State says dads equally guilty in freezer deaths case

Article here. Excerpt:

'A state attorney told the fathers of Mitchelle Blair's children they are just as responsible for the abuse, torture and death of the children whose bodies were found in March because they abandoned and deserted them.

Kelli Megyesi said Alexander Dorsey and Stephen Berry are "trying to pass the buck" for their roles in the tragedy.

Dorsey and Berry sat quietly during the tongue lashing from Megyesi during the conclusion Tuesday of a hearing about whether the parental rights should be terminated for Blair and the two men. All three are seeking rights over Blair's two surviving children, an 8-year-old boy and a 17-year-old daughter.

"They should feel guilty," she said. "They should feel culpable because they are."

Adam Devlin, Dorsey's attorney, said he reported in 2005 injuries to his daughter he suspected Blair of causing. Devlin said Dorsey also tried to see his children but was restricted by Blair to remain on the porch when he came to visit.

Laura Anderson, who represents Berry, said her client had a relationship with his sons and that he "never saw Ms. Blair being abusive to the children"

Anderson blamed Child Protective Services for not following up on investigations in 2002 and 2005 involving referrals for possible child neglect and abuse by Blair.'
