Is there any punishment fit for this crime

I am looking at this screen literally through tears as I write this post. I do not see how this woman could harm this little boy. If she is convicted, which is very possible, she could receive the death penalty. Franklin County District Attorney Joey Rushing would not have charged this woman with capital murder, if he didn't have good evidence. We at the Shoals Insider are grieved. We do not understand this tragedy. How can this happen here?

She is entitled to a fair trial. We are hoping on hope that his woman did not commit this monstrous act.

What kind of monster could burn their own child up in a house for money?

This precious child, Mason Scott, could have very possibly been taken from this world for the want of money.

Please join us in prayer for this child's father and family. Please join us in prayer for the judge and jury and prosecutor that will have to handle this case. We also pray for Christie Scott. May the truth come out and conclusively find her innocent or guilty. Either way the community has been hard hit. Her family, the father's family, all involved, and the Russellville community have suffered a great loss

We in the Shoals Area have been hit hard this week by two tragedies. First, the loss of Jennifer Lee Hampton in Knoxville, Tennessee. Now, the senseless loss of this little boy.

Our hats off to the law enforcement agencies that have arrested the suspects.

We have thrown journalistic objectivity out the window on this one. We are human too.
