I happen to know that she did meth. She also had her oldest — her son — bathing, feeding, and otherwise raising his sisters. Nothing was done in public to my knowlege, however she is a very disturbed person. Even without having found out about this. She is a very irresponsible person who deserves every bit of punishment that can be doled out to someone of her experiences.

Thankfully, the children don’t have contact with her or their father(s) and are being cared for by people who love them.

I did obscure the names and ages given your concerns, but the cat was already out of the bag before my article and there’s likely no way to undo that, even if it is appropriate to do so. The names and ages may not be accurate as I stated, but they remain publicly available via the original source.

It’s a tragedy these kids are in such a mess. However, they are going to suffer more unless they get help to recover from their situation. Hiding what happened to their mother and them isn’t going to help them get that help.

What will help the most is if people focus on fixing the child abuse / mental illness cycle and become well aware of tragedies like this one, what the warning signs were, and how they could have helped fix the problems before they got worse. Hiding information may not serve this purpose. Acknowledging the ugly facts and treating the kids with compassion and therapy may do so, however.

Unfortunately, mainstream media doesn’t typically go into much depth on the why in cases like these. It may turn out that drugs or money were behind the immediate motivation, but what created such a messed up person in the first place? That should be a major focus, but unfortunately we may never find out unless people close to the case speak out about it honestly and publicly.

It is irresponsible, if this story is true, to put the names of the kids and ages. One doesn’t want them to suffer any more then necessary later in life. Please remove their names and ages.
