Rusk County Mobile Home Burns

HENDERSON — The State Fire Marshal’s Office has been asked to assist in determining the cause of a mobile home fire. The home on County Road 2125 was destroyed by a Wednesday morning blaze. The mobile home was a crime scene a couple of years ago.

It was in that home that 13-month-old Amora Carson was beaten to death as a couple tried to remove demons from the child during an exorcism in December, 2008. A forensic pathologist, Dr. Keith Pinckard of the Southwest Institute of Forensic Sciences, said the little girl suffered a long list of injuries. He told of numerous broken bones, lacerations of her brain and liver and severe tears to her sexual organs. He said the potentially fatal injuries were so numerous that he couldn’t determine a specific cause of death.

The baby’s mother, Jessica Carson, remains in the Rusk County Jail pending her trail. The woman’s boyfriend, Blaine Milam, 20, was convicted of capital murder four months ago. His trail was moved from Henderson to Conroe on a change of venue.
