UPDATE: Ariel Smith Declared Competent In Dryer Killing
On Thursday, January 10th, 2009 a grand jury ruled that the 19-year-old Arielle Smith should stand trial on a second degree murder charge after she was ruled mentally competent. She was initially arrested and charged with one count of first-degree murder, but a judge found sufficient evidence to reduce the charge to second-degree murder, which means she could spend the rest of her life in prison. Arielle remains in the JPCC Correctional Center in lieu of a $500,000 bond.

Thanks to an anonymous source, we have some exclusive details concerning 2008’s Babysitter of the Year, Ariel Smith. It seems this spur of the moment act of frustration may have had its roots in an old resentment.
At one point, Ariel and her boyfriend lived together with Andre Jenkins (the deceased baby) and his Mother, Father and two older siblings. According to my information, Ariel had grown up with the Father, and it was a close, happy little household.
Unfortunately, as sometimes happens, there was a falling out between the members of this blended family, and everyone parted ways.
On September 11th, 2008, Ariel Smith received a call from Andre’s mother asking her to babysit her three children. Ariel was a little annoyed that she would ask a favor of her after the breakup, but for the sake of the children she agreed. She went to pick up the kids, and then spent some time waiting in line for free food stamps the state was giving away after Hurricane Gustav.
What happened after that remains a mystery. At first, according to my source, it appeared she was going to go with the insanity defense, but now it seems she’s dropped that idea in favor of blaming it on her boyfriend.
So here’s how Ariel’s new story’s gonna go, as near as I can put it together: The boyfriend, who goes by the name of Joseph, gets tired of Andre’s constant whining, and, still smarting about the falling out between the two families, loses his temper, throws the little baby into the clothes dryer and turns it on.
Eventually the child stops crying and Ariel takes him out of the dryer. When they realize he’s dead and see the condition of the body, Ariel tells Joe to take off, and she makes up the original B.S. story about spilling boiling water on him.
So there you have it. I have complete confidence in my source, and although I’ve camouflaged what I know to protect the innocent, I have run the actual facts by admin, and he agrees they pass the smell test. You, the reader, have to decide for yourself if this scenario works for you.

hmmmmmmm im not so sure- what does the bf say about this story? Thats what i wanna know
At any rate i hope the poor kid gets the justice it deserves
works for me!
sounds very believable.
unimaginable, yes, but believable, unfortunately.
this is a sad sad world, when this scenario, not only doesn’t surprise me, but my mind already expected it.
sorry, let me clarify. I believe that the above story is how it’s going to play out, where the finger’s are going to get pointed.
BUT, I cannot say that I believe her story of “BF did it”
maybe he did, maybe she did.
who knows. Hopefully the truth will come out, although the full truth will probably only be known to one person, and he can no longer tell us his story, can he?
The above story does nothing to absolve her of guilt in this mess… She had an obligation as the caretaker to protect this child so no safety net in this story, all it does is give us another soul to place next to her on the torture table….
Now where is my meat slicer?
Oh ugh, this one – wow. Sick sick individuals.
Welll, this is a head-scratcher! With the background I can see the boyfriend scenario happening, but who is to say Ariel wasn’t still pissed over the falling out also? Then she gets stuck watching the baby and gets very annoyed by the situation and the baby and takes out her frustration on the latter. I, too want to know what the boyfriend says about all this. If he did do it, like I said before Ariel is extremely dumb if she allowed this to go on for so long. She is just as guilty for letting this happen anyway. If she had a problem with the mother she could have just told her “no” plain and simple.
On the other hand, this could all just be something concocted because her ” I’m crazy” defense fell through.
Yay for the wench being competent to stand trial. The rumors of her insanity defense were grating my nerves. I hope this idiot stays in jail for a long, long time.
cosign. except for the part about her staying in jail for a long time. i really just want her to go straight to hell.
This is yet another example of people who shouldnt have kids having kids, entrusting them to complete assholes, and the consequent tragedies which ensue as par for the course. Also nice to know that that skank was able to find the time to stand on line to collect food stamps, she looks like she doesnt skip any meals. Insanity defense, my ass. Throw her child-killing, no fashion sense ass in jail and then death by dryer for her. Sick bitch.
how could someone put a child into a dryer…..my mind boggles.
Ashley,
Babies get annoying and when patience is lost, dryers get hot and become the last resort, well, according to Ariel.
Turtle never thought she was insane, just insanely stupid.
Ariel should just admit, she lost her cool and just wanted the kid to shut-up. It’s the same as putting the kid in the can and covering it with a lid to mask the sound of crying. Only the dryer had a power button and tumble cycle.
I think that even if it was the boyfriend, Ariel still deserves to go to hell. Do they have a section down there for the morbidly stupid? Because thats where she needs to be.
Who the hell would take the blame for something like this in the name of love?
Not only has she lost her kids, but people hate her. They want her dead. This is gonna follow her for the rest of her life. Guilty or not. And why? For a man who would happily let her rot in a jail cell for a crime he committed.
So to sum up: Dumb fuck Ariel deserves everything she gets.
Another tragic case of a dumbass, immature, fucked up in the head teenager being allowed the big responsibility to have or watch a small child. Where the victim winds up being a small helpless child, and the killers motive being something ungodly stupid, such as crying or taking a shit in his/her diapers. Ya know, stuff that EVERY infant does. This oxygen thief and the rest of these teenaged terds killing the small kids all deserve to roast on hell’s bar-b-que rack.
I realize not all teenagers and younger folks are this fucked up. But this is pathetic, this is making my generation look like a bunch of braindead morons every time you turn on the news and you see another story of one of these freaks who have barely wrapped up the puberty stage killing off small children. It is fucking pathetic. And it is heartbreaking to me to know that another small defenseless child’s life has to end the way it did, because the supposed adult was too fucking incompetent to handle a child in the right manner.
Who cares why and how it happened?? The point is that this girl allowed the child in her care to be carelessly thrown in a fucking CLOTHES DRYER. She deserves a long ass jail sentence followed by eternity in Hell. And as for the boyfriend…..hopefully if he did have some involvement, the police will actually do their jobs and link him to this as well.
There is no defense for what this P.O.S. did or allowed to happen. I say “Off with her head!!”
I think you might have missed the point of my story Bubbles. I was sharing some background information I received from anonymous sources I have who are close to this case, and theorized as to what her defense might be come court time. I wish I could have been more specific than I was, but I have to protect my sources. I’m not being facetious or melodramatic here, I’m dead serious.
Does anyone know the acutal cause of death, according to the autopsy? Trauma resulting in internal bleeding? Burns or fatal rise in body temperature? Suffocation? Or a pleasant combination of all three? I’m curious. At this point it isn’t the most relavant fact, but informing a jury of how this baby suffered would probably assist in getting the most severe justice.
the baby had a broken neck, fractured skull, and third degree burns…
im thinking ariel AND her boyfriend should just be locked up since they cant decide who did it. sounds like we would all be better off anyway.
This bitch deserves to die…..why keep her alive?
it doesn’t matter to me weather she did it or not,Allowing this to happen alone deserves constant suffering or death.
I say you post her bail and give her what she deserves.
But before you kill her, I want to pee on her. Thanks.
Turtle that is way to tempting… 1/2 a million to stick her in a dryer for a few hours… Do I get to say she was trying to skip bail and I used the dryer to hold her until the cops got there?
Let me shove her in the dryer. Im mum and can claim post natal depression made me do it lol.
And the sad part about it is, ya’ll, she’s acting like everythings peaches and cream..she walks around with this big smile on her face, she’s always laughing and joking with her cell mates, never an upset or sad moment for Ms. Smith…I even asked her..I said, how did the baby look? you saw it right? And with a smile on her face, she said “Horrible. Like nothing you could ever imagine.” Now THAT was creepy. But word is, her cell mates are setting her up so they can get lesser charges. Trying to find out the real story so they can dime her out…I can’t wait to see what will happen!!!
This nutbag is still locked up and awaiting trial. I have a fairly reliable source that tells me that this girl killed the baby because she was jealous that the baby was bi racial therefore getting more compliments on his beauty than HER baby got. She also refers to the father of this baby(the one murdered) as her ‘brother’.
This is the story I am getting. From what I understand this bitch likes to run her mouth in jail.
