The former apartment maintenance worker is accused of killing 12 year old Jonathan Foster.
The young boy disappeared from his mother's apartment in Garden Oaks on Christmas Eve.
Nelson was in court to ensure she knew her rights as she faces a murder charge.
Harris County Assistant District Attorney Connie Spence says she's not sure if there will ne more arrests in the case.
Spence says her next step is to take Nelson before a grand jury to get an indictment.
Nelson was arrested last week after Foster's badly burned body was found only miles from his home in north Houston.
Community activist Quanell X says Nelson admitted to dumping the child's body in a ditch near the Hardy Toll Road.
However, Nelson maintains she was paid $20 by Foster's step-father to dump what she thought was trash.
Prosecutors reinforced a position made by homicide detectives...they believe Nelson acted alone.
In the meantime, Nelson's oldest sister Angie Johnson,
says she knows her sibling did not kill the young boy.
Johnson says, "she's had her peoblems but she would never hurt a child."
Johnson says Nelson, who has two children and five grandkids of her own, would never hurt the young victim.

I guess it's only human nature to defend your family, personally I think the evil bitch killed that little boy.
