This woman should have been locked up in the inner sanctum of the insane asylum where there are two sets of doors that are locked going in and coming out. She’s a candidate for the padded cell.

Or husband or someone else could have killed them to make it look like suicide. Maybe she knew something and was going tell.

She seems like a career gal who had kids later in life. Maybe the mom thing wasn’t what she thought it would be.

Still demented and a piece of crap.

Manslaughter. It is alleged that her actions in repeatedly encouraging her boyfriend to kill himself were reckless conduct that lead to his death.

A similar case has been brought before in Massachusetts where a young woman encouraged her boyfriend to kill himself.

“...the decision to commit the crime was a rational one...”

There is no such thing as a “rational” decision to murder your children....

I wonder if those same people empathizing with her “plight” have any sympathy for those two babies that she threw to their deaths

She should have jumped first, then maybe I could generate some empathy.

“Why do parents..”

No doubt some dads go savage but, in my reading, 9/10 are women.

Just an ignorant observation: I never heard many stories like this before they banned Quaaludes.

It seems to be a common media portrayal that a man who murders his family members, and then kills himself is evil, scheming, and awful in just about every possible way. When a mother murders her children, and then kills herself the media portrays it as the sad consequence of mental illness. Both actions probably include a major component of mental illness, along with some evil motivations.
I think the media find it harder to imagine a mother killing her family than a father doing the same thing, a natural consequence of stereotypes assigned to men and women.

Boy, did you NAIL that one.
Well put!

Director of corporate social responsibility
and community relations?

I swear it’s becoming a prerequisite in education and business to hire the worst, most mentally unstable people possible.

Mothers who murder their children do it to punish the father of the children.

That does unfortunately make a sick kind of sense. What better way than to punish a person you helped make?

The prevailing sentiment is one of understanding, even sympathy, for whatever inner turmoil led to her ending the lives of her own children in such a brutal manner.

I don't have to go any further than your post to know what to expect in the comments.

I have no idea of the extent of her mental illness but only God will ultimately judge her, not mere mortals, most of whom are hypocrites in their own faith...........

Why do parents have to murder their kids over their own problems?

Spousal payback, I'm guessing. Her post-death experience doesn't bear thinking about.
