Prayers for all the family members.

Lisa Montgomery, if found guilty of this heinous crime, should be put to death. But considering the fact she is female, that isn't likely to happen.

"The motive for the crime remained unknown, investigators said. Local media in Kansas City reported that Montgomery had suffered an earlier miscarriage.


Agents who made the arrest said Montgomery had told her husband, Kevin, that she had unexpectedly given birth."

Hokay! All you legal eagles. We have a novel defense in the making. Post-miscarriage psychosis. From now on any woman suffering the psychological effects of miscarriage will be absolved of any heinous outrage she might happen to commit immediately afterward.

Unbelievable evil on this planet these days. At least with a confession we won't have to have a 'peterson' style trial repeat.

Prayers for baby and all her family.

[E. Pluribus Unum]

I have been annoyed by waves of innane Amber alerts in the past, but I have to admit that it seems to have worked this time.

God bless this poor family.

Rest in peace, Bobbie Jo Stinnett.

The woman was eight-months pregnant when discovered in a pool of blood by her mother, Becky Harper. Investigators said Harper "noted it appeared as though her daughter's stomach had exploded."

I hope they have a death penalty there in Missouri....

Poor mother discovering the crime, and poor family. I'll keep them in my prayers.

Agents who made the arrest said Montgomery had told her husband, Kevin, that she had unexpectedly given birth.

 Her husband SHOULD have turned her in.

[Jaded]

They'd do it in Texas.

[Halls]

I can see that happening! We live in a sick world. I hope this women gets the death penalty for what she has done! She deserve no mercy or understanding!

[William of Orange]

unbelievable, never heard of a crime like this before. I recommend the death penalty but some liberal professor will find a way to turn this woman into the victim.

[CTOCS]

DNA tests pending?

What's up with that?

Were they not living together as a couple??

Enquiring minds, and all that......

WTFO?

Honey, the strangest thing happened to me today. I was doing the ironing and suddenly got this terrible pain in my belly. All of a sudden, a baby dropped right out of my womb! Can you believe it? Of course we have to keep it!

Judas Priest, this woman is nuttier than Squeaky Frome

[Joe Hadenuf]

They'd do it in Texas.

They would? I seem to recall a Texas woman that chased her own kids around the house, drowning all 5 of them, some in the toilet. Texas didn't give here death.

[annyokie]

Sadly, it happened here in Oklahoma last year. There are many case studies about these types of crimes in psychiatric literature.

bttt

[TheDon]

I'd give her the death penalty and let God sort it out. He's much more able and qualified to make such determinations.

And we wouldn't want to annoy you now would we. That has got to be one of the most selfish statements I have ever seen on this forum.

[Let's Roll]

I think it's a "chain of evidence" type of thing.

The nutburger said she killed Mrs. Stinnett and took her baby but what if that baby died sometime before the police took custody of a baby from nutburger?

And crazy woman grabbed another baby out of a grocery shopping cart or something right before she called her husband - very unlikely but just better to tie up all loose ends since there were no Stinnett baby footprints on file at a hospital anywhere, but I bet there will be soon if not already.

[reformed_dem]

I believe the DNA tests are to prove that the baby is, in fact, the child of that couple and not perhaps someone else's.
