Okla. Mom Charged in Girl's Decapitation

KANSAS CITY, Mo. (AP) -- Four years after a little girl's headless body was found, police identified an Oklahoma woman as her mother and charged her Thursday in the murder of the child who became known as Precious Doe.

Police said it was the girl's stepfather who actually killed her with a kick to the head and then used hedge clippers to sever her head.

Michelle Johnson, of Muskogee, Okla., was charged with second-degree felony murder and endangerment of a child's welfare. Prosecutor Mike Sanders said more charges were "very likely in this case, very soon."

Police said it was a tip that let them identify Erica Michelle Maria Green, who was almost 4.

1. I remember seeing that story on A&E, what a sad tale. I'm glad it looks

like it's all been figured out though. May you Rest In Peace Erica Michelle Maria "Precious" Green.

As for the perpetrators, I'll refrain from posting my feelings about them.:grr:

2. I can't imagine the selfishness it takes to do that to a child....

I'm glad she has a name.
