Mother Charged With Murdering Kids Says They Were 'Possessed by Demons'

[Lockguy3000]

As U.S. marshals armed with eviction papers began to clear out her town house, Benita Jacks sat on the steps leading to the upstairs bedrooms, intending to block their path, authorities said.

One managed to sidestep the 33-year-old woman and spotted the bodies of three children on the floor of an unfinished bedroom, prosecutors said Thursday. He then opened the door to another bedroom and found the body of a teenager on the floor of the bare room.

I wonder if this woman was religious

The article says that the woman had filed 3 paternity suits against three different men, so my guess is that she probably wasn't an active member of any church.

What does that have to do with being a church member?

she should have been stoned to death for that

Normally, if I was against the death penalty, I say lock her up.

Since I'm for it in a few cases, this is one of them.

I'd say she was nuts. There is most likely a religious affiliation somewhere in her family history, yet a woman with three children fathered by three men doesn't quite fit the devout persona.

That's the one bad thing about crazy people- they almost always tend to "get religion".

Hint,
If you want to kill your kids because they are possessed with demons/Devils. It just might be you, that is the one possessed, better to comit yourself(or even kill yourself) then kill the kids.

lock her in the mental word, and keep the demon/devil that has her life in prison too. Sorry, lady. God told me that you must suffer the same punishment so the devil doesn't win.

Someone asked if she was religious.
Generally speaking, when people ask that, they are really asking if she was a conservative Christian.

Given that she apparently slept with many men, the odds are high she wasn't the conservative Christian fundamentalist.

Religious or not, I think that anyone who leaves three bodies to rot in their own house for months and claims they were possessed is probably suffering from some sort of mental illness, which pretty much renders any of her beliefs moot.
