S.C. woman dies a month after fire
A South Charleston woman horribly burned following a domestic dispute last month died Tuesday in a Huntington hospital as her family looked on.
Starlena Pratt, 28, died about 11:15 p.m. after family members decided to take her off of life support, according to Wanda Carney, a friend who has been helping the family since Pratt was burned Aug. 3.
Kanawha County prosecutor Stephen B. Revercomb said murder charges would be filed against 31-year-old Farley Allen Rhodes in the wake of Pratt's death, though Revercomb hastened to add that Rhodes is innocent until proven guilty.
