There were so many failures along the road which led to Carnel's murder. Those failures do not solely lay upon his mothers choice to stay with AB. There is a long list of those who failed, prior to Jaimee ever making the acquaintance of the man who has been charged with her sons murder.
I understand the anger at Jaimee, it is rightfully so. Ultimately she made the choice to leave Carnel alone with Bennett and she is responsible for that choice.
What I do not want to see happen is that anger directed at one person and diminishing the repeated failures along the way that led to it taking the murder of a child to lock this dangerous unusual person up. I can't find one credible reason why Bennett shouldn't have been locked up and the key thrown away long before he ever had the opportunity to meet Jaimee and Carnel. And in that sense a great many people failed Carnel.
