Maria Olmeda, wearing pressure gloves, holds the crucifix she was wearing when she was attacked last March. Olmeda was burned when she was set on fire by a neighbor who thought Olmeda was having an affair with her husband. The husband didn't exist. The woman was sentenced to 12 years for aggravated murder and arson.
