Verna McClain stole a white baby to adopt it. Yeah right.

Verna McClain told her fiance she had given birth to their child. But after she suffered a miscarriage, authorities said, she went looking for another baby to present to him.

Now she's accused of killing a young mother to take one by force.

Investigators say McClain waited outside a pediatrician's office north of Houston and shot Kala Golden before taking her tiny newborn son, who was only 3 days old.

Little Keegan Golden was found unharmed hours later with McClain's sister – who was told that her sister planned to adopt the boy. He is back with family members.

McClain is charged with capital murder and was being held Wednesday without bond. Authorities say she admitted attacking the woman Tuesday and stealing her baby from his mother's pickup truck.

McClain, 30, who listed a Houston address, was separated from her husband, with whom she had raised three children.

"I don't understand that, her taking a child," her estranged husband, Theo McClain of San Diego, told The Associated Press. "That doesn't make sense. We have three kids. And then to shoot somebody? I've never known her to hurt anybody."

McClain had told her fiance she had given birth to their child. Instead, McClain had miscarried, said Capt. Bruce Zenor of the Montgomery County sheriff's office.

Her fianc�, who was not identified Wednesday, is being interviewed by authorities.

Sheriff Tommy Gage said 28-year-old Kala Golden had placed Keegan into her pickup truck Tuesday afternoon after leaving Northwoods Pediatric Center in Spring, about 20 miles north of Houston. The suspected shooter was parked next to her, Gage said.

The woman repeatedly shot Golden, then snatched the child from her truck and drove away, according to witness accounts. The dying woman leaned into the vehicle and tried to take the boy back, screaming, "My baby!" but her attacker sped off.

Later Tuesday, two detectives spotted a vehicle outside a nearby apartment complex that matched witnesses' descriptions, Gage said. Though McClain's apartment was empty, she showed up and talked to authorities.

During an interview, detectives learned of a residence in Harris County where McClain's sister lives and the child might be, Gage said.

McClain's sister, Corina Jackson, told authorities that she had talked about needing to "do the adoption" soon after taking Keegan.

McClain was later arrested. Police say she admitted carrying out the attack. They do not believe anyone else was involved.

 

*shakes head*

I'm for a swift trial, then immediate execution if found guilty.

 

How many lives are ruined. so sad.

 

Agree, any mother sees the horror in this case. She confessed, she is guilty. They shouldn't even have a jury trial on this subhuman scum. Just hook her up to that chair and get rid of this waste of life. She never hesitated to shoot the poor mother down in the street and then ran her over with her car as the mother was still hanging onto the car to try to get to her baby. Heartbreaking! This is why Texas has the death penalty.

 

There was a man with her supposedly in the car and he took the baby while she shot the mother seven times. They are not even mentioning him anymore. Why is that???

 

I agree with you 100% Cat.

My previous post was an attempt at being civil, considering the constitutional right to a trial and all.

Personally, I would dispense with persons that confess to these types of crimes. That would apply for the accomplice in the vehicle also.

 

So sad.

 

Don't execute her. Throw her in prison. The women there loathe people like this. She'll spend the rest of her life looking over her shoulder.

 

I'm thinking the women there will be looking over THEIR shoulder.

 

They don't have babies that (*)(*)(*)(*)(*) can steal, though. She'll be taken care of, believe me. She'd have to go in solitary to protect her.

 

I saw this on the news - another execution coming up and they shouldn't waste yrs and $ on appeals for this twisted POS......

She had an estranged husband AND a fiance? She didn't let any grass grow under her feet when it came to men.....

She had 3 kids w/her husband and she just threw them away......

 

Cat, if there had been a guy w/her, holding the baby while she was shooting the mother, he'd be all over the news and charged also....

 

She needs to be executed just like she executed that innocent mother.....

 

Well it's evident that McClain murdered Golden in cold blood and committed kidnapping. However, she had experienced a miscarriage and was probably mentally deranged as a consequence. That may warrant mercy since it's a mitigating circumstance. So it's between life or execution. Execution might be the more merciful sentence. Crimes such as this are very common.

This woman in Oregon got life for cutting a baby from a woman's uterus.

I'm going with life in prison.

 

In Texas? They are going to go for the death pently

 

Texans aren't the most intelligent people in the country.

 

How she got gun with out license ? she done a polish thing.

 

You still need a license in Texas? I thought those came free when born?

 

Killing her won't bring back the victim.

 

Killing her won't bring back the victim.

 

whoa now...hold on there...we don't need any 'compassion' making its way into this cold, hard, black and white viewpoint only world...

(*)(*)(*)(*)s like a holy water to a vampire in texas..

 

I thought the death penalty was supposed to deter people from committing heinous acts like this. Oh well.

 

No, executing her will not restore life to the victim. Neither will keeping her in prison for the rest of her life.

Persons who advocate life prison sentences for crimes of this nature, should step forward and contractually agree to sign over a great percentage of their life's earnings in support of these animals. Forget your family, send your money to feed, house and provide free health care for this inmate. Good grief!

Scum should be eradicated.

 

Interesting. Does it follow that persons who advocate the death penalty should step forward and execute the convicted? All you need is some rope and a strong tree branch, right?

 

I'm a little bit surprised as to how quiet it is in here .... surely some of the resident right-wing NRA gun nuts have plenty to say about this ... especially when it comes to blaming Libs & Obama ...

Oh, here's one now ...
