This is sad and really makes me want to cry and vomit. How many want to bet that She'll get probation and parenting classes for this, and whatever happened to that maternity "mom knows best" bias??????

An Oklahoma mother is behind bars after her youngest child, 5 months, was found dead and being eaten by roaches.
Brittany Cherokee Dawn Bell, 27, is facing child neglect charges after the disturbing January discovery that included cuts on the infant's thighs and face that were identified as bites, News on 6 reported.
The baby's equally heart-breaking and grisly fate reportedly followed Bell calling Bartlesville police on Jan. 8 to report her baby Alice as not breathing.
Though investigators say Bell at one point changed her story, they believe the infant had been left on the floor, just 10 feet from where Bell said she had fallen asleep on the couch.
During that time the baby somehow stopped breathing. The mother suggested as her final story that her 18-month-old twins may have smothered their younger sibling by sitting on her, investigators said.
Before Bell realized that her infant was dead, her tiny body was described as being relentlessly nibbled on by the crawling insects that had infested Bell's apartment.
