What is wrong with this world?

Two young women—one of them five months pregnant and the other a criminal justice student—have been accused of beating an 82-year-old woman with a wrench and robbing her house in Springfield, Oregon.

The women forced their way through the back door of the elderly woman's house as she was preparing for her grandson's birthday party.

Notwithstanding the weirdness and twisted irony of a pregnant woman and a criminal justice student beating an elderly woman, how can one even begin to fathom such darkness, let alone illuminate it?
