La Joya woman faces capital murder charge and the child's mother is in jail, accused of not protecting him from her sister

LA JOYA — A morbidly obese woman, who authorities say killed her 2½ -year-old nephew with two blows to the head, has been charged with capital murder.

Mayra Lizbeth Rosales, who weighs at least 800 pounds, was arrested and arraigned in her La Joya bedroom Wednesday morning for the death of Eliseo Gonzalez Jr. The 27-year-old bedridden woman was photographed and fingerprinted at home before being released on a personal recognizance bond, Hidalgo County Sheriff Lupe Trevino said.

Jamie Lee Rosales, the boy's mother and Rosales' sister, was also arrested on a charge of injury to a child, accused of failing to protect the boy. She was being held on $50,000 bail.

The autopsy found multiple skull fractures on the forehead and upper and lower rear parts of Eliseo's skull. The autopsy also found fractures that were estimated to be about a month old, Trevino said.

Poor baby.  It's no telling what this innocent babe went through at the hands of a neglectful mother and this horrid woman.  He's with the angels, cared for and loved for all eternity.   :bawl:

ROR?? WTF?

I guess murder of a child isn't that big of a deal.

This is so sad!  :bawl: There is nothing I hate more, then evil people hurting/killing innocent children. They don't deserve that.

Probably too much trouble to keep her locked up, they'd have to make some special arrangements for her size; and as TVDOC says, she's hardly a flight risk. If she's guilty she should be locked up for life on a diet of nutraloaf.

That's true -- at 800 lbs she has her own gravitational pull.  When they convict her I don't know how they will accommodate her.  Monk's Dale The Whale setup only exists on TV.

How heartbreaking. Just heartbreaking.

No, my friends, there’s only one really progressive idea. And that is the idea of legally limiting the power of the government. That one genuinely liberal, genuinely progressive idea — the Why in 1776, the How in 1787 — is what needs to be conserved. We need to conserve that fundamentally liberal idea. That is why we are conservatives. --Bill Whittle

That's horrible. Jails are cramp and will not be able to accomdate a morbidly obese person.

She doesn't deserve jail.  Give her a bag of milkyway bars each laced with a tiny bit of poison and let her eat herself to death. :bird:
