I can see how this grandmother turned mother was heartbroken over the loss of two sons — one died in Iraq in a dispute over alcohol, not as a casualty of war —and possibly suffering from depression, or worse. I can't see how you think killing your 7-year-old granddaughter/daughter in such a horrible way as BEING BURNED ALIVE is better than "leaving her behind."
She did try and ease the girls pain a bit by STABBING HER IN THE CHEST (???) before she torched their house. Unfortunately, it was not enough to kill her before the smoke and flames overtook her. The 63-year-old mean mom left a note, keys to her house, her will and other personal effects that she thought were worth being found on and in her truck, so she had obviously planned this for a while.
I just don't get the selfishness of taking this little girl with her on her journey to hell. Finding her a decent place to live, possibly with a more loving and less effed up relative, would have been the way to go instead of subjecting her to this violent end.
