Smith was denied parole in South Carolina in November after spending 30 years behind bars
South Carolina killer mom Susan Smith is reportedly acting like a "complete nightmare" behind bars, months after she was convicted of a disciplinary charge for speaking with a filmmaker and ultimately denied parole.
The 53-year-old, who is serving a life sentence for drowning her two young sons in a lake in 1994, was denied parole on Nov. 20 after spending 30 years incarcerated.
"Last year, when she had a chance of getting out, she was really cooperative, helpful, even pleasant," a Leath Correctional Institution employee told The New York Post. "But now she’s the complete opposite. Just rude and b----y all the time. Overnight, she went from being a model prisoner to a complete nightmare," the employee continued, believing that Smith's previously positive character was just an act to get out of prison.

There's no doubt that prisoners who think they might get out will usually behave better. But it sounds like she hasn't take responsibility.
Proof the denying parole was the right thing to do.
She’s lucky she didn’t ride the lightning.
Will the real Susan Smith please stand up.
Of course it was an act. She’s a psycho!
Obviously.
She SHOULD have a long time ago.
Think so?
Thirty years is a long time to cool your heels.
What otherwise pardonable individual wouldn’t end up being p.o.’d.
Get you hopes up...then...Bam. Hopes dashed.
Isn’t that the only option in SC?
I vividly remember this story. How everyone initially had tremendous sympathy for her loss and hatred for the supposed killer(s). Something seemed off about what she told the press and police about her story. Wood, were they right.
Yes it was. A person can do terrible things at any given moment and under certain circumstances, but a normal person feels guilt.
She’s a psychopath who only thinks in terms of what was being denied to her affects her. Paul Bernardo, in Canada, had the same thing when he was denied parole. He wanted parole for how it would affect his life, because he wanted to experience relationships and whatever, and he had no thought about the two girls he killed or the sexual assaults he committed.

WOW it has been 30 years, I am getting damn old!!!
Somebody here on a thread about her upcoming parole hearing, was trying to claim she had changed over the years, and to have sympathy for her. I told them my experience of working in uniform for 25 years in NY State's prison system, showed that convicts play the system to get what they want. Looks like I was right.
Yeah. I would have said 20.
She should have thought about that before, uhhhh, I don’t know....KILLING HER TWO KIDS!
fry the cutie
She obviously got her own hopes up, and is the person at fault, not the Parole Board. No parole is guaranteed, but convicts are manipulative, and think if they play the system, they'll get their way. Glad she didn't.
So it was a good decision. The psycho murdered her two boys by -drowning- them, so she could hook up with a married man, and finished it off by starting her own little race war.
Probably best to keep her locked up.
Murderers of children are not “pardonable” imo. God can certainly forgive them. But they should get the death penalty here on earth.
