Nine-year-old Savannah Hardin is dead because she wanted a chocolate bar.
The Alabama girl's stepmother and grandmother found out that she'd eaten the candy without permission, according to police, and punished her by making her run for three hours while they looked on. The third-grader suffered seizures and died.
The Associated Press is reporting that prosecutors may seek the death penalty.
