to bet he had no peace in his life. Until now. Rest In Peace little one.

I pray that Andrew’s soul rests in peace and rests with God’s love, and with God’s love I pray he won’t remember his painful time in this world

What's it going to take to get ppl Alert and Aware to report mistreatment of children? I grew up in a violent home, with God's Grace I got out but back then everything was hush hush...don't tell. I tried to tell but knew at that young age, no one would believe me

Awful! How do those two people lift their heads today.. I know people who would have loved that child. Why would you kill an innocent kid? hateful

Death penalty for the parents! The End!

and this is why capital punishment should remain...for crimes like these. Evil doesn't do good wasting tax payers dollars on jail.

Little Andrew, you are safe in God's arms now. Never to be hurt again.

So sad. Our Child Protective Services is sadly lacking. Those boys should have been taken away long before this tragedy. We treat animals better. If they are removed cuz of abuse they are never returned

Why why why..., would anyone do such a thing to a child?

So many people want to be parents..by birth..adoption..fostering..yet these people had children and treated them in this manner..for shame on them and the system that didn't rescue that child..

😢

This is so sad. To get killed by the people who are supposed to protect you the most is heartbreaking. Rest in peace Andrew. May the angels wrap their arms around you.

I Will NEVER Understand What Drives One To Murder? NEVER!!!

I hope the people we pay to protect children victims such as Andrew rot in hell.

They need a death sentence!

I would personally like to invite his parents over to my house for dinner and ....................

People can be so awful

The 'system' definitely failed this child!!!

RIP little Andrew

Death penalty for both. Poor baby.....
