I watched with horror the mothers confession. She is pure evil. I understand she is mentally ill but she knew right from wrong. The two of them make me so sick inside. Arghhhh....

Yates, sentenced to life in prison, will be eligible for parole in 2041. Watch, it'll be 2041 before you know it.

Society is to blame. We should jail them.

I still don't understand how anybody in THEIR right mind could leave her alone with an infant, let alone four other children.
To: gulfwarvet
Tell the courts. If he had left her or taken the kids, she still would have gotten custody. There is no way he would have been able to keep the kids from her.

She is pure evil. I understand she is mentally ill but she knew right from wrong. The two of them make me so sick inside. Yes, she did know right from wrong. However, she came to believe that it was a greater evil for the children to be 'un-pure' and possessed by the devil than it was for her to send them to God for his protection. It was evil that others around her pushed that the devil would get her kids if she didn't perform as she should. If not, it would be HER doing that the devil possessed those babies. THAT IS WHAT IS SO SICK in this entire tragedy.

Exactly. There's definitely more than one mentally ill person responsible for those murders. Unfortunately, only one of them is locked up.
To: GovernmentShrinker
Agreed....I found it ghoulish that Russell held a news-conference on the one year *anniversary* of the childrens murder.....telling us poor Andrea hasn't had time to grieve the loss of her children...DUH....and who killed those babies?
To: GovernmentShrinker
And not only that but this jerk works for NASA! That is SCARY!!!
