There goes the inheritance.....
She's either psycho or that's years of bad blood spewing out. But, seriously, that's one low quality female.

That's really very sad. Mrs. Armstrong probably protected that nut case all along and this was what she got for it. That had to be one horrific beating. Absolutely, it's murder but watch, it will be negligent homicide or some other wimpy charge and she'll have lawyers making a field day of that "demon" excuse.

She has lived with her grandma since HS. The girl has no $$. So unless she gets a great public defender, she'll be behind bars for a very long time.
