Ashley Parnell Killed Skyler Roininen
Tulsa, OK - Ashley Lorene Parnell, 25, is accused of murdering Skyler Roininen, the 23-month-old son of her boyfriend, Robert Roininen. Police say that Skyler died of a Jon-Benet sized eight-inch skull fracture caused by Parnell early on the morning of March 27. Skyler died the next day. And of course, Ashley has a Myspace.
On the evening of March 26, everything seemed fine, according to Parnell, Robert Roininen, and Parenll’s grandmother, Nina Fries. Parnell smoked some weed before bed, she said. And the next morning, March 27, Skyler went from being a perfectly normal toddler who wanted his diaper changed to being unresponsive with an eight inch skull fracture during the time that Parnell went to get a drink of water. 911 was called about 6:00 a.m., and Skyler died the next day of a seemingly unexplainable giant crack in the head.
That’s her story and she’s sticking to it.
Police didn’t buy it. There was the problem of marijuana in the house, admittedly Parnell’s. Fries, the grandmother, says she “doesn’t approve” of that stuff in her house, but there it was anyway. Oh, and the rodent droppings in baby Skyler’s bed. And the bugs. Why is it that these stories have the bugs? I hate bugs. But bugs, rodents, filth, drugs, dead baby, clueless adults… we’ve seen this before. It’s like the Six Steps Of Dead Kid, isn’t it?
Ashely Parnell was arrested Monday and charged with Skyler’s murder. She is being held on $750,000 bond in the Tulsa County Jail.
Well, well, well……..this is a new twist on an old story. A woman killing the boyfriend’s baby. I guess this will fall under the equal opportunity laws, or affirmative action for women.
And let’s take a vote here - how many of us really believe that pot made this woman kill that baby? I have never heard of someone smoking pot, and flying into a violent rage. People who smoke pot, in my experience, giggle a lot and get the munchies. So……the only reason Ashley could possibly have had for killing the kid is if she had the munchies, and was planning to eat him. Maybe she was. After all, the kid would probably have tasted better than the bugs and rat droppings.
I think they need to do a forensic analysis on the confiscated pot. You know, to see if it was laced with, say……….METH?……or CRACK? You know what I mean - one of those drugs that actually makes you mean instead of just mellow and happy.
So, would this be a case of ‘put down the pussy’? Just askin’…….
Holy crap. She has totally thrown off my baby killer profile. A young white girl. Holy jeebus. But she did have all the other signs. I wonder where the kids bio mom is. chances are this asshat dad has a bad track record with women and the bio mom is not exactly mother of the year material either.
Poor little baby. Never had a chance. There are just some kids that are born into this world doomed. At least this skank has not birthed any of her own, and if we are lucky, she never will. I hope this bitch loves prison. She doesn’t look like she will last long.
Did you catch her occupation, youth minister!
Why do all the baby beaters live in squalor? Is it a requirement to have bugs and rats? Do people not believe in exterminators? She couldn’t have been having money issues her my space says she makes over $250,000.00, so what’s the problem.
I agree Angel, I don’t believe pot caused her to do anything other than get the munchies.
Personally, I don’t think anything can make you”mean” to the extent that you would hurt or kill a child…maybe these are just people born with no soul…where was the dad while all this was going on? Is he keeping his mouth shut too?
Ms. Hill, Me thinks she was bullshitting in her profile. She says she’s a Pacific Islander, bodybuilder, Scientologist. I doubt she’s a Youth Minister and makes upwards of $250k per year. Just a hunch.
Angel, I believe you’re right. It’s time for “daddy” to (in our best Ron Popiel chant ala “SET IT AND FORGET IT”) PUT DOWN THE PUSSY!
Crystal meth’s pretty harsh in the way it blocks emotions and bonding, and impulse control…I think if any drug could make a person hurt a baby because of it’s influence, then meth is the one.
Angel, I forgot to add. I totally agree with you on the pot. In my sordid past I could have smoked weed all damn day. I never in a fucking million years would have had the energy, stamina, drive to do more than giggle, eat, maybe sleep. No way I’d be able to fit a baby killing in!
Fuck I thought cleanliness was next to godliness.
I agree, pot makes you mellow man. She smoked before going to bed, shit her buzz was gone when she awoke.
Baby was crying and pissed her off. Where was dad. What kind of youth minister is this? Pot, adultry and murder? Scary, she looks pretty ah normal.
Jail will be fun for her
Cunt-Bitch
Yeah Tray bay bay, I figured that just found it ironic is all
I agree Michelle she’s a cunt!
No, I think it’s, “Push away the pussy.”
LOL
It’s hard, way to hard too push away the pussy! No pun intended.
I actually read in a newspaper site’s comments that Ashley does have at least one child of her own who, according to that poster, had not been abused.
I’m interested to watch this one play out. And if i find a pic of baby Skyler, I’ll put it up. Poor little guy.
I hope to hell that child’s dad has custody…..sole custody. Maybe that’s why it hasn’t been abused?
What a beautiful child! Looks a bit like my 2 year old. Which makes me want to hurt this bitch even more….
Can I have a few minutes alone with her, I wonder? 8 inch skull fracture? Yup, I think I could manage that.
And it just hit me - an 8 inch skull fracture on a two year old would be long enough to effectively crack the child’s skull in HALF! What the fuck did she use on him? Vice grips?
Smoked some weed and got all fucking violent, heh? Yeah that’s me. I kill so many babies every year, because pot makes me hate babies….yes indeed it is the shit. Gets me all fired up mad, I start cleaning my guns and sharpening my knives every time I hit the bong. Hell I just claim to be a hippie cause it sounds peaceful…..takes away from my evil pot smoking, devilish fucking ways. If you smoke enough of the shit, makes you wanna fuck kids, too. Great drug. o_O
Really, I’ve heard it all, now. “Smoked some weed for I went to bed, must of fucked up the kid then….or maybe it was the baby powder I was sniffin?…No, No I know what it is now…..that Vick’s baby rub….that’s what did it, eucalyptus makes me go fucking crazy!”
Poor baby, just had some stupid fucking idiot as their caregiver. Killer at heart who tries to blame something else for their heinous behavior.
He was such a cute little boy. I don’t know how anyone could hurt him

I love that her friends on MySpace are “praying” for her and supporting her.
Fucking idiots.
I only see one “praying.” Hey, maybe he’s praying she gets whacked on the head with an aluminum baseball bat!
I bet that would sound pretty weird, for that split second before you lost consciousness.
What they NEED to be praying for is some fucking good sense! Because they obviously don’t have any….
I hope the bitch rots…….and her friends too, if they condone her actions.
Just put down the pussy and walk away;D
I smoked some pot once - it made me want to rape and kill. Seriously, this whole murder caper smells like a toddler’s full diaper. And she’s a coffee-coloured, muscular wanna-be ‘clear’ - surely not! Hey, what happens when you mix ganja with anabolic steroids with hokey religion with $250K? and bugs, babies and bad-ass grannies. I see a Tarantino movie coalescing…
Pretty sure she has two kids of her own that have no reports of child abuse. And although she’s been charged, she hasn’t been convicted. And the story doesn’t seem to add up. There’s always a chance that she didn’t do it. I’d like to see how this plays out, but to assume she’s already a convicted murderer is ignorant.
Welcome to the site, Phenomenogical.
Were Ashley’s children in the rodent-infested, filthy home where Skyler/Skylar was killed? If not, why not? Does she in fact have custody of those children? If not, why not?
I’m interested to see how this case plays out as well. We at DD, not being a jury in a courtroom, have no problem assessing the available evidence and making a value judgment on a person’s parenting skills at the very least.
In fact, we generally find that if a person is charged, they are very often guilty, particularly when stories change and it takes several days to charge a suspect. In no way does that mean we are assuming that Ashley has been convicted - we’re well aware she has yet to stand trial. But our record speaks for itself - I can’t think of a single case Morbid or I have posted on the front page in which the accused ended up being acquitted of all charges. So to assume that we know nothing about assessing evidence, interpreting journalistic spin, and coming to a logical and generally correct conclusion is, to use your term, ignorant.
Regardless, welcome. Stick around! You may find you like us anyway.
I know this family very well. If you check out http://www.kjrh.com you will find the affidavits that got her arrested in the first place. She was adopted by her grandmother Nina years ago. Her father’s name is Clifford Parnell and violence has been in this family for years if you wil check the Oklahoma Court records. If you will also read the affidavit posted on KJRH news you will see that YES her child was in her Great Grandmother’s bedroom sleeping with her. I do believe Ashley will be found guilty and it’s a shame….but this girl has been in trouble off and on for years. It was just a matter of time
Also, Ashley only has one child…this is a very dysfunctional family and it’s doesn’t surprise me that the place was described as it was. I could tell you so much about this family you wouldn’t believe. But there’s not enough space here. Ashley is a product of her environment…but if she falls back on that as an excuse it’s just a cop out on her part.
Here is a direct link to the affidavit in question:

Try us! We’ll make room.
Thanks Morbid!
Ok, go to http://www.oscn.net Use a docket search for Tulsa County. Using JUST Nina Parnell, Clifford Parnell and Ashley Parnell (each individual searches) see how many violent charges/injunctions etc; you find. Not to include the bogus check charges, larceny etc there are also. Told you I know this family well…and in this case blood isn’t thicker than water.
Holy Cow! Divininia, that link was eye-opening. Theft, 2 Domestic violence charges, etc. Ashley looks like such a nice girl too. Who knew?
The local sheriff and judge, presumably…..

A new story in the Tulsa World today about this one:
http://www.tulsaworld.com/news/article.aspx?articleID=20080507_1__JENKS64454
Looks like Oklahoma DHS had some advance warning in this case too.
I don’t live there anymore, but I grew up in Jenks, OK. In fact, for several years, I was best friends with Ashley’s aunt/sister. Ashley was adopted by her grandmother, Nina, so her sister is her aunt. I don’t have as much contact with the family anymore, but I can tell you that Ashley not only has one child of her own, she has two. She gave one of them up. The other is now in the custody of the sister/aunt. He was in the house the night that the toddler died, though.
i don’t understand why she got blamed for the child’s death. there were two other adults in the house and another child. why is it her fault?
i’m not trying to stand up for “baby killer’s” or anything, but this article bothered me enough for me to go and try to find out as much as i could… which isn’t a lot.
she went to trial in june sometime, but i couldn’t find the outcome of that anywhere. i looked at her myspace page that seems to be being handled by her sister…
it just seems to me that police haven’t looked into investigating the other people in the house very much.
why?
is it because of parnell’s previous run-ins with the law?
i mean- it’s been 8 months since this happened and she is still claiming that she is innocent. don’t people eventually break down or screw up their story? she seems to have been pretty consistent throughout.
i mean, maybe she DID do it… but something seems off here to me.
