Firsdon choked on the potatoes and died due to her many medical conditions.

Allison and Pittman were released on bond. Bell's case will be continued until next month. She has until July 5, 1 P.M. to get an attorney.

Firsdon's sister has been fighting since September to make sure the women are held responsible for the death.
