Screams were heard coming from a decrepit trailer house in Alabama over the course of several days. Finally, someone decided to call 911 with their concerns caused by the unsettling sounds. When police arrived and cracked open the front door, they couldn’t believe the sight they walked in on, and worse yet was why it all happened.
Three women were on a mission, going after one item that would be the very symbol of their crimes, but there was only one person standing in the way of it. A separate woman, who they had called their friend, became their hostage and paid for their greed with her life. After days of torture, their victim was dead, and the three women responsible still didn’t get what they were after, because justice found them first.

Miranda Michelle Lynch, 34, shared a trailer house in Birmingham with her boyfriend and another roommate, 57-year-old Karen Kirby. Lynch’s boyfriend borrowed Kirby’s car on August 5 to go pick up his food stamps (Electronic Benefits Card), when he got in a head-on collision with a tractor-trailer. He was rushed to a nearby hospital in critical condition, where he remained into the following week. His prognosis wasn’t great, but he was ultimately expected to pull through. However, Kirby and her two criminal co-conspirators assumed he was as good as dead.
The roommate, along with her 39-year-old daughter, Susan Otts, and a third woman, 43-year-old Tamara Giarrusso, went to the trailer house where Lynch would be between hospital visits to her man. Little did Lynch know, she would never make it back to the hospital for another visit to her loved one.
Her fate was sealed when the three gruesome gals demanded Lynch forfeit her boyfriend’s personal information, including his social security number, and she refused. No one could blame her for denying their demands, considering what they planned to do with it. However, no one would expect what would follow either.
The three evil women wanted the man’s food stamp benefits, and when they thought he would inevitably die from his injuries, they took it as an opportunity to duplicate his welfare benefits. Their own welfare was probably not enough for these greedy gluttons, so they wanted to double down to get more, and there was only one way in their twisted minds to do it.
Lynch stood in the way of them getting more free government money, so in an act that is the absolute epitome of entitlement, the women beat the girlfriend senseless when they didn’t get what they wanted. But it didn’t stop there.
“I didn’t think this story could get any worse, but obviously as we have learned, it can and it did,” Chief Deputy Randy Christian told AL.com of the heinous things that transpired after Lynch’s resistance.
The women held Lynch in her ramshackle house of horrors for days, constantly beating her until she died from the abuse. When police arrived, Kirby was with the victim’s battered and bloody body in the home’s only bathroom, according to the Jefferson County Sheriff’s Office.
The other two killers, who helped Kirby, weren’t at the trailer at the time authorities showed up, but they were soon found and brought to justice for the despicable things they did to this woman over food stamps. All three were arrested and charged with kidnapping and capital murder, and they are now being held without bond.
This is the extreme of the precise mentality our government feeds. You give degenerates some money for nothing, and they want more. While clearly not every welfare recipient will literally kill for benefits, greed is at the root of all evil and will drive desperate people to do awful things. The defunct welfare system is set up in a way that encourages bad behavior, this case being the height of it.
These three women got what they wanted in the end. They’ll never have to worry about paying for food ever again, since it’s provided for them in prison, at the expense of the American taxpayer.
