Lady in cult starves baby to death. (believe, religion, devils)

[Haaziq]

A Maryland woman involved with a group described as a religious cult pleaded guilty in the starvation death of her son, but insisted that the charges be dropped when he is resurrected.

Ramkissoon and the others are accused of denying Javon food after the group's leader, a 40-year-old woman who goes by the name Queen Antoinette, decreed the boy was a demon since he refused to say "amen" after meals, Silverman said.
"Ria would cling to him every day and try to get him to say 'amen,' " Silverman said. Eventually, Queen Antoinette ordered that Ramkissoon be separated from the child, he said.

The baby was only a year old.

Just finished reading that on CNN. Religion's greatest appeal is the "carrot on the end of the stick" and if people buy into the "if you do this and that, you will receive or not receive this or that," they can do some amazingly incomprehensible things. Worse if they also believe in demons and devils as in this case.

I think the woman's statement was fair, and she should have it granted: that charges be dropped when her baby is resurrected. Until then, however, nothing that happens to her can be too severe.

Let's plan on having the charges dropped when her baby is resurrected. Until that happens, she stays in prison.

Sounds fair to me.
