The mother and grandmother of a 9-year-old girl have been charged with murder after the she died from a severe lice infection.

Sandra Kraykovich, 38, and 64-year-old Elizabeth Kraykovich, the mother and grandmother of the unidentified child have been arrested in Arizona and charged with first-degree murder, LawandCrime.com reported.

The pair were arrested for child abuse after emergency personnel responded to their Tucson home on March 22 and found the girl unresponsive with 'a large amount of bugs on her face,' court documents said.

Emergency personnel told investigators that 'upon closer inspection it was discovered that there was an enormous amount of lice in her hair'.

Authorities say text messages prove the girl's mother was aware she was ill but did not seek medical care because of the lice.

During an interview with police, Sandra said her daughter suffered from anemia, vomiting, fever, headaches, and had trouble keeping her balance.

Warning before you click, both mom and grandma look like that comedian that died about ten years back. Can remember his name Sam something..

Sam Kinison...and you are right. They do look like him.

Heartbreaking. So many children in the hands of monsters. So sad.

Grandma looks like she could use a plastic bag over her head to keep the lice contained.

The child never had a chance.

[...] that comedian that died about ten years back. Can remember his name Sam something.

Sam Kinison (Dec. 8, 1953 – April 10, 1992).

So more like more than THIRTY years back.

Despite her boyfriend tell her to take the sick girl to the hospital, Sandra refused, police said.

Written by a journalist who graduated "40th in his class" (from a class of 42 students) from the Punjabi Academy of Journalism?

I honest believe English is not the first language of a lot of these DM reporters.

Just horrible. She has two other daughters that had lice infestations when the authorities arrived. They were taken to stay with other relatives. Honestly, I don’t have much faith in any family related to these two women.

SMH because I’m baffled by it

[Morgana]

I know lice means you just dirty

Express line to the electric chair. They will never breed again.

So if a jury fine them guilty of murder could they impose a penalty of death by lice infestation?

[Nifster]

No it doesn’t.

Both of them must have worn a bag over their heads in order to reproduce.
