« U.S. Education Secretary is coming to town | Today | Traffic Alert: Disabled truck on 195 » February 15, 2008Woman accused of killing her baby's father remains in jailThe bail hearing for a 21-year-old Cranston woman accused of stabbing the father of her child to death has been postponed. Pawtucket police say on Feb. 1, Misty Ospina was dropping off her infant son at Richard Gibson’s house when the two got into an argument. Ospina allegedly grabbed a knife and stabbed the 22-year-old Gibson, according to police. Two 911 calls were made – one form a resident of the house, at 19 Thornston St., and another from someone who had been with Ospina, according to Police and the Attorney General’s office. Ospina told police that Gibson had punched her in the face four times and choked her, according to a prosecutor. But, Pawtucket police said they did not see any marks on Ospina that were consistent with being hit. She has been at the Adult Correctional Facilities since her arrest, Feb. 2. Today’s scheduled hearing was postponed as Ospina, whose case had been referred to the public defender’s office, gets a private lawyer. -- projo.com staff writer Brandie M.

Misty deserves to be treated fairly and with respect for her circumstance. A lot of the media portray her as a cold blooded killer with no heart. The law needs to take an inward look at how we treat "criminals". As an American society, we are supposed to be proven guilty, before we are presumed to be. I would like to extend my deepest sympathy to both families, and send a special prayer out to them all. Especially the young daughter who is in the middle of it all.
