Porche Wright’s grandmother has chimed in to defend her, saying she is suffering from depression. Maybe she is, but to be a valid reason, she should have already been diagnosed with depression. Personally, I think that the family is going to say that to get sympathy for Porche Wright. Being depressed does not mean you are homicidal. She also had to think about what she was doing as she had to get access to the gasoline. It appears to me that the grandmother (and great-grandmother) was more worried about Porche than the daughter, Taylor. I do hope Taylor heals well, both physically and emotionally. She has a long road ahead of her.

Look at that sweet little face. I cannot fathom how a parent can harm or allow harm happen to their children. Brittany Cherokee Dawn Bell is charged with child neglect, not murder, because the medical examiner was unable to determine exactly how the baby died. This is not rare. It does happen. I do hope that there is real justice in this case. This ‘mother’ did not even appear remorseful for her baby dying. From all that I read, she is a real poor example of a mother. Apparently she is a heavy drug user, which would cloud any judgment she may have had, if any. And she actually tried to blame this on her 18-month-old twins. Her other children have been taken away, thankfully.
