The little girl was asleep inside the home when the mother set it on fire.

Ghastly, to do that to your own family. The accused doesn't really look "all there" in that booking photo

I don’t know if she talked or what but I don’t get why she would have left a child anyway. Not to mention the fire.

According to the jail log she has been denied bond.

I was hoping for some kind of update or statement on this today. The bond hearing will go to a higher court and maybe more facts will be presented then.
This is the most horrific thing that I’ve ever heard of if proven.

Still very little info on this but I was surprised and saddened to see a fundraiser for the victims headstone and the mother, who is charged with her murder, is featured in an etched image on the stone. She also put the fundraiser online at the go fund site.

Bumping to report nothing so far. Courts are so slow.

This is supposed to be on the docket but I'm not seeing it on local news, which there is little in the area.
