I have been very surprised at my reaction to Mary’s case.

Found myself very sympathetic. I think it was the smug look on her in laws faces.

His parents were no doubt told not to show emotion.

Whatever she was told, I always saw a very hardened look on her face....even during the sentencing.

The children are with his parents.....they don't have it easy.

60 days for shooting a sleeping man in the back........words fail me.

Her inlaws weren't "smug". They were very composed considering that Mary had allowed her lawyers to convince her to trash her husband's character and reputation to save her own hide from the sentence she deserved for shooting him in the back, leaving him to die alone on the bedroom floor, with an unplugged telephone at his feet, and without calling 911 to help him (as she had lied to her children that she had done).

Her husband's (the Winkler's son's) last word to her was "Why?". If he had done the things she accused him of doing, there wouldn't have been a reason to waste the breath to ask why,imo.

I pray for the children to be able to overcome the damage their mother has done to their lives.
