Mother of Young Child Found Dead on Texas Beach Indicted

7 August 2018

A grand jury has indicted the mother of a 4-year-old boy whose naked body was found on a Texas beach last year.

The Galveston County grand jury on Tuesday indicted 34-year-old Rebecca Rivera on a count of injury to a child causing serious bodily injury and also on a count of tampering with physical evidence.

Rivera was arrested on the tampering charge in June and has since been held at the Galveston County jail on a $250,000 bond.
 
Looks like the Court is going to dismiss the tampering with evidence charge according to the court site.

Why is there no "Hard Labor" convictions anymore? Why do we convict then feed cloth and entertain perpetrators ?

I'm guessing that it is "cruel" nowadays to put prisoners into "hard labor" like road gangs... :rolleyes:
