A woman charged with capital murder in the death of her 13-month-old infant son is the subject of a wrongful death lawsuit filed today in Limestone County Circuit Court, as well as local and state officials with the Alabama Department of Human Resources.
The suit contends that the October 5, 2019, death of Casen Case, who was left in a hot car for seven to eight hours, could have been prevented if DHR investigators had acted on multiple reports that the child’s mother was abusing and neglecting him.

A 16-year-old from Elkmont has been indicted for the September 2019 murder of five family members.
Court records show Mason Wayne Sisk was indicted on capital murder charges Jan. 27. His attorney a few days earlier filed a motion in Limestone County Circuit Court for a speedy trial.
Sisk is accused of putting a gun to the heads of his father, mother, and three younger siblings and pulling the trigger while they slept on Sept. 2, 2019. Mary Sisk, 35, John Sisk, 38, and their three children - Kane, 6, Rorrie, 5 and 6-month-old Colson - all died from gunshot wounds to the head. Authorities have not publicly identified a motive in the slayings.
