She explained away the injuries by saying she had slipped, landing with her right hand on Eliseo's head while trying to pick him off the floor, and that he fell off a chair.

But a post-mortem found that Eliseo's injuries were "consistent with blunt force trauma" and that Mayra Rosales' explanations were inconsistent with the injuries.

Regardless, humans have rights, even prisoners.

Lastly, since she is not in Louisiana, she is still innocent until proven guilty.

I'm kinda sad to see us go the way of Fark. I thought the commenters here still had half a brain.

Did she probably do it? Sure. Is she big? Yes. But blasting her this way does not help anyone. In fact, it makes me wonder what you'd say if you saw me walking down the street. But hey, pump up your low self-esteem a bit by putting down this person.

Look, I'm a large man, 252lbs, but this woman is four of me. Murder is murder, take her to jail in chunks if you have to.

Maybe cut her food supply way back, thats the only thing she obviously lives for.

Shes already chosen the death penalty. She'll be dead in a few years or so.

Also as has been said, who on earth leaves a kid with a morbid shut in?

Why not leave the kid with the neighbourhood paedophile? at least he'll be able to pay attention to the kid.

Wow... way to end it on a mean pun.
