But Pittman is not charged in the slaying.

Sheriff’s Department spokesman Derrick Jackson said Pittman arrived with her attorney around 10:30 p.m. and did not make a statement. She will be arraigned today.

I read the deleted comments and did'nt find that much offensive on them.However,murder is a pretty big deal and its hard to say how someone would react in their given situation.So I would ask people to wait for the facts before judgement.If anyone knows about my comments they will know I have no symphothy whatsoever for criminals(along with my spelling grammer etc..)
