I agree she's crying cuz she got caught

[@koltred]

michigan is highly democrat favoring and they vote these scumbag officials into office that give lenient sentences. there was recently a man who killed someone elses child in a dui and got 1 year sentence for it. until they get off the republican hating bandwagon, and get both sides of the story politically, michigan will continue to give felons lesser charges. my evidence of this is jussie smollette in chicago facing 7 counts of felony hate crime falsifications and Kim Foxx state prosecutor releasing him completely scott free dismissed the case because racism. chicago and detroit are the crossfire of their false balance of socialism. children are murdered every day because democrat policy is out of control and perpetuates the prolong holding of office positions for democrats by creating the problems they claim to be against.

Heartbreaking... Her babies are gone and she is left with the knowledge that she basically killed them. That is enough to drive you insane for the rest of your life, regardless if you are in jail or at home. She has to live with her poor choices every waking day. I only hope that their deaths will be the reason for her to stay sober. So heartbreaking for everyone involved. Prayers for all. 😔💔🙏🏼

Finally a comment that isn't filled with hate-filled vengeance...

[@JJSo12345]

Unbelievable. Am I right that this murderer will possibly do less than 10 years? Why are the sentences concurrent?!?! 3 children dead because of her…THREE. She should have to stay in prison for a mandatory minimum of 30 years. Sickening.

[@brucetanta9205]

Dui is a felony !! 3 killing are only misdemeanorS : are you crazy !!!

[@pamelanadel3787]

AS a woman who has cried many times, tears come before the runny nose. I didn’t see her wipe away a single tear. She says she deserves mercy! What a pos. As for the judge, how does he sleep at night?

[@davidretondo2871]

I noticed that.

My cousin eas a judge he stepped down due to things like this ge didnt have the heart to ve very strict ge had guidelines to follow and when he knowingly sent a child back into an abusive home ge was done but guidelines

She paying the ultimate price! She has to live with it. She will never be free of it.

[@maryannenizio5074]

which means she will probably get drunk and be on the road killing someone else's children

[@nerak4971]

don't sweat it, she will just get high and forget all about it

[@asafaust8869]

Her conscience will finish her punishment. If there is any sign of humanity in her, she will feel deep remorse for her preventable "mistake".😢

[@maryannenizio5074]

@@asafaust8869 no she is going to get out and drink MORE and kill someone else's kids that's how this usually goes ...because of this happening she is bound to be a heavier drinker

[@grantpicklesimer2995]

2-5 years for killing her THREE children? The justice system in America absolutely sucks.

[@leesashriber5097]

Our justice system is so flawed and a failure. She killed her three kids!!! She should get life!!!😡

Losing even one child is beyond words, the pain in your heart never ever goes away, a hole in your heart. The pain she will have to live with for 3 children gone is a sentence that no parent would want to go through. It's beyond suffering. I pray she gets the help she needs for recovery. The three little children are in God's kingdom now where they are safe. She needs to ask God for forgiveness and repent.

[@TheSeedsower107]

I totally agree !

[@mistyblackfoot3848]

Agreed. That kind is pain, knowing she’s responsible… man it just makes me want to hug my two little boys tightly. I don’t want to imagine that pain. What a stupid, preventable mistake.

[@kh-se4zt]

Hold your children and hug them everyday, tell them you love them. We all have to have accountability for our actions as a parent. If you have a drug or alcohol problem seek help immediately, your children's lives are worth more. We have to protect them at all costs. We need to teach them well, guide them on the right path of life. I lost my daughter and i have a hole in my heart that can never ever be mended. @@mistyblackfoot3848

[@johnleepettimoreiii65]

I bet she did it intentionally.

[@Jambers00]

She killed them.

[@latyshal.2286]

Wow! 24 months to 60 months??! That's all she got??! That's not enough time. That's not justice for her three children. 😔💔 May they continue to rest in peace. 🕊💫
