Mansor gets life in prison for killing 11-week-old son

HILLSBORO, Ore. – A Tigard man convicted of murdering his 11-week-old son was sentenced to life in prison with the possibility of parole after 27 years.
Kaliq Mansor called 911 in June 2011 to get help for his son Bryan, who had stopped breathing. He was later charged and convicted of abusing and killing the boy after prosecutors said the story he gave didn’t add up.
Mansor, 34, was sentenced two weeks after jurors found him guilty of murder, murder by abuse, assault and criminal mistreatment. Some of the charges stem from abuse of Bryan's twin brother, Ethan, who survived.
As part of the investigation, detectives seized Mansor's computer and checked his Internet search history.
Mansor's Google searches three days before Bryan went to hospital included terms such as "afraid of abusing my baby," ''how do I deal with screaming baby," ''Oregon child abuse laws" and "father hates infant."
Defense attorney Russell Barnett argued during the trial that Mansor's Internet history represented his curiosity, not proof of criminal conduct. He said he plans to appeal the conviction.
"Mr. Mansor has a lifetime to think about what he has done, a lifetime to think about the family he has destroyed, that he lost and that he does not deserve to be a part of," said Angie Foster, Mansor's ex-wife and mother of the two boys."
Foster told the judge she wanted Mansor to get the longest possible sentence. Judge Don Letourneau also expressed disdain for Mansor.
"He lied miserably, boldly and repeatedly on the stand," Letourneau said.
Foster recently spoke at great length with KATU about dealing with her tragedy. You can read more about her story here.
During his sentencing on Friday morning, Mansor said he would spend his time in prison mentoring and teaching other inmates. He said he has already been doing that while in the Washington County Jail awaiting his sentencing.
"I plan to continue this work as I move on because I believe a life with purpose is a life with meaning," Mansor said.

Mr. Mansor and his entire family have no conscience. Even after Mr. Mansor's conviction, his family continues to act like he is the victim. In fact, they are aggressively fighting the mother in family law court. These idiots seem to think that Mr. Mansor will have so-called "parenting" rights with his surviving son. And that bringing his 19-month-old child to prison to visit his sperm donor is in his best interest. They also believe that the mother has no claim to the small amount of money that Mr. Mansor has left. She will never get child support from him and yet his brother and mother think that they and Mr. Mansor deserve his money instead of his surviving son. If he is killed in prison, no one but his immediate family will be sad.
alright.... now just got done reading the article on the woman that got 99 yrs for gluing her toddlers hand to the wall for punishment..... That baby is fine nothing brutal happened.... now he gets less time then she did and he killed his son..... i am soo effing confused right now.....
plus im not saying the lady shouldnt be punished im just saying that maybe alittle leeway... like 5-10yrs.... this guy.. eff this guy...
I'm surprised he didn't use the Koran as an excuse. Pretty sure that book allows men to do just about anything violent that they see fit. Hope he has an untimely accident before he can begin his campaign of conversion and indoctrination. Muslims in prison, especially psychopathic ones, are usually quite good at that.
I sincerely hope this guiy does not survive in prison long enough to even begin thinking about parole.
 @I812 there will be no way he will make it out..... trust me when he does get shanked u wont hear about it over the news.....
To me, to cause through deliberate action, the harm or death of a child is unconscionable. Children are innocent and totally dependent upon adults to care for them, and the betrayal of that trust is the most despicable action a human being can perform.
I have never understood this kind of violence against helpless infants. Never will.
I hope they put him in with the general population and pass the word around as to what he did. Maybe we won't have to support him for life.
maybe there will be a clerical mistake and he will be placed in the general prison population.
 @QT3.14159 ohh he will get sent to gen pop anyway... at least untill he goes to protective custody.... but even then he wont be safe.....
The possibility of parole does not fit the unspeakable crime of killing your 11 week old child. The thought of him counseling others or being any sort of a mentor is a joke.
Pure evil. Â Just look at that scowl.
and look at all the other flunkies behind him waiting for their turn to be sentenced. Â Bunch of a-social losers.Â
With the liberal legal system here in the NW this guy will most likely be back on the streets by , OH WAIT, is that him walking down the street now, looking for yet another baby to kill. Â He should get a life sentence that lasts about a hour and a half , then take him behind the court house and shoot him dead starting at his toes.
@onceagain No, it is not the "liberal" legal system. Think about it you spam-for-brains mook. Liberals would be liberal with the sentencing, i.e. life in solitary. Conservative thinking would say "oh geez... he can be rehabilitated". Get it straight! It's a conservative world, worried about losing that conservative manner of thought that is the problem in this day and age...
i think they should put earphones on him and have him listen to fox news twenty four seven. That's real revenge.
@pattypepper That's cruel, unusual, and inhumane torture! Though, I think that would be a pretty good punishment in prison.
Scumbag!!!
THey should put manson on a rope
Not sure what he could teach them that they don't already know.
@xilef regnu Maybe teach them that you don't beat an 11 week old baby.......naw, that's too complicated of a lesson to learn.
Probably true, but he will probably explain where he went wrong, and how next time not to get caught! If at first you don't succeed, then try, try, again?
