“Good to know”

Hall told investigators that she does not communicate with the victim. She said she checks on him randomly and determines if he may need something by his facial expressions. Hall also told investigators said that she knows when the victim is hungry because he will chew on his hands. Is she a sociopath? Brain damaged? If she didn't want to care for her son, why didn't she leave him at one of the many facilities that will find a decent home for him?

Money was never the issue. Food is provided free to poor women and children.

If it is the same as in GA she gets a bump in her welfare for the kid. There has to be more to it than that, but that may be the story.

I assume that most poor, unmarried women see an increase in their benefits when they have a child. However, most of them don’t do this ... for five years. This woman is seriously loo-loo.

Not sure about that.

I would disagree on that point. Plenty of white girls who are just as bad. In fact, my first thought was that this was a white girl
