"The mothers of five children killed in a house fire surrendered to police Thursday to face involuntary manslaughter charges for allegedly leaving the youngsters alone while they went to a bar."
"Shakita Mangham, 25, arrived at municipal court early Thursday. Furaha Love, 25, turned herself in at police headquarters a short time later."
"Love also said later that she knew there was no baby sitter, and that the children had been left in the care of two 8-year-olds."
"Her attorney Ernest Sharif has said the women left the children for 15 to 20 minutes and that Love had one beer at the bar.
"It wasn't a party thing," he said."

I would hope so given the similarities in the case. And just so you know, they are still in prison awaiting trial. Compare and contrast with the McCanns.
