In response to Tanya's post, I mainly agree with everything except when you said that the baby just died. Although Paulus was said to be not guilty, there was evidence that made me think he was guilty. I found it suspicious that he just walked in the hut with the baby two days later after he already saw it and left again. Then, just a little later it died. Also, Paulus had a reason to kill the baby because he didn't want the shame of having a mixed baby so he just ended it there.
