What Additional Charges Will Be Filed?
“Acts Were Devoid of Human Emotion”
Questions Most Asked by ReadersÂ
“The world is a dangerous place to live; not because of the people who are evil, but because of the people who don’t do anything about it.”–Albert Einstein
2-year-old Riley Sawyers was savagely and repeatedly beaten and tortured until she was dead. The punishment was inflicted on her by her alleged mother–the one person a defenseless toddler turns to for protection and comfort.
Kimberly Dawn Trenor and her accomplice/boyfriend/husband completed their vile deed and then stashed the little girl’s body in a storage shed. After many days, they took a trip to buy their Wal-Mart version of Riley’s casket: a cooler commonly used for picnics.
At that moment, Trenor’s mothering instinct apparently asserted itself: Riley Sawyer’s body was found wrapped in plastic and laid in her temporary resting place. It was set adrift in Galveston Bay, to be found on a sandbar by a fisherman.
It’s a mystery why they treated Riley’s body more gently after she was dead than when she was living through what must have been her last confused, hurting, terror-filled moments.
Her mother described to police how she “beat the child with leather belts and held her head under water in the bathtub. She said Zeigler picked the girl up by her hair and also threw her across the room, slamming her head into the tile floor.”
Speculation
The charges currently against the pair consist of tampering with evidence and injuring the child. What additional charges they face is speculation at this moment.
The final scene described by Trenor is one, in the words of one writer, “where acts were committed that were devoid of any human emotion”.

Perhaps they should use the same defences that Riley was granted against the general prison population. Really, is it worth the money to segregate these cowards against the general poplulation?
All are Good questions, Wendy.
I’m one of those people who think that people get what they have coming to them , for better or for worse, in the end.
Dear Mondoreb
One can only hope that they do get what is coming to them in the end, I share your same beliefs. Though, I do not think that they should hide their cowardice within the protection of the legal system and resort to their ” human rights” when they so denied any humanity and rights to the child. With this extreme brutality inflicted upon Riley, the rest of their life should be in daily survival and their final moments in life dealing with the fear of the unknown.
WHY! Did they do that…is what I keep asking myself. From all of the photo’s I have seen she was always clean and dressed cute, which shows love and care. The clothing items described when the photo sketch of Baby Grace was released she was dressed cute then too. Why, why, why, she was just a baby!
I can not imagine.
It sickens and enrages me to think that a poor defensless child could be treated so badley. Anyone who would do this deserves to be treated the same way they treated this child. Someone 5 times there size should beat and torture them and leave them to die. I have no sympathy for these monsters, they had none for poor little Riley.
I feel so angry and so so sad for this poor little innocent baby. How could the mother let this go on standing there letting him kill her baby as she says to her mother “I love You”. I am so heartbroken over this story and I truly believe that she is in a better place. I believe they were abusing long before her tragic death. The mother meets this sicko online and then moves in with him. This doesn’t say alot for her. Riley never had a chance. I just wish that the world would wake-up. Too many children are being abused and killed everyday. As mothers, you have to make good sound decisions. Because it will affect your children. I can’t stop crying because it is so terrible, I can’t even imagine this poor little baby going through the most horrifying death from the ones that she trusted. I hope they both rot in jail the parents. And too bad, the stepfather was unsucssful in killing himself. Because once you get to prison its a whole new ball game. Especially if your there for hurting or killing a child. They will get what they deserve. May God bless Riley and may she rest in peace and watch over the ones who loved her the most. She is with us in spirit along with Jesus in a better life. We love you Riley.
Poor little girl. I could not wait to go home and hug my son who is around her age, when I heard about this story. It breaks my heart and brain to understand this type of behvior from any parent. I think they should take the parents out to where the sharks are and let them be eaten alive!
