A western Michigan woman is accused of setting a house fire that killed her 12-year-old daughter who was trapped in a bedroom.
"This is a shockingly cruel, unimaginable crime committed by a mom against her three kids," Grand Rapids Police Chief Eric Winstrom said.
Shamiya Stewart died Monday night, two days after the fire in Grand Rapids. Two other children, ages 7 and 10, survived.
Winstrom said the 46-year-old mother removed seven smoke detectors from the house and poured lighter fluid before setting the fire. She was outside when police arrived.
Screams from inside the house "will live on in our heads for the rest of our lives," Fire Chief Brad Brown said Monday.
Roconda Singleton appeared in court Tuesday on arson and child abuse charges. She doesn't have a lawyer yet, and a not guilty plea was entered by a judge. Additional charges are likely.

When niggers scream as they burn, do they sound liked lobsters being boiled alive? I wouldn't be able to forget, either, because I'd be laughing so hard.
A Grand Rapids mother has pleaded not guilty to charges tied to a house fire that she intended to die in with her three daughters "so they could be free."
Singleton, upon arriving at Grand Rapids Police HQ for questioning, told officers her life took a turn in August 2024. She had been suffering from mental health problems and was unable to find any help, documents showed.
When asked what happened, Singleton told officers "I do not know," adding that she tried to save her children and burnt her face.
However, the mother of three admitted to starting the fire, telling officers "I am not going to sit here and play like I am the victim."
