FAIRFIELD (CBS13) – A defense attorney is fighting to throw out the case against two Fairfield mothers facing charges after their four small children burned to death.

Latisha and Shetarra James were in court this morning.

Their trial is scheduled to begin next week, but Sheterra’s attorney filed a motion to dismiss the charges because of misconduct by the prosecution.

The judge did not agree.

The sisters were arrested after investigators said they left their kids alone with an unattended candle that started a fire in their apartment.

Oh please, lets not have another Casey Anthony going on here. They are guilty of leaving their kids and the place caught fire. They were using a candle because they couldn’t afford electricity. Why weren’t they out working. Or were they using whatever money they had on drugs and alcohol? Why are these women still allowed to eventually become pregnant again? Mandatory sterilization. Come on ACLU and NAACP. I am sure you will say”It is their right”. Bulls–t. They gave up their right when they brought kids into the world that they can’t take care of.

They need to be charged with child endangerment or negligence if anything. Sad story.

I need details, what was the misconduct by the prosecution?

Minimum, they should be jailed for child abuse and neglect. Intentionally or not, 4 babies died that day and their moms were not there to save them.

Why is that whenever Blacks kill their kids everyone wants the book thrown at them? But u have trash like that white broad, who purposely killed her kid, so she could club, and no one says anything…Hmmmm

obvious troll is obvious your statement is false on the face of it..nice try race bating though. I dont know of a single white person besides the idiot jurors who think that “white broad” didnt kill her kid and deserves life in prison or worse.

Welcome to the internet. Everyone hates that “white Broad”. Baby killers are baby killers, you go ahead and support then if their black, I on the other hand think they deserve to be locked up no matter what color their skin.
