MARYVILLE, Mo. -- Authorities Friday arrested a woman they allege came to the home of an eight-months-pregnant woman _ purportedly to buy a dog _ then strangled her and cut the baby from her womb. Authorities found the abducted infant in good health, ending a day of frantic searching.

According to a federal criminal complaint, Lisa M. Montgomery admitted she strangled Bobbie Jo Stinnett and took her baby. The complaint also said Montgomery lied to her husband about giving birth, although U.S. Attorney Todd Graves declined to give a motive for the crime.

Stinnett's mother found the 23-year-old nearly dead Thursday in her northwest Missouri home. Paramedics tried to revive her, but she was pronounced dead at a hospital.

Skidmore was also the scene in 1981 of a murder witnessed by 45 people. The crime has never been solved. The 'vicitm' was the town bully. Court TV has some info on this crime.

And this is a good book - also became a movie.

3. No need for the death penalty

just send her to Skidmore to meet with the townspeople. They can take care of her like they took care of their bully in 1981.

7. CP is degrading to us, as a society.

It should be consigned to history's trash heap, alongside the rack and the wheel.
