Did you see this? Unbelievable

Child found in oven died of heat injuries: 3-year-old boy's mother charged with murder, held on a $5 million bond
The boy apparently had a head injury. A pathologist is trying to discover if he were conscious when placed in the electric oven. The little girl who was found in the home has been placed with protective services. But the woman's twin sister says, 'She was a great parent, a good person. We don't know what's wrong. We don't know what happened. Do not sit there and call her a bad mom cause that's not what she is.'

Mental illness, maybe? Substance abuse? I don't know. But I do know one thing--something was definitely wrong in that household, something seriously out of kilter, and a boy is dead because of it.
