Sammantha Allen, a 29 year old woman from Arizona, was sentenced to death Monday on First-degree murder and 4 counts of child abuse. What'd Sammantha do to deserve such a sentence you may ask? The answer is truly disturbing.
She and her husband, John Allen, forced her 10 year old cousin to be locked into a small, plastic storage box. This caused her death. They also forced her to crush aluminum cans barefoot, consume hot sauce, and even eat dog feces. This had been going on for quite awhile. Apparently it runs in the family because Allen's mother is serving close to a 30 year sentence on child abuse charges.
John Allen is yet to be sentenced, but he faces the death penalty as well. Arizona is having trouble carrying out executions because the drugs that are involved are no longer being sold by their creators.
What do you all think of the death penalty in general as a punishment? Let me know!
