Some ppl have a hard time speaking about such a terrible situation but she comes across so insincere. Interesting none of the prison staff spoke on her behalf.
She cried almost the same way 30 years ago! Not one time did she own up what she did to her babies today. She’s in the place she needs to remain at. It’s terrible for David, every 2 years he needs to go to the parole board?! What an injustice there. My thoughts and prayers for him and his family.
What an awful parole law ~ every two years the fear will be building up in the victims’ families. They will never really have closure. I come from Florida, where life means life without the possibility of parole.
I remember when this happened. She strapped children that she carried in her body into their seats and backed her vehicle into water and let them drown. She was on television begging for their return, blamed a black man and had people looking for these children. It was reported on the news her older son appeared to have tried to get his brother out of his seat. I remember this CLEARLY. Releasing her would be a travesty.
I can't get that picture out of my mind of those two innocent babies strapped in their car seats and the car plunging into the water, sinking, the fear and confusion and pain they felt as the water suffocated them. She should never get out. Life and no parole every two years. Rest in Peace Michael and Alex 🙏🕯🕯🙏⚖️⚖️
@@tamararutland-mills9530yes! And the lawyer was sure to belabor the point about SS and her boyfriend lover she had and murdered her boys for,the lawyer emphasized she didn't do it for wanting the boyfriend like everyone was saying!! Ridiculous!! It was perfectly clear that's why she did it!!
I feel the same way, Karen. All I can think about is them helplessly strapped in their car seats seeing their mother outside the window as the car rolls into the water. Sitting buoyant for 6 long min as it filled with the cold water and those terrified confused little boys wondering what's going on, where's Mama, we're getting wet and the water is getting deeper. Then what they experienced once the car was submerged. It's unfathomable. I remember the day she and David were on the news pleading to the media. I was 17 yrs old and I thought she doesn't behave like I thought a mother would behave if a stranger just kidnapped their child. I was picturing someone hysterically crying, inconsolable, panicked, falling to their knees in grief and worry. She was nothing like that. She was to calm, to coherent. It's been burned in my mind all these years because she didn't act right. The only mother I had ever heard of, at that time, that had taken their children's lives was Diane Downs. I was appalled at how a mother could do something so horrific for the attention of a man. It was the worst thing I had ever heard. Then here comes Susan. Doing the same horrific crime for the same damn reason, a man that doesn't wasn't children. Those two women haunted me because Mamas wouldn't do that to their babies. 30 yrs later, all of it comes flooding back. Why didn't she leave. Be a deadbeat mother, forget about them and run off with her lover. At least David would have gotten to raise his children and they would have gotten to live their lives. It would have been selfish and disgusting but it's better than being a baby killer. I don't even live in that state and this case has affected me all these years. I'm so glad the parole board did the right thing. David suffers tremendously all these years later, he wears it in his face. He's been destroyed. His pain is as raw as it was 30 yrs ago. As for her, I don't know what the hell she kept wiping at with that Kleenex cause there wasn't a wet spot anywhere on her face or leaking from her eyes. She's a coldhearted monster and I hope she dies behind bars. This poor father breaks my heart. He deserves proper justice.
My sons were year older than her sons. My sons are David & Michael. Michael and Alex looked just like my sons. I held my sons strongly in bed that entire night, sometimes crying and my boys would get me Kleenex and wipe my eyes and face. They’d say we’re ok.
This is a woman who doesn't deserve to breathe free air. Hearing the statements from the prosecutors, family and David were heartbreaking. So glad she was denied.
She should NEVER get out! The family of little Michael and Alex get a life sentence, and so should her! She hasn’t been rehabilitated! She’s learned how to manipulate ever better now! My heart was absolutely breaking for Mr. Smith today!
Her lawyer’s opening statement pretty well did her in. NO! This is not all about Susan. Everything has always been about Susan. This is ALSO Michael and Alexander’s special day. Their lives were stolen by the one they loved with all of their little hearts. It was the ultimate ultimate most complete betrayal of their love that there ever can be. May she never walk on our streets again.
Not even really that much better at manipulating. Thought she would have practiced a little better… she’s still got them same old, fake, whiny, country crocodile tears… good Lordy Lordy Lordy…
@@kerrolinad3020 not to mention apparently she was hyper sexual in prison. She talks about immature mistakes. She was in her mid twenties by the time she was convicted. She was too old to not know better. She has no ability to have remorse so she is a sociopath. You can’t fix someone without a conscience. Anyone having contact with her are able to be manipulated. It’s obvious she is using “mental health” as a crutch. You have a captive audience with Susan and she hasn’t changed one bit in 30 years. Her inability to be held accountable for her actions shows in this video.
Her lawyer did his job trelling her to show remorse with her crying and to admit guilt two factors all parole boards look for but it did not over ride the many people who stood for David and his sons She did the same crying number and even sounds the same as she back when she claimed she was car jacked and her sons were in the car And Mr whats his name ( the minister ) did not help any by suggesting the guards used her for their pleasure,,,,still lying I assume No mistake was made by the decision of this panel imo
It's intriguing that one who is rightfully imprisoned for two deaths, yet the rich and powerful can be free to reign over America. The ramifications, the collateral damage from this woman's actions linger long and the damage is unfathomable. Your American (SCOTUS) court system is corrupted by political power, yet ordinary people are subject to a seemingly appropriate justice system. It's a shame that America's justice system falls mainly on the not so rich.. What's happened to the America where civil rights have no longer any sway?
WHAT A LOAD OF BS IF YOU LOVE YOUR CHILDREN YOU DON'T MURDER THEM. CRYING FAKE TEARS, NOT BUYING IT. ALL SHE IS DOING IS ACTING SHE DOESN'T MEAN A WORD OF IT. SHE NEVER LOVED THOSE BOY'S.
It’s awful that David Smith is going to have to live through this unnecessary torment every two years now. She is where she belongs for the rest of her life…period! No question about it! My two eldest sons are actually named Michael and Alex (Born in 1990 & 1993 respectively) so very close to the age of David’s sons. Mine are two fine grown men in their thirties now, but David’s sons never even got to grow up and he has missed so much due to their mother’s actions. For God’s sake keep her in there!
@@janethunter6653Tommy,the prosecutor I think he is, said the community doesn't want her back in the area, even if her brother or someone is willing to let her stay with!! She'd need to go somewhere unknown.
Susan Smith's histrionics did not move me. Those tears are toxic waste. I lived thousands of miles away and in another country, but I remember every minute of the trauma she caused. I could not get the picture out of my mind, of her standing calmly on the shore watching as that car filled up. I'm so sad that David Smith will be forced to re-live this atrocity over and over for as long as he (or she) lives. I wish him, most of all, peace.
She could get a free college education and she has what yet to get an associates degree. And she uses her fake religion to manipulate others and believing she has been redeemed. watch some Pearl Harry, and you will see the biggest liars and manipulators where the biggest crosses hanging around their necks.
STOP this nonsense Susan Smith if you have love for your children like you said because you murdered them in a horrific way you should remain in prison for the rest of your life. STOP being selfish you gave those babies the death sentence without the possibility parole. Ndoki 😮
and she should not go before the parole board and cause more pain for David every two years. She should decline next parole hearing and every single one after.
Families of murders should not be punished and traumatized every 2 yrs when these monsters are up for patrol, once denied parol it should be a minimum of anothe d 5 yrs before asking for parole again. If a monster like her was truly sorry for her actions then she shouldn't even ask for parole, asking for parole shows how sorry she truely is. Those fake tears of hers is so sickening.😢😢
She should never be released from Prison for her lie's and for what she did. She could have just left her Husband and gotten a Divorce and given the boys to their Father. I think that she should have gotten the Death Penalty not life and as you see the only thing that she is sorry for is that she's in prison right where she belongs and I Pray that she never gets out ever !!
Yeah there’s no way this family and community should be dragged into this mess every 2 years! 😅this is so wrong but I’m glad they got denied for Michael and Alex and she truly deserves it! We support you David!!
Here in Arkansas the man who ‘SA’d’ my 5 and 7 year old nieces for years (pedophile, read between the lines) gets a parole hearing every year, started after his 3rd year in prison (out of 20 sentenced). Though not as horrific as murder, every summer it is SOUL CRUSHING to have to plead with the parole board to not let this man out. I can’t even fathom going every two years to beg them not to release this murderer.
There's no parole for those sweet baby's who had their entire lives ahead of them. She robbed them of growing up, if she didn't want them anymore give them to their Dad. She didn't have to murder those sweet baby's. Let the MURDERER rot behind bars until she is deceased.
I remember when this happened over 30 yrs ago an she caught a major chaos. She had other choices. She could’ve turned them babies over to any family member and I know that she was married. Come on people need to quit making excuses. She also calls a very violent races issue. She needs to stay right where she is I’m sorry it is what it is. She took two innocent babies lives, my opinion 🦋🙏🏼🦋🙏🏼
I was watching this live in my living room & everything that took place. I remember Susan Smith telling police that a black man took her car with her babies in it. I remember how the young black men were treated by some police officers trying to find the perpetrator so they could locate those two angels. It damn near started a race war. She has the same manipulative personality she had 30 years ago. She can't change she is who she is & it's appalling that Life doesn't mean Natural Life! David has suffered the most & he shouldn't have to deal with her every two years when she's up for parole. David you're a strong good man & you're boys are so proud of their Dad. I'm so happy that you found love again & have a beautiful family. I have never forgotten about you or Michael & Alex. Susan likely is a narcissist with a personality disorder that Drs say is untreatable. Seeing her cry & talk today brought me back to that horrific day. She hasn't changed & she only helps those in prison who have something Susan wants. She's a self serving manipulative narcissist who isn't sorry for anyone but herself! She's a child killer & always will be remembered for that. Tommy Pope looks great we're all a few decades older but he did such a great job thirty years ago & he nailed it again today. He knows exactly who Susan Smith is & what harm she'd put Michael through if she was ever released on parole. Sending my heartfelt praise & well wishes to all those who we're involved 30 years.ago & present again today! ❤️ Ontario, 🇨🇦 🐾
@@lorricannon189 , oh yes I Absolutely agree with 💯 it definitely 🤬 me off how she could have gave the boys to the dad , an just walked away 🙏 instead of being a selfish an twat waffle 🤬 Do forgive on the words , it does 🤬 me off . The same words , I used 30 yrs ago when it happened. Child are innocent 🥹.. They are blessings an miracles from above . 🙏 Ma have a wonderful evening , prayers an blessings your way for ya an your family 🙏🫂🦃
Absolutely not you cost too much pain, too much, sorrow. She’s not gonna change. It’s all about Susan and her life and what’s in the way she’ll get rid of.
These babies didn't get to experience life. Now, Susan should continue to face the Piper and live out her life sentence in prison. Society now speaks for these babies. For the boys 👼 🙏
Do not even think of trying to label this as post partum because it was not! Not by a long stretch. She was in love with a man who didn't want children - so she took care of that. I remember this whole thing so vividly.
And her lawyer just tried to dismiss this not a minute after I typed it. Why even mention it if it wasn't true? Apprently she was a social climber - and What was reported at the time was that the young man was one of means and did not want a ready-made family - so she took care of that.
This woman should stay in jail for the rest of her life. She should actually stay in jail for two lifetimes. A life for a life, that sounds fair to me. The family of the boys have to worry about her getting released every time she comes up for parole. She right where she needs to be let’s leave her there.
I am so glad to see the former prosecutor and sheriff and law enforcement there to support the family - so manu times in parole hearings they dont bother showing up.
I can't stand this reporter. She's pushing for him to crack for her BIG TV moment. Leave the man alone and quit forcibly trying to drag him down for personal gain. Lift this Father up.
Omg i know, and that soft whispering "yeah yeah" made me want to turn off the sound. But I wanted to hear what David had to say. This reporter is really annoying!
Good I’m glad she was denied parole. I don’t believe she was sincere I feel like tears were fake. It was all about her and not those boys. She chose to have an affair and she chose to let those boys die.. committing adultery is a sin in killing someone or somebody is also a sin. She committed many things while she’s been in prison for the past 30 years. She does not deserve to be free.
As a mother I could never do any harm to my children but if for some reason they expired by my hands! I would gladly stay in prison for the rest of my life! She’s shameless
She said she had made some dumb choices "in there." Did she forget the dumb choices she made "outside of there" that put her where she is? It is sad to say, but she needs to stay there.
💙🕯Michael & Alex🕯💙 So heartwarming to see so many ppl show up for those Boys and their Father but also heartbreaking to witness their pain. Her "tears" today flashed me right back to 1994 seeing her crying on the news. Fake manipulator. Her supporters should be ashamed...they wouldn't even speak those sweet boys names.Thank you Parole Board for making the correct decision. Please continue to keep her out of society.
Tell us about your recent infraction. Some lady did it. I trusted her and it got me in trouble. STILL not able to take accountability for even the littlest thing. So so sad… she feels nothing for anyone accept herself.
I hope and pray this woman will not be loosed on our streets again. Sarah Boone is another one I am praying for in this regard. May these two women come to an epiphany over how their sins have ruined so many other lives, and may they call out to God for forgiveness and change.
I know everyone wants to speak about Susan but David you are a phenomenal human and father. I'm so glad that you are still here to not only live your life, but to keep the memory of your boys alive through every moment of your life. Im so happy you have a beautiful and supportive family by your side and may your faith keep you strong till you see them again.
Justice for these 2 beautiful children whom she denied life... She doesn't deserve freedom she should also to be denied life for the rest of her life.... She can continue to pay for her horrible crime behind bars... Forever
😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭 my heart & prayers go out to you Mr. David Smith, may the Peace of All Mighty God be with you Sir. 🙏🏽🙏🏽🙏🏽🙏🏽 & Angels Wings Cover your Family 🕊❤🕊❤️🕊❤️
She used God and religion to justify rationalize her choice to drowned her children because they would supposedly be better off without her as she said. God religion has been the source of the most horrendous pain imaginable so how about you leave God out of it and just being reality, not magical thinking and hold her accountable, prayers mean nothing because that’s only magical thinking
At 5:06 of this video, Susan Smith 's lawyer had the nerve to say it is a mental health issue. No it was a mother didn't want to be a mother anymore and straight-up killed her precious little babies over a man that didn't want her. These precious souls' deaths were horrible. Then she lied and said a Black man carjacked her and kidnapped her 2 little babies. This woman needs to stay in jail forever.
I went to high school with Susan --and i was in school with her brother in law, David's brother from elementary school. This woman did damage to the whole community in so many ways. In high school, she was always one of the girls that always was a winner even if she had to make someone feel bad while doing so. Basically, she was "better than everyone else" at everything. And she wasnt really a nice person. That's what i know. My dad was in the recovery effort and he will never be able to forget what he saw. The baby had pulled his hair out in terror and his older brother had grabbed the rolled down window clinging to it.
S. Smith's attorney had a job to do---I couldn't listen to him because of his "umms". His speech/her speech didn't convince me that she should be granted parole. It sounded the same as 30 years ago. Such a horrific crime. Prayers for David & his family.😢
can't believe 30 years already. I remember when this played out real time. A lesson to think about. Every day, she thinks about what she did and cries, the system is working.
@@kindness12345 If u read the comment U see that i did watch as this unfolded. this is different then she was trying to fool everyone this time it is all about her and she does not like it. no one will ever know what she is really thinking though
She did not seek help. She did not allow the father to raise them. The children were not allowed to grow up & live their lives. Throw away the key to her ever having freedom.
What is sad is the “she had a choice and she chose death for her children.” I’m reminded of all the children dying because their mothers have a choice too.
They have a wonderful father. The deep pain he still feels and you can see him wanting to enjoy his life now and he just can't. I'm sure he has moments but I imagine the turmoil he goes through at the same time.
Noted instantly, when they asked her about her jail infractions it was "Well that wasn't really my fault." She's ASPD and she killed her own children. That woman is NEVER safe to let out of prison. The end.
I don't think she has any remorse whatsoever. That car floated for SIX. WHOLE. MINUTES before it sank. She had plenty of time to change her mind and save her babies. But she didn't, and lied to the police for over a week. She's just as heartless now as she was 30 years ago and I hope she spends the rest of her miserable life in prison.

I believed dave smith more then Susan smith n yes she cried like 30 yrs ago same I thought same not believable
What an awful parole law ~ every two years the fear will be building up in the victims’ families. They will never really have closure. I come from Florida, where life means life without the possibility of parole.
@ my thoughts as well, they’ll never really find closure having to be there every 2 years. Awful!
I felt so bad for him it is not fair that he has to go throw that every 2 years. They should lock her up forever,

I cried for her 2 sons, NOT for her! Keep her behind bars for a long time!
When does it start??
For the rest of her life!
I agree. Just seeing footage of that ramp at the lake had me crying. It brought it all back. I don't know how she could do that.

Why did she even talk? She didn't say anything. She hasn't learnt anything or bettered herself in any way.

Here in Arkansas the man who ‘SA’d’ my 5 and 7 year old nieces for years (pedophile, read between the lines) gets a parole hearing every year, started after his 3rd year in prison (out of 20 sentenced). Though not as horrific as murder, every summer it is SOUL CRUSHING to have to plead with the parole board to not let this man out. I can’t even fathom going every two years to beg them not to release this murderer.
NO PAROLE! David never gets paroled from the nightmare she put him in. 😢❤
I cannot believe it’s been 30 years. I remember this like it was yesterday.
I don't believe a word she says. She's putting on a show just like she did back then.
I felt the same as well listening to her cry and go on. I just wanted her to shut up. I have ZER0 sympathy for her.
The fact she thinks she deserves parole is in itself outrageous and that she has the audacity to sit there wishing.
She turned on the same waterworks when she was pleading for her sons return.
Oh, yes, that evil black man who carjacked her and took her babies...🙄 I remember her fake tears very well, and I didn't believe them then, either.
I felt the same as well listening to her cry and go on. I just wanted her to shut up. I have ZER0 sympathy for her.
I’m so glad she didn’t get out.
That is one evil woman. My heart aches for the father of those boys
There's no parole for those sweet baby's who had their entire lives ahead of them. She robbed them of growing up, if she didn't want them anymore give them to their Dad. She didn't have to murder those sweet baby's. Let the MURDERER rot behind bars until she is deceased.
Stay exactly where you are at !!!!?
This despicable excuse of a mother, must never be released - EVER!
I remember when this happened over 30 yrs ago an she caught a major chaos. She had other choices. She could’ve turned them babies over to any family member and I know that she was married. Come on people need to quit making excuses. She also calls a very violent races issue. She needs to stay right where she is I’m sorry it is what it is. She took two innocent babies lives, my opinion 🦋🙏🏼🦋🙏🏼
I was watching this live in my living room & everything that took place. I remember Susan Smith telling police that a black man took her car with her babies in it. I remember how the young black men were treated by some police officers trying to find the perpetrator so they could locate those two angels. It damn near started a race war. She has the same manipulative personality she had 30 years ago. She can't change she is who she is & it's appalling that Life doesn't mean Natural Life! David has suffered the most & he shouldn't have to deal with her every two years when she's up for parole. David you're a strong good man & you're boys are so proud of their Dad. I'm so happy that you found love again & have a beautiful family. I have never forgotten about you or Michael & Alex. Susan likely is a narcissist with a personality disorder that Drs say is untreatable. Seeing her cry & talk today brought me back to that horrific day. She hasn't changed & she only helps those in prison who have something Susan wants. She's a self serving manipulative narcissist who isn't sorry for anyone but herself! She's a child killer & always will be remembered for that. Tommy Pope looks great we're all a few decades older but he did such a great job thirty years ago & he nailed it again today. He knows exactly who Susan Smith is & what harm she'd put Michael through if she was ever released on parole. Sending my heartfelt praise & well wishes to all those who we're involved 30 years.ago & present again today! ❤️ Ontario, 🇨🇦 🐾
@@lorricannon189 , oh yes I Absolutely agree with 💯 it definitely 🤬 me off how she could have gave the boys to the dad , an just walked away 🙏 instead of being a selfish an twat waffle 🤬 Do forgive on the words , it does 🤬 me off . The same words , I used 30 yrs ago when it happened. Child are innocent 🥹..
They are blessings an miracles from above . 🙏
Ma have a wonderful evening , prayers an blessings your way for ya an your family 🙏🫂🦃
I pray they don’t let
Her out. She is a danger
To children.
Yes
She's a danger to anyone because she has no remorse.
Absolutely not you cost too much pain, too much, sorrow. She’s not gonna change. It’s all about Susan and her life and what’s in the way she’ll get rid of.
These babies didn't get to experience life. Now, Susan should continue to face the Piper and live out her life sentence in prison. Society now speaks for these babies. For the boys 👼 🙏
Do not even think of trying to label this as post partum because it was not! Not by a long stretch. She was in love with a man who didn't want children - so she took care of that. I remember this whole thing so vividly.
And her lawyer just tried to dismiss this not a minute after I typed it. Why even mention it if it wasn't true? Apprently she was a social climber - and What was reported at the time was that the young man was one of means and did not want a ready-made family - so she took care of that.
This woman should stay in jail for the rest of her life. She should actually stay in jail for two lifetimes. A life for a life, that sounds fair to me. The family of the boys have to worry about her getting released every time she comes up for parole. She right where she needs to be let’s leave her there.
I am so glad to see the former prosecutor and sheriff and law enforcement there to support the family - so manu times in parole hearings they dont bother showing up.
I can't stand this reporter. She's pushing for him to crack for her BIG TV moment. Leave the man alone and quit forcibly trying to drag him down for personal gain. Lift this Father up.
Omg i know, and that soft whispering "yeah yeah" made me want to turn off the sound. But I wanted to hear what David had to say. This reporter is really annoying!
Omg this lady's empathy towards David sounds so fake, can't stand her!
In my personal opinion, I say 👎 NO parole.
Still talking from her little black heart.
Good I’m glad she was denied parole. I don’t believe she was sincere I feel like tears were fake. It was all about her and not those boys. She chose to have an affair and she chose to let those boys die.. committing adultery is a sin in killing someone or somebody is also a sin. She committed many things while she’s been in prison for the past 30 years. She does not deserve to be free.
I felt the same as well listening to her cry and go on. I just wanted her to shut up. I have ZER0 sympathy for her.
As a mother I could never do any harm to my children but if for some reason they expired by my hands! I would gladly stay in prison for the rest of my life! She’s shameless
She said she had made some dumb choices "in there." Did she forget the dumb choices she made "outside of there" that put her where she is? It is sad to say, but she needs to stay there.
With her answers, I'm convinced she didn't want to get out. There's no way, after 30 years of pondering this day that this is the best she could do.
💙🕯Michael & Alex🕯💙
So heartwarming to see so many ppl show up for those Boys and their Father but also heartbreaking to witness their pain. Her "tears" today flashed me right back to 1994 seeing her crying on the news. Fake manipulator. Her supporters should be ashamed...they wouldn't even speak those sweet boys names.Thank you Parole Board for making the correct decision. Please continue to keep her out of society.
Tell us about your recent infraction.
Some lady did it. I trusted her and it got me in trouble.
STILL not able to take accountability for even the littlest thing.
So so sad… she feels nothing for anyone accept herself.
There's a lot to say, but in a nutshell, when one learns who she is, will instantly realise that this is even beyond the ridiculous!!!
Easy way to tell if someone is genuine in their tears: if you feel emotional too. I feel nothing watching this woman cry. Keep her in prison.
This would never be me, but if it was I would have given the most powerful statement and shown the most remorse that I could.
My two sons were the same age as hers at the time. Devastatingly unbelievable she could do that.
She had 30 years to practice crying and she still can’t do it.
I hope and pray this woman will not be loosed on our streets again. Sarah Boone is another one I am praying for in this regard. May these two women come to an epiphany over how their sins have ruined so many other lives, and may they call out to God for forgiveness and change.
This is the most painful parole hearing. Those babies did not get a second chance. No do over for them.
This person should never be paroled. NOT EVER.
I know everyone wants to speak about Susan but David you are a phenomenal human and father. I'm so glad that you are still here to not only live your life, but to keep the memory of your boys alive through every moment of your life. Im so happy you have a beautiful and supportive family by your side and may your faith keep you strong till you see them again.
Justice for these 2 beautiful children whom she denied life... She doesn't deserve freedom she should also to be denied life for the rest of her life.... She can continue to pay for her horrible crime behind bars... Forever
The prosecutors who spoke were so powerful. You can tell this has stuck with them for the last 30 years and probably will for the rest of their lives.
From Canada, I remember this case, it was a global impact
DENIED
Love ❤️ to The Boys, Their Dad and his Family and supporters. Love ❤️ from Poland 🇵🇱 ❤
She murdered her beautiful boys 😢😢
14:10 I’ve been so depressed I could t eat or sleep and have been hospitalized. Never once did I ever think of hurting my child. NOT ONCE.
She SHOULD NOT GET OUT!
😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭 my heart & prayers go out to you Mr. David Smith, may the Peace of All Mighty God be with you Sir. 🙏🏽🙏🏽🙏🏽🙏🏽 & Angels Wings Cover your Family 🕊❤🕊❤️🕊❤️
She used God and religion to justify rationalize her choice to drowned her children because they would supposedly be better off without her as she said. God religion has been the source of the most horrendous pain imaginable so how about you leave God out of it and just being reality, not magical thinking and hold her accountable, prayers mean nothing because that’s only magical thinking
I feel so much for David, Tiffany and Savannah, as she lost her big brothers.
I love this prosecutor! He poured his heart & soul into this case.
DAVID SMITH WAS MY CLASSMATE, ❤
😭fake waterworks
I’m glad there’s a fast forward option on here that older man defending her was making me sick
Don’t let her out ever
I think he a bit senile.
At 5:06 of this video, Susan
Smith 's lawyer had the nerve to say it is a mental health issue. No it was a mother didn't want to be a mother anymore and straight-up killed her precious little babies over a man that didn't want her. These precious souls' deaths were horrible. Then she lied and said a Black man carjacked her and kidnapped her 2 little babies. This woman needs to stay in jail forever.
😢 My heart goes out to David. May God bless his soul & ease his heartache.
I went to high school with Susan --and i was in school with her brother in law, David's brother from elementary school. This woman did damage to the whole community in so many ways. In high school, she was always one of the girls that always was a winner even if she had to make someone feel bad while doing so. Basically, she was "better than everyone else" at everything. And she wasnt really a nice person. That's what i know. My dad was in the recovery effort and he will never be able to forget what he saw. The baby had pulled his hair out in terror and his older brother had grabbed the rolled down window clinging to it.
S. Smith's attorney had a job to do---I couldn't listen to him because of his "umms". His speech/her speech didn't convince me that she should be granted parole. It sounded the same as 30 years ago. Such a horrific crime. Prayers for David & his family.😢
NO SHE SHOULD NEVER GET OUT
can't believe 30 years already. I remember when this played out real time. A lesson to think about. Every day, she thinks about what she did and cries, the system is working.
That’s if you believe she truly cry’s for what she did.
@@kindness12345 Yeah well she is balling her eyes out today.
@ did you see her 30 years ago? Pleading with the public?? No difference
@@kindness12345 If u read the comment U see that i did watch as this unfolded. this is different then she was trying to fool everyone this time it is all about her and she does not like it. no one will ever know what she is really thinking though
Me too, and it was absolutely horrific
She did not seek help. She did not allow the father to raise them. The children were not allowed to grow up & live their lives. Throw away the key to her ever having freedom.
She had the nerve to say I know God has forgiven me, I hope you all show the same grace!!!!! Wrong thing to say Susan.
Heartbreaking 30 years ago. Still so Heartbreaking for David Smith may God be with him always ❤
I hope she never gets out
What is sad is the “she had a choice and she chose death for her children.” I’m reminded of all the children dying because their mothers have a choice too.
They have a wonderful father. The deep pain he still feels and you can see him wanting to enjoy his life now and he just can't. I'm sure he has moments but I imagine the turmoil he goes through at the same time.
Noo dont get out
Noted instantly, when they asked her about her jail infractions it was "Well that wasn't really my fault." She's ASPD and she killed her own children. That woman is NEVER safe to let out of prison. The end.
No Parole. Keep her locked up.
I would not trust her with my dogs or cats.
My exact thoughts👆
Parole, really? Where’s the death penalty? We could stop this kind of horrific crime very easily, but so many do not have moral clarity.
PRAYERS FOR DAVID SMITH & FAMILY.❤️🙏❤️
I remember this case vividly. Susan should never get out!
Excellent result.
I don't think she has any remorse whatsoever. That car floated for SIX. WHOLE. MINUTES before it sank. She had plenty of time to change her mind and save her babies. But she didn't, and lied to the police for over a week. She's just as heartless now as she was 30 years ago and I hope she spends the rest of her miserable life in prison.
Nice try, but NO CIGAR to her longtime friends speaking on her behalf.
Every time I hear someone say hum hum hum hum, I think of Judge Judy saying hum is not an answer!!
She needs to stay in prison for the rest of her life .
For an attorney he says um a lot.
So glad she was denied of parole
Yeah well her kids DIDNT GET TO HAVE A CHOICE!!!
This lawyer says "Ummm" wat too much. I'm already annoyed.
