It's hardly Constitutional to order someone sterilized. If she's a murderer, execute her. Don't set Hitlerian precedents.

Just kill the b---- and be done with it! All of this baby killing and abuse needs to stoop. There seem to be more and more of these horrible stories every day.

I'm with you. What this woman did has heinous, but the precedent it sets is worse still.

Actually, the SCOTUS has ruled that it is Constitutional:

On appeal, the U.S. Supreme Court in the landmark case Buck v. Bell (1927), ruled 8-1 to uphold the sterilization of Ms. Buck on the grounds she was a "deficient" mother. Chief Justice Oliver Wendell Holmes Jr., an adherent of eugenics, declared "Three generations of imbeciles are enough."

It's perfectly legal for the Judge to offer her a deal, jail or sterilization
