On August 24, 2003 seven year old Kayla Allen was found unresponsive, lying face down in her own vomit. They found a red and grey granular pesticide poison in her stomach. The poison was identified as Atroban it is used for pig, sheep, and cattle farms. Two psychotropic medications in her heart tissue were also found. When Kayla vomited, the pesticide aspirated into her tiny lungs, bursting the air sacs. According to toxicologist reports. It is known that Carolyn Futrell was at home, alone with Kayla when she died. There are no witnesses because Kayla is dead. Following Kayla's death, Futrell gave three contradicting statements as to the cause of death. A medical toxicologist says Kayla, who was poisoned with Atroban, drank eight times the average gulp for a child her age.

 

Child Protective Services had investigated over 13 allegations of abuse of Kayla prior to her death. One abuse report was taken when Kayla was 6 year old and gave an officer detailed explanations for the bruises on her head, arms, and buttocks, stating “Mommy, Aunt Carolyn” did it by beating her head against her dresser, whipping her with a spatula and a spoon, and her arms were covered in finger bruises due to Futrell’s grabbing hold of Kayla as she beat her about her head and buttocks. Child Protective Services in Onslow County NC determined Kayla had received these bruises while roller skating. REALLY Kayla told you what happened to her how do you determine her injuries where from roller staking?

In February 2006, Carolyn Futrell was released from jail on a$200,000.00 bond and has had custody of her two younger sons. Carolyn Futrell was found guilty of involuntary manslaughter. The sentence for involuntary manslaughter is between 16 and 20 months in prison. But since Futrell had already served more than 20 months in jail, the judge waived any sentencing.

I’m sorry that justice was not served for you Kayla.
