Karen McCarron ruled fit to stand trial

by Kristina Chew, PhD on November 7th, 2006

Dr. Karen McCarron has been ruled fit to stand trial on charges that she suffocated her 3-year-old daughter, Katherine McCarron, on May 13th. As reported by WJBC.com today, McCarron confessed to suffocating her daughter with a plastic bag. She has pleaded not guilty to the charges of “first-degree murder, obstructing justice and concealment of a homicidal death.”

We were honored to meet Katie’s grandfather, Mike McCarron, on October 27th at the Autism and Advocacy Conference and are thinking of him and his family tonight.

And of Katie, a “beautiful, precious, and happy” little girl.
