This wasn’t negligent homicide this was intentional homicide. She killed that little girl on purpose. No one that has access to Fentanyl doesn’t know what it is, especially someone that worked in health care services. I can understand giving her a pass if she gave the kid a rash with hot Tiger Balm, but this is ridiculous. That woman was trying to kill that child.
Not this again. :rolleyes:

*Qadgop the Mercotan slithered flatly around the after-bulge of the crashed tranship. One claw dug into the meters-thick armour of pure neutronium, then another. Its terrible xmex-like snout locked on. Its zymolosely polydactile tongue crunched out, crashed down, rasped across. Slurp! Slurp! At each abrasive stroke the groove in the tranship’s plating deepened and Qadgop leered more fiercely. Fools! Did they think that the airlessness of absolute space, the heatlessness of absolute zero, the yieldlessness of absolute neutronium, could stop QADGOP THE MERCOTAN? And the stowaway, that human wench Cait, cowering in helpless terror just beyond this thin and fragile wall…" *
Wow. Reading that gave me a hard-on.
DrDeth:
It’s not Cait, it’s Cynthia !
And just to stay on topic, I’m stunned the woman didn’t get prison time. Flagrant and illegal misuse of a Schedule II narcotic, resulting in the death of a child! I don’t get it at all.

Never underestimate the stupidity of people.

She pled guilty and they gave her a suspended sentence? I guess the purpose of that is preventing she gets any more children to care for.
Pretty sure they wouldn’t put her in charge of the prison nursery. :rolleyes:

This is completely faulty logic. You kill your own kids if you can’t stand them or take them to that state where you can drop them off if they are under the age of 18. You don’t kill off foster kids because you can’t stand them, cause then you don’t get the check anymore. You lock unwanted foster kids in the closet and starve them within an inch of their lives. Everybody knows this, DUH!
I have heard stories about people who cause the death (or injury?) of their kid(s) in order to get attention and sympathy from the community, although I imagine it’s more rare IRL than on TV.
