I've heard about this case many times. Very sad..she killed all 9 of her children and now after 31 years, she's granted parole.
What are your thoughts? Are you surprised they are letting her free? Angry?
I personally am very angry about this. Typical they'd just let some evil woman out...she was even suspected of trying to poison her husband.
31 years is a good long time to sit in jail. If they don't have the death penalty, then why cost the tax payers another 30 years worth on her? She's probably in a different place mentally than she was 30 years ago, so let her free, give her another chance to see if she can make it in this world, if not, lock her back up.
An eye for an eye. A tooth for a tooth. Murderers should never be freed to roam among us and our children. I don't care what it costs taxpayers to keep them in prison.

According to your article, most everyone associated with her case has agreed she should be let out. Her husband has stood by her for whatever reason. I hope she got some sort of counseling. She probably suffered postpartum depression.
I honestly don't know how I feel. On one hand she could have killed 9 babies, on another we really don't know if any were due to actual sicknesses back then; SIDS. At 75 she won't be having any babies, let's hope she doesn't harm her husband...

She can't have babies, but she'll have access to yours and others.
You "hope" she doesn't hurt her husband? HOPE?!
It isn't likely that all her other babies died of SIDS. Society and babies have a right to be protected from this freak. She belongs right where she is. Keep her in prison until she dies and the threat to babies everywhere is neutralized.

This case is baffling.
Authorities seem unified in the belief that the death of her first baby was not murder.
Then you've got 7 more small children/babies who are associated with her, who died in early childhood, many with causes of death that appear innocent.
But by the time you rack up THAT many deaths - with zero surviving children - the statistical odds that this is murder somehow cleverly disguised as other conditions becomes about 1.
She admits to the death of her last child. If it is in fact true, that she innocently lost 8 children before the 4 month old Tammi who she killed at 4 months "to get it over with", I'd be inclined to absolve her of murder based on insanity.
It just doesn't seem possible that she lost the previous 8 to health issues not caused by her, though.
Murdering 9 people means she's basically a serial killer. She is dangerous. There's no way she should ever be let out of prison.
But we don't know that she murder 9 people. that is very important.
