You could very well be right about the amount of insurance money--it just seems to me that it was more than that. I remember discussions going on about them having recently taken out insurance policies on the kids, though, and it sure seems to me like it was more than that.
There have been so many horrible episodes of mothers killing their children in recent years, that it's hard to keep up with them all. I happened to see an episode the other night on Susan Smith, the woman who drowned her 2 kids in a lake. It's just sickening!
Susan Smith was the worst, IMO. She could have given the father of her kids custordy if her boyfriend didn't want them.
