EDINBURG, Texas (AP) -- Prosecutors are trying to decide how to jail and
bring to court a nearly half-ton, bedridden woman accused of killing her
2-year-old nephew.
A grand jury indicted Mayra Lizbeth Rosales, 27, on Thursday on one count
of first-degree murder and on one count of injury to a child in the death
of Eliseo Gonzalez Jr. She previously had been charged with capital murder.
Rosales weighs nearly 1,000 pounds and cannot fit through a door to leave
her home, leaving prosecutors wondering how to bring her to court. As of
Thursday evening, she was not in custody.
Hidalgo County Sheriff Lupe Trevino said that holding her at the county
jail for her trial would be impossible because she needs extensive medical
care.
"She would die," Trevino said in Thursday's online edition of The Monitor
in McAllen.
The grand jury indicted Rosales after an autopsy confirmed investigators'
suspicions that the child died March 18 because he had been struck.
Investigators believe that the toddler was struck at least twice, crushing
his head.
Authorities recommended that Rosales' bail be set at $150,000.
The boy's mother, Jaime Rosales, was charged with injury to a child because
she is accused of leaving her son alone with his aunt. Her bail has been
set at $100,000.

Hehe! That and a hell of a lot more. I don't believe this story
though. I have never heard of any human weighing that much. five
hundred to seven hundred yes, but not nine hundred and up.
don't forget this is a Mexican, probably getting Federal Aid, and mucho
food stamps, free medical and snacks.
I thought it might be Kris Baker when I read the line
Sounds a lot like Bobbi Sanchez.
Setting bail seems to be a moot point, since they don't know how to
handle her in jail.
BUT - the thing thats being ignored is that she violently KILLED a child.
Doesn't matter how fat - or thin - she is - she killed a child. That seems
to have been forgotten.

I think she should be charged with murder, also. You don't leave a
2-year-old with someone who is clearly incapable of caring for the child.
Even if the aunt hadn't deliberately done something to cause injury, a
NEGLECTED (this boy was definitely neglected) 2-year-old can easily find a
way to die within seconds. -Dave
The fault falls squarely on the mother of the victim. What competent
parent leaves their two year old child in the care of an incapacitated
babysitter? And what was so important that this so-called mother had
to leave her two year old in the care of this bedridden monster? Maybe
the media should scrutinize that issue a little more and worry about
the logistics of moving this woman a little less.
As I see it the whole situation is fucked. On one hand you have an
individual growing to incredibly enormous proportions on what is most
likely public assistance and on the other a mother of a child that
doesn’t have brain one when it comes to parental responsibility.
Obviously this is an extreme case of child neglect and it probably
wasn’t the first dangerous situation this child was placed in its
young life. There are so many fucked up issues surrounding this case,
the alleged murders size being only one of them that most people
wouldn’t even know where to start.

That makes no sense. You can take two children to the dentist, even if only
one has an appointment. -Dave

This reminds me of the TV show "Monk". The "whale" who weighs 700 pounds
and has his own apartment in the sf jail :)
Not a valid excuse. It's probably just a bullshit alibi because as a
rule dentists usually don’t sell meth. It's probably more like she was
going out to party or get high.

> Toddlers are difficult to take anywhere.
And the USA is full of "loving parents" who don't want to be bothered by
their own children. I'm a parent, I know how much a pain in the ass a
toddler can be, and I wouldn't trade in those years for anything.
Where was the father? Does she even know who it is?

>Prison food will do her some good. Just saying.
If she did it-then maybe so. If it is the case I am thinking of, she
could not even get off the bed. How could she have killed anyone?
Oh wait. she is fat so of course she did it...
isn't that what the idiots think?

LOL!!! I don't own a vial of anything. Learn to read and spell, then
come back to see me. Then I will slap you again.
You should not call anyone name unless they actually do something to
warrant it. The poster was just commenting that prison food is
unappetizing and that she will be losing weight.
Besides, I have never been to Paris and turned down the chance to go
in the service.

Well you certainly can't get it right yet.
