Didn't this take place two or three years ago? At least it doesn't appear she has done this couple any harm during that time. Still, if she was going to buy a new house, it's too bad the court didn't order her to buy one hundreds of miles away from the couple she put in danger.

I would feel really scared with her living so close I don't care how carefully she's being watched. What can she be teaching her poor vulnerable kid?

That's what I was thinking. The fact she has a disabled child in her care is a reason to put her IN jail not keep her out. If she is willing to act abusive to strangers in public, then imagine what she does behind closed doors.

I cannot believe she didn't get jail time. I would be furious if I were that couple!

I remember where I first saw this story now, it was a couple of years ago on Dr. Phil. I got the distinct feeling she still didn't realize the harm she had done or that she was remorseful. I also got the feeling Dr. Phil thought so as well. She talked about her criteria for choosing the man to go see the young woman for sex. It was really creepy as if she were setting up a blind date. She had specific ideas as to how he should appear. She rejected one guy because he looked too tough. She finally settled on one who "looked like Mr. Rogers."

She said she felt safe because she was posting from her computer so she wouldn't be harmed. Dr. Phil sounded a bit rattled when he told her that it wasn't her safety that was in question. Obviously. It really sounded as if she didn't care at all that she was putting the young woman in danger. In fact she just stared blankly at Dr. Phil when he pointed it out and said she hadn't thought it then but she knew that now. Yeah, right. She knew it now only because he had told her.

I guess as long as someone is watching her and she has that ankle device on her leg she is somewhat contained. But I wouldn't trust her any farther than I could see her. I don't think she would hesitate to either go after the same woman or try this on someone else again. I do not believe she is "cured."

Doubtful. Doesn't fit in with the central premise of all of their movies, men are evil.
