Between Casey Marie Anthony, who waited a month to report her daughter’s death to authorities, Mary Ann Cotton, who likely killed three husbands and 11 of her children, and Susan Smith, who drowned her two young kids by driving her car into a lake, there are more than enough notoriously terrible mothers out there.

  5. It’s sickening some of these people got life imprisonment. You murder or rape someone, you should be fed to the fucking Lions live at half time of the Super Bowl. Sick of murderers and rapists getting a healthier lifestyle then some veterans out there. “You killed all of your children? I sentence you to life under shelter, daily 3 course meals, and only 3 hours of tv. I SAID ONLY 3 HOURS YOU MURDERER!”
