"My husband died four years ago, and I told him if he hurt me my little girl wouldn't have a mommy or a daddy," Smith said. "I asked him why he chose me, and he said he didn't know. But after we began to talk, he said that I was an angel and that he was lost and God led him right to me."

The DUers are making fun of the fact that she is a religious woman and that Nichols said God brought her to him.

I sincerely feel sorry for the DUers sometimes.
