Today near Fayetteville, someone broke into a elderly couples home, tied up the man, strapped a bomb to the woman's ankle and forced her to try and rob a local bank.

Yahoo news reports of an Arkansas woman who adopted her granddaughter after her son's death in Iraq stabbed the 7-year-old girl in the chest and then set fire to their home in an apparent murder-suicide.

Does this stuff go on everywhere or is it just in Arkansas?

They're all over the place. They're bred from Walmart?

Yeah, Walmart is a lot of whats wrong with this country. A lot of manufacturing companies have been and still being forced out of business because WalMart would rather buy the junk they sell from China. Walmart is a sore subject in this household. But some things we have to buy there.

Bert

I feel the same way about them, but as you say some things you have to buy there.

Well, they decided there is enough evidence to charge the 15 year old with murder. So far formal charges have not been filed, but they expect to file 1st degree murder charges as soon as the autopsy report comes in. A 1st degree conviction will carry 10 - 40 years with the possibility of life. Its a wonder their not seeking the death penalty in this state. He will be charged as a adult.

The story going around locally is that he shot her several times in the head with a handgun while she was sleeping.
