The mother of a 6-year-old who shot his teacher in Virginia is expected to be sentenced Friday for felony child neglect, nearly a year after her son used her gun to critically wound the educator.

Deja Taylor faces up to five years behind bars, but as part of a plea deal, prosecutors said they will recommend a six-month sentence that falls within state guidelines.

A judge will ultimately decide Taylor’s punishment at court hearing scheduled for 1 p.m.

Mom should be prosecuted! Where on earth would a SIX YEAR OLD get a gun if it weren’t available in the home?

I hate the gun grabbers as much as the next guy, but this is a no-brainer.

I added three step-sons to my family when they were 3, 4 & 5 years old. You’re damn straight my weapons and ammo were under lock and key at ALL times.

Undoubtedly there’s a father out there somewhere. But what the kid needed was a dad.

Nor does she know which one it was. Deja vu all over again...
