South Carolina killer mom Susan Smith is back up for parole once again after she was convicted of drowning her two young children.

The 53-year-old, who is serving a life sentence for drowning her two young sons in a lake in 1994, was denied parole in November 2024, after spending 30 years incarcerated.

Now, Smith is once again eligible for release as she continues to serve a 30-years-to-life sentence.

Smith strapped her sons, 3-year-old Michael and 14-month-old Alexander Smith, into the back seat of her car and let it roll down a ramp into John D. Long Lake in Union, South Carolina, on Oct. 25, 1994.

Me too. I still can’t believe she didn’t get the death penalty.

I remember that. We had one similar here in suburban Detroit….

On August 3, 1989, Lawrence DeLisle drove his car into the Detroit River in Wyandotte, killing his four children (aged 8 months to 8 years). Initially claiming a leg cramp, he later confessed and was convicted in June 1990 of four counts of first-degree murder, dominating local headlines into the early 1990s.

Here’s a thought, put her in the same cell with SF FedEx driver and see who kills the first.

She could have hired Planned Parenthood to kill them, and she would be celebrated by society.

I remember how those “backward” SC police were suspicious of her story right off, and the Boston police turned the city upside down for the non-existant black man who killed Carol Stuart.

I’d donate a round for her execution today as well. End taxpayer funding of her continued living.

Shes a woman. They almost never get equal sentences for the same crimes men do. They cry. Judges are either paternalistic if men, or feminist if women, and sentencing stats show they get about 1/3 the sentences men get for the same crimes, and often they get non jail probations and community service crap slap on the wrists.

Sickening. And they were her kids on top of it.
