Flint girl’s adoptive mother charged with murder
Genesee County prosecutors today charged the adoptive mother of a quadriplegic 9-year-old girl with second-degree murder, and five other charges, alleging neglect and malnourishment caused the death of the girl who was found dead this week in a storage unit.
Lorrie Thomas, 39, of Flint is charged in connection with the death of her adopted daughter and niece, Shylae Thomas.
Thomas is also charged with two counts of welfare fraud, child abuse, tampering with evidence and a misdemeanor count of removing a dead body without the permission of the medical examiner.
“This is obviously a very, very sad and tragic case that we’ve been dealing with,” said Genesee County Prosecutor David Leyton, who said the case is among the worst he’s ever seen.
Leyton said an autopsy showed that Shylae suffered from malnutrition, and weighed 33 pounds at the time of her death. In August, records indicate the girl weighed 61 pounds, Leyton said.
Thomas will be arraigned this afternoon at Flint’s 68th District Court. She also faces child abuse, welfare fraud and tampering with evidence charges.
On April 13, Thomas cashed a $2,884 monthly adoption subsidy check to cover Shylae’s death, Leyton said. Leyton said he believes Shylae has been dead for about six weeks.
“The child suffered, there’s no question about it,” Leyton said. “Nobody should have to go through this, and it’s heartwrenching to every one of us.”
Leyton said the girl was supposed to be fed through a tube that was attached to her stomach, likening it to an IV.
Earlier today, a cousin of Lorrie Thomas defended the woman.
“My cousin was a good parent,” said Josette Thomas of Flint, when asked about Lorrie Thomas. The Free Press interviewed Josette over the phone today.
Flint Police found Shylae’s body was early Wednesday morning stuffed in a garbage bag inside a plastic container in Unit 103 of the Stor & Lock facility just north of Flint.
Josette Thomas clarified Shylae’s spelling, saying investigators and some court documents misspelled the name as Shylea.
Josette Thomas said her cousin, Lorrie, “did the best she could with eight children.”
“She made a vital mistake, but she is not a monster, no way, no how,” said Josette Thomas, who is also 39. “I don’t know what happened but I know Lorrie loved those children.”
Donna Thomas, who said she is Shylae’s cousin, told the Free Press that the girl, who was a quadriplegic because of a crib injury, could not talk.
“She could make sounds,” Donna Thomas said. “She could laugh. She knew when you were around her.”
Donna and Josette Thomas said they hadn’t seen Shylae in about a year.

Will Nancy Grace and Gretta Van Susteren be giving this case the sort of overkill coverage that they do for anomalies such as Kaylee Anthony?
No, I suspect they and their ilk will remain as silent on this as they did about the rape/torture/dismemberment and murders of Channon Christian and Chris Newsom(to name but one nigger atrocity.)
That is one ugly sheboon.
Is it just me, or is it that I swear American negros are devolving? It seems that each year I see more and stronger gorilla features. That I see more and more fat, grazing sheboons moving through the urban enviroment like a Dian Fossey film?
Is it possible that Detroit could be fenced off and turned into a park, with cable gondollas touring the various Ground Ape habitats?

I could vote for something like that anyday
….Cable Gondolas above the various ape habitats….
I think this is a wonderful and highly lucrative idea. When left completely to their own devices in the fenced in area the coons would quickly revert to their primitive form. They would stroll about buck naked like a troupe of bonobo chimps, and perhaps the sightseers in the gandolas could buy treats to throw down to the simians: waddy melon, chili wings, kfc. It couldn’t be a mixed enclosure however–if orangs or lowland gorillas were put in the africoons would kill them all right away.
Don why the fuck would anyone want to look at that shit?
Hahahaha @ fat grazing sheboons. Made me laugh.
Aw…she looks like such a sweet, kind, loving, nurturing woman……^_^
“if orangs or lowland gorillas were put in the africoons would kill them all right away.”
I would kinda be like a “wild kingdom” battle to the death between rival ape clans…you’d make a fortune via pay-per-view sales…
On another note, I, sadly continue to find this story utterly revolting
“Is it just me, or is it that I swear American negros are devolving?”
You may be on to something with that. From the looks of things, I think the “females” of the species are evolving into males. That thing in the pic has a neck like a wrestler, and probably has more testosterone than your average male. No wonder nigger bucks will try to muh dick any thing that’s White.
Notice muhdickie has nothing to say about this. The ugly truth stares him in the face and he is speechless. Gorilla woman has got his tongue.
Nothing says primitive ape like this mug shot.
The woman looks indian to me. She doesn’t look black. As far as being primitive well thats a way of thinking so…………..hmmmmmmmmmm how do i put this?………YOU ARE THE PRIMITIVE! Now thats the ugly truth asshole!
She looks Indian to you muhdickie? Everyone else on this site thinks she looks like a primitive god damned ape. Now you explain this away by magically turning this ape woman into an Indian. Niggers, what will they say and do next. Pass the mothballs nigger. Typical welfare cheat monkey. Ahhahahahaha, fuck you niggers looking one step removed from the jungle. The truth is niggers are closer to monkeys and apes than human. Tell me that picture doesn’t say it all.
Something tells me that the responsibility of feeding that handicapped girl fell mostly on the shoulders of the 15 year old mother of two…I’d almost bet the farm on it…Mother: “TyEshia…yous go put dat cans of Ensure in de babies feeding tube whiles I’s go to de party sto to cash dis here welfare checks” TyEshia after her mother left: “Naw fuck dat sheeit, I’s goin to see my boo…we’s gonna do de nasty! Rubbers…what de fuck be rubbers???” ^_^
look at that huge flat nose and those lips. Don’t let the bad weave fool ya – she’s a coon.
Happy day mathuh
What if, instead of ADC we gave the apes money not to reproduce? In two generations problem solved.
But then the future of the white race would be just a little more secure and jews would feel threatened by that.
That is the ugliest boon, ever! Kind of a Native American/Boon mix.
All you ugly ass crackers talking about her looks.
That’s what make nigga’s so unique.
No two of us look the same.
But you cracker muthafukas:
Don’t you wonder why you look like your neighbor or your football coach?
Because your mother fucked them and is passing you off to the dumb cocksucker that is paying all the bills in your trailers.
Cracker-ass-cracker
Oh PLEASE! Not this “black is beautiful” shit again.
Niggers are not unique, you’re all uniformly UGLY! I wouldn’t know ape from ape if not for stuff like scars, bling, and #s on jerseys.
The kicker is that nothing is uglier than nigger she-males! Forget the Nile Queen fairy tales!
We both know why the bucks salivate like starving pit bulls at the sight of a blond don’t we?
You’ve got a lot of proof burning your eyes! Tiger Woods!
Any moderately successful coon goes out and instantly tries to thin his mud blood out with the most Aryan woman he can find!!!
If that’s not an admission of who is superior, I don’t know what IS!
No amount of crying by some Princess Zulu Jemima will change the minds of their own knuckle-dragging menz.
OH and saying cracker just tends to make white people laugh because it reminds them that niggers can’t even think up a good insult.
You wish that “coons” chased them cracker bitches.
White bitches start chasing black athletes when they in their playpen, cocksucker.
They be sucking those big, black dicks in bathrooms and elevators.
Yeah, look at Tiger woods.
Good for him.
I bet that white bitch is sucking the shit out of his black asshole.
But, I am sure his dick is small as yours, so she can have him.
Also, you speak on crackers being superior.
Bullshit.
If so, then why does 80% of your trashy, dog smelling race, catch skin cancer, trying to look lke me?
Pale face asshole.
That’s what’s wrong with you sad whites.
ODing on drugs, pimping and raping your daughters, stealing from your boss, cheating on your taxes, killing your whole family, etc,etc,etc.
Just sad.
I actually feel sorry for you.
Now, get your father’s cock out of your ass, and get some professional help.
Charlie, albino, gubba, honky, redneck, trailer trash, crackwhore, roundeye, white nigga, hillbilly, or cracker.
I just like cracker the best.
Just like your cracker ass like nigger so much.
CRACKER-ASS-CRACKER.
See, ain’t that funny.
Especially, when Chris Rock say it.
I’m thinking this is muziki’s wife.
Hahaha! Please! Your yard ape men will dance, play the fiddle, and do anything to get the attention of a woman that doesn’t remind them of the hideous gorilla mammy that spawned them.
Dog smelling? Well like I said your sorry ass field apes seem to disagree with that. It is YOU and your foul odor and appearance they are running from. I don’t blame the sorry bastards either. VERY SAD! But sorta funny.
And trust me shitskin, nobody is trying to look LIKE YOU. White people tend to live long and happy lives. 99% of us are buried long after your typical nigger has kicked the KFC bucket. If not from a heart attack from too much greasy ass food then from shooting each other!
Your lifespans are probably lower than the average American pet. Believe me when I say nobody sheds a tear!
You don’t have to confess but we all know that at some time you stood in front of that mirror with a beauty magazine. You worked hard to look as White as you could and get rid of the monster face you were born with straight out of National Geographic. Probably when the princess dream died!
The best part of everything you say is that the negatives are all true of niggers. Drugs? Prostitutes? PLEASE! Inner city crackheads and sluts are all on you. AND all the names are funny stuff. Couldn’t hurt a puppy with that shit.
Don’t feel sorry for us! We’ve got good healthcare and we get to watch you morons gun each other down!
I smell a little bear grease on this she boon, I think it may have been her ancestor’s instinct taking over. She had no ice flow to float her out on, so a storage unit was the natural back up plan.
