sentenced Christie to death by lethal injection. Judge Terry Dempsey

issued the sentence shortly after 9am.

In July, a jury found guilty of three

counts of capital murder for setting a fire in her home that killed her

six-year-old son, Mason. The majority of the jurors in the case recommended a

sentence of life in prison without parole.

However, Judge Terry Dempsey said in his

ruling the child's death was more heinous, atrocious and cruel than many

other capital cases and ordered to die.

" The Court is a great believer in the

jury system and following the jury when at all possible, " Judge Dempsey

burning him alive is too much to overcome. "

During the trial, the state presented evidence

that Mason, who was autistic, had a total of $175,000 worth of life insurance

when he died. Christie also took an additional $100,000 policy the day

before her son died. Someone had also removed expensive jewelry and pictures

from the home. Investigators also found an undamaged smoke detector in the

ashes. It was believed to have been taken down before the fire.

Defense attorney Tuten argued the fire
