This won't be a popular opinion, but does anyone else feel bad for her? I mean, she lost all her kids, ANDd she's probably going to prison.

Yes, it was 100% her fault, but she clearly looks torn up in the photo.

Yes, I feel bad for what I assume she is going through right now, assuming it wasn't intentional.

Well, this is a forum where a frick ups brother falls asleep on railroad tracks from being high as shite (allegedly)and people send sympathy...but kids who can't swim sure dont have a lot of prayers sent.

I feel especially bad for those poor kids. What makes you think people aren't sad for the kids, other than your own ignorance and bigotry?

Not really. Feel bad that 3 children drowned b/c of her neglect though.

I feel bad for her 3 children. I am sure they didn't all drown at once. I am sure one went under and the other 2 drown trying to save the first one. All the while mom is busy on facebook or whatever she was doing. I can't imagine the helpless feeling those children had and not a single adult to save them. If it was an accident then I have empathy for her.

From the story when the 2 kids were still on life support

"Child Protective Services has had prior contact with the family, but no further details were provided."

Hmmm, wonder what CPS already knew about this wonderful and attentive mother?

LINK

ETA also from the above link when it was still being investigated as an accident and only one child was dead (the others were on life support but obviously later classified as brain dead and removed from support)....

"The drowning is being investigated as an accidental death and no charges are pending, but the investigation is ongoing and that could change if information comes up to suggest criminal negligence or an act of omission on the mother’s part, McLellan said.

Well ya, she just lost 3 dependents and that is going to cut into her monthly "entitlement" checks big time.

She is a piece of shite. If you have kids that cannot swim, and you yourself cannot swim, you don't go to the pool without other people and you for damn sure watch your kids. What a loser.

If Obama hadn't given her a phone those kids may be alive today

I don't know enough about the mother to say much more than grossly negligent in the death of 3 of her children. She may have had an off day and just didn't do her job as a parent with tragic consequences.

I have seen many poor children who really had no chance at all in life, not just because of their race or economic level. They were born to shite parent/s.

Their shite parents before them were also born to shite parents and so on. Eventually you go far enough back and blame it on me, I guess.

They're being too hard on her IMO. She managed to keep 2/5 alive, that's almost half
