To Obese For Prison

Texas officials have run into a rather large problem. Mayra Lizbeth Rosales is accused of killer her two year old nephew, but the officials can not get her jail, or court for that matter. The problem is that she weighs around 1,000 pounds. The accused is bed ridden from her weight and can not get through her front door.

"A woman is accused of killing her two-year-old nephew but prosecutors in Texas do not yet know how to get her to jail and court — because she weighs nearly half a ton.

...

The morbidly obese woman has since been photographed and finger-printed at home but released on a "personal recognizance bond" because of the logistics problem.

The local sheriff at Hidalgo County, Lupe Trevino, says it would be impossible to keep her in jail pending her trial because she needs extensive medical care.
