Mom found guilty of fatally shoving Crucifix down daughter’s throat

An Oklahoma woman was found guilty of beating her daughter and shoving a crucifix and medallion down her throat, ultimately leading to her death. She was convicted of first-degree murder Thursday after going through a trial.


The suspect identified as Juanita Martinez Gomez, 51, was convicted of killing her daughter, Geneva Gomez, 33.

According to a report in the Oklahoman, the jurors sought a life sentence without the possibility of parole for Gomez. Reports also state that as soon as the verdict was out, Gomez did not even show a little glimmer of emotion.

The assistant district attorney, Suzanne Lavenue said about the verdict, "We think it was a just verdict. It was an incredibly heinous murder. The victim suffered quite a bit before her life was ended. The crime scene was horrific. It was obvious that there'd been an extensive struggle all over the house," Fox News reported.

"She hit her daughter over and over and over. Geneva Gomez was fighting for her life," Lavenue told the jury. According to a report in the Oklahoman, Lavenue said that Gomez was the one who staged the exorcism so that authorities would think she had a mental illness or was insane.

What is it with religion. Many hide behind this to hurt or kill others.

I hope the woman never comes out of prison.

Bloody hell, just when you think you've heard it all.
