Jeez, conficted twice now and still no death penalty
It would seem from the article the reporter was trying to invent excuses for
this POS. When will people get it that bein drunk can never be an excuse or
justification for what one does while in this state? Drunk, sober, wacked out
of your mind on drugs or whatever, ones actions are still ones own and why
anyone would feel someone's less accountable because of it totally evades any
logical train of thought imaginable.
The bottom line to the whole discussion is an infant was killed and someone is
responsible for it, and as such deserves punishment. The only real question
that should remain is whom exactly is responsible and what should be the proper
punishment

But she's black, are you racist? You say she's guilty but it's obvious she's
black so she was framed by "Tha Man". Black people get such a bad rap,
no pun intended, it's the media that's to blame, if they'd stop reporting all
the killing, raping and stealing that black people do maybe people wouldn't
think the way they do about us. Wait till obama gets elected..... then it's on,
we gonna be in charge whitey. All you crackas can kiss my black ass u racist
mofos.

^^^^ Might I suggest a good brush up on literary interpretation skills ^^^^
I never said she was guilty, though I did mention she's already been convicted
twice now of this crime.
By your logic, it's "the media" that makes black people criminals huh?
Sorry dude, that ship won't float. Criminals are criminals by their actions
regardless of their skin tone. And, just in case you're confused (which seems
obvious) imaginary crimes aren't reported in the media, so the ones we see, hear
and read about are real, at least most of the time.
My thoughts about someone treatin an 1 mo. old infant like a fuckin cheeseburger
they picked up at 7-11 are the same, no matter what age, skin color or
nationality they are. If you harm or kill a defenseless infant
THAT makes you a worthless POS who
deserves to be punished for your crime, end of story!
There's no need to even mention anything about the persons background or mental
state to me from that point as it's totally irrelevent once they have been duly
tried, and especaily once they've been convicted not once, but twice

MrKim, might I suggest that your response was either exactly what the previous
poster was after, or alternatively a typically American response to sarcasm
(i.e. most American's do not 'get' sarcasm). (That is not a complaint or being
anti-American, by the way, just an observation.)
I agree completely with your comment that somebody should be held responsible
and punished for this. While it is true that consuming alcohol or drugs can
make you do things you wouldn't normally do or make you seem 'out of control',
given that she has twice been convicted of this before she was aware of that
fact and yet did so again without appropriate safeguards in place. If she is
guilty (please note I did say 'if') she should have the book thrown at her as,
in my opinion, she is responsible!

Thanks for your observation GAK and no offense was taken I assure you.
Honestly, I was unsure if the previous post was written tongue-in-cheek by the
poster, but in this realm of words plastered on a screen it can be difficult to
ascertain such things with any degree of sureity, so I chose to simply shoot
from the hip in my reply.
BTW, this person was convicted twice for the same crime, not 2 previous
instances of this type crime

Life in prison for mum in microwave-baby case
SMH, September 9, 2008 - 6:18AM
A mother who burned her baby daughter to death in a microwave oven was sentenced
to life in prison without the chance for parole.
China Arnold, 28, opted not to be in the Ohio courtroom when Montgomery County
Common Pleas Judge Mary Wiseman announced her decision.
The US judge rejected a plea by Arnold's defense lawyers for a minimum sentence
of life in prison with the chance of parole after 25 years.
A jury last week spared Arnold the death penalty when it couldn't reach a
consensus.
Arnold was convicted on August 29 of aggravated murder in the death of month-old
Paris Talley.
Prosecutors said Arnold intentionally put her baby in the microwave oven after a
fight with her boyfriend.
The couple had argued over whether the boyfriend was the biological father.
It was Arnold's second trial. The first ended in a mistrial when new witnesses
surfaced.
Defense lawyer Jon Paul Rion has asked for a third trial, saying a former
cellmate who said Arnold confessed has now changed her story.

Yeah great .... she gets to live out her life at our expense for any number of
years. Three square meals a day, free clothing, health care, dental care, cable
Tv, and on and on and on. What a waste of resources on someone so chickenshit
she wouldn't even face the judge for her sentencing for the incomprehensible
crime of having burned her own child to death.
She's been tried and duly convicted of murdering a helpless infant and deserves
to receive the same. Death by hanging, a firing squad or electrocution don't
even come close to what she should be gettin, but life in prison ... what a
total miscarriage of justice
I can't even envision the type of sociopathic makeup one has to have to be
capable of such a heinous act against ones own child, nor can I see how allowing
her to draw even one more breath is going to be beneficial to anyone in our
society. Even a death by lethal injection is far better than she's due
