"TIMS LAW" She should have been vetted before being allowed to take bar. This judge made me cry. What a great man. He said exactly what I was thinking and hoping 🙏 💕💖
The fact little Timothy is safer in his casket, 6 feet under than in the arms of his mother/brother is soul wrenching. May his imagine always comes in her mind whenever she blinks.
The Judges speech was incredibly powerful. I’ve re watched this entire trial at least three times now. She is awful, evil, vile. “The world now knows what you are, who you are. You can’t hide in the darkness anymore.”.. chills. May Timothy rest, finally, in peace
I've watched her testimony over and over trying to understand her lies. It's so obvious. She really is the worst liar ever. RIP Timothy! No more living in hell for you. I really feel the father should be charged for neglect or something. She was NOT suppose to have Timothy. I bet it wasn't because of the stroke that her husband left. He was probably being abused tho since he was crippled. He managed to escape whereas Timothy did not. 💔
@@teresagillmer9464I get your reasoning, but in a case as heinous as hers, life in prison will be far worse. The inmates won’t take kindly overall to someone who starved a child to death, she wants to be a victim and will spend forever being denied that reality. Putting her out of her misery is too quick, and too compassionate, to be used for such a person, that ends her self imposed suffering. She shouldn’t be allowed to skirt this.
Pretty telling that she didnt cry when her children were giving statements about their younger brother but as soon as her attorney started talking about her and making her out to be the victim she crys and shows emotional. Typical psycho behavior.
Yes! I am so tired of people making excuses for bad behavior! Unless you are an Un medicated schizophrenic in a psychotic break... There is zero excuse for anything!
That's just what I was about to say- is there any proof that she was ever abused? I know that sometimes there's not, but given the fact that she'll lie as easily as breathing to save her sorry butt I don't think anyone with more than 2 brain cells would just take her word for it.@bobbieforeit88
This judge and prosecutor: 👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏 This is a very rare compliment coming from me. I’ve been in the crim law field for 20 years and I’ve seen so many abusive prosecutors and judges but this DA and this judge have my respect.
Yeah. Agreed. How does she explain that her sister, managed to go her whole life, without torturing anyone, to death? This is one of those situations, where you wish she could be sentenced, to the same treatment she dished out. Absolutely enraging.
Let preface this and state that I am in no way shape or form trying to antagonize anyone.... The way I understood the mention of her previous abuse was not to excuse her behavior, but to support the claim that at some point "something broke inside her." The lawyer stood on the ground that there is an explanation, but medical comprehension hasn't caught up yet and her previous abuse factors into a unknown diagnosis." I don't understand your POV and have explained mine in the hope you could kindly educate me.?.
She was punishing her son for being hungry. She was punishing her son for being curious. She was punishing her son because she’s a torturer and an abuser.
She probably was the same way when she was in Timothy's age, and she hated seeing herself in her child, so she tortured him. FN narcissistic sociopath.
@@Amanda-cn3pk She'll most likely be in SEG (segregation unit) and not in GP (general population) for her own safety. She hurt a child & the other inmates would definitely have their way with her!

It was very touching 😢. If you go on their social media pages you will see so many pictures of him 😇😭. He's was a handsome young guy with some gorgeous blue 💙 eyes!!!
The judge is correct. She knew exactly what she was doing, it wasn’t unintentional neglect; it was deliberate torture, because he was the least likely to be able to fight back. She is despicable and dangerous to anyone who is in her life, especially children.
She was charged in Oklahoma for child abuse. She volunteered to leave the home rather than having them declare her unfit..which was what the courts had decided.

For some reason, the judge talking about sitting in his car contemplating this case made me emotional. I don’t think I’ve ever heard a judge express the impact a case has had on them personally. I appreciate the humanity that showed. I’m also fond of her attorney. He had a really hard job but he seems like a sweet and compassionate man.
Her attorney tried to say "one bad decision" or whatever bs that was. Definitely looks like a 😈 demon with horns. Her heart & soul are beyond broken, she doesn't have either one.
Same. I really appreciate his talent and skill in trying to eulogize Timothy with dignity and compassion. As a judge and lawyer, I doubt he ever used his gift with words in a more uplifting and humane way. Great job!
The judge is brilliant. And thank you for mentioning the defence attorney. A lot of people throw emotionally driven hate at these attorneys because of who they are representing. I watched an interview with him and he said this is the worst case he has ever worked on. And he’s work on serial redrum cases. He said everything he sees, goes home with him and stays with him. As it would law enforcement, prosecutors, judge and jury.
"She made one mistake" ... that she chose to do over and over and over. Thats no longer a mistake, thats a choice. The judge is spot on, she knew exactly what she was doing and the fact she went and hid things shows she knew it was wrong. Shame on you Shanda. RIP Timothy. Well done judge. Jail for life is deserved.
Thank you to the judge for caring more about Tim than the adults in his life. The judges words made me cry. Thank you for also allowing Tim to keep some of his dignity by not allowing the pictures of what he looked like at the end.
If there was a god he would have helped him in the first place. He won't help nobody out there cos your imaginary god does not exist. 21st century, techonology age and people still believe in such bs :)
Wasn't that just an humble gesture to be so meticulous with her educational achievements. If that soulless witch had given that child a tad of that type of concern, he might still be here. I refuse to honor her with the title of Mom.
OMG I could not believe that they were correcting her educational accomplishments big effing deal !! I too can't even consider her with the title of a mother!! Both of my adult children have passed away and I'll tell you I myself am dead so for her to sit there and jot down notes is the most disgusting vile thing I've ever seen in my life.. Those two other poor adult children that spoke on the behalf of their little brother Timmy tore me up completely !! R.est I.n P.aradise Sweet boy 💔🙏😩
She also at the end was concerned about the 5K Restitution Fee cuz she wont be able to order stuff from the prison commissary, if she has to pay it. Can you believe her!!? That's all she was there for- to correct the record, as far as her education, and fight to not pay the restitution fee. That's for her own son's funeral btw. That's what she DOESNT WANT TO PAY. Otherwise she wouldnt have shown up. Monster.
On one side of the window snow is falling and looks like a beautiful fairytale, on the other side of the window, ugliness. Light and Dark. Thank you Judge for being so eloquent. Justice has been served. RIP Timothy may you soar high with the stars.
To everyone who worked this case, thank you! I appreciate you more than you will ever know. Because of all of you, little Timothy got justice. Please know that. I pray for your healing and the haunting memories of that little boy turn him into the most beautiful Angel in your dreams. That is what he would want. ❤
She is an attorney. Not a licensed attorney anymore because she was convicted of crimes of moral turpitude, but she will always be an attorney. She went to college, went to law school, and passed the Bar Exam. That can't be stripped from her, unfortunately. She's obviously so enamored with her own intelligence that I wish there was a way she could be stripped of the education and accomplishments, but knowing that she'll forever be relegated to a jailhouse lawyer for all of the women in prison with her, and that she'll never be an attorney with a prestigious firm, garnering $500/hour, will have to be good enough.
Notice that she wanted her JD on her education, not a bachelor's degree? She is so full of herself that she wanted her education amended, but no thoughts as to how she tortured a child.
Well now her JD means sh*t where she will be spending the rest of her life! No one cares about her education but they will know she is a child murderer.
I noticed and was appalled when she corrected her attorney and said, "8 books." So what. So what. We don't care about any part of your education. Our only wish was granted by the judge. Even at this time, you're only upset because you did not win. Thank God, Timothy won in the end.
I commented the same thing before seeing your comment. Her professional accomplishments are of utmost high importance to her, but her mothering (what *should be* part of a person's personal accomplishments if they so choose to have a child) is something she could care less about. For ALL of her children.
Yes, she needs the money to buy food from commissary because she doesn’t want to eat the prison issued food. How rich , starved her son but she needs to eat better food than what’s served at prison. She’s stone cold, a monster and evil !
I was abused by my family members, I carry the scars till this day , it doesn’t mean that I’m going to abuse my own children, I always said that when I grow up and have children of my own , I will protect them with my life , this has nothing to do with being abused, this is pure evil 👿 As a parent we are supposed to protect our children, not torture them 😢
Yep. Thank you on behalf of your future children for not falling into the cycle. Thank you for staying present. Our walk is way harder. I have raised and continue to raise three, incredibly amazing children in love, awareness, patience and understanding.
Tom you broke the cycle.🫶🏽🙏❤. I never forgot what I suffered and raised a house filled with children, love and understanding. It was my choice. We win. Rip Timothy and all the children that have passed at the hands of those who we’re supposed to love and protect them. For those remembering and still hurting you can be free. Get help, forgive yourself, and be honest with yourself. We are strong powerful and worthy❤
OMG...This judge had me in tears. He expressed everything i thought and he and the prosecutors spoke up for Timothy. Rest easy Timothy...you are no longer in pain. Justice has finally been served for Timothy.
I think the defense attorney did a great job considering her crimes. People forget that the defense is doing their duty by defending the indefensible, which is even harder than prosecuting obvious sadism
@@lizzeltired2155I agree with you 100%. I saw another clip of the defense attorney talking after sentencing and he said this was the worse case he’s ever seen. He’s got a huge heart just like the other attorneys and judge
Also her whispering to her attorney while the judge was speaking speaks volumes to her character. She really believes she doesn’t deserve that sentence.
@@Realauntmemehow so? If anything, I'd imagine it being way worse for women whom harm their children. I'd be shocked if she isn't walking around without looking over her shoulder.
@@jamie.777 They did not know what was happening I'm sure. Sounds like they had no contact with Shanda or Paul . I wish that Paul would have reached out to them but he was probably scared of her 😢
They should have checked in on him, they knew their mother was a nutcase. Not blaming them, but like I said before there were many adults that failed for Timothy.
this monster sits there as if she’s still at her law desk making corrections to frivolous typos. Wake up sis, your law career is over. she should absolutely be responsible for reimbursing any victims fund from HHS that went to her. She is not the victim. ⚖️
@@SirenASMR_I’m truly so sorry you had to go through that! No child should ever have to go through it! I hope you’ve found peace and happiness in your adult life.
It is such a blessing in our world's current state to see such a judge with a heart, empathy and just truly cares. His children and wife are blessed to have him in their lives. May God bless and protect him.
As a single mom of a 13 year old Autistic son (and 2 older children) this tragedy breaks my heart ! I say leave her to the inmate’s and hopefully they do to her worse than she did to this sweet angel! RIP Timothy🙏🏻💔😢🕊💐
Autism? Check out Dr. Christopher Exley. He has done extensive research on the effects of aluminum and has concluded that it ,ay cause autism, altzheimers and other diseases. He says to drink 1 liter of Figi water within 1 hour for 13 days. The Figi water is silica rich and detoxes aluminum and other heavy metals. I make my own "silica water" using the recipe created by Dr. Dennis Crouse. It's cheaper than Figi. God bless you and your family.
I love sentencing statements by Judges because it gives me an idea of all the thoughts the Judge had throughout the trial since they aren’t allowed to say much during. The Judge’s statement was great❤️
Millie and Nolan if you or someone close to you reads this: You are loved and cared about. We are sorry for your loss and the awful pain you have to deal with in top of what was already clearly a tumultuous upbringing. You can change this with your resilience and strength. Keep on fighting. There are thousands of us that have followed this case that are cheering and supporting you.
Don’t blame the defense Atty. He is a public defender and that’s his job, to defend. That doesn’t mean he believes in his client. It just means he earns his paycheck.
I just cannot understand her utter hatred for Timothy. On the stand she continously called him 'deceitful and sneaky', again and again. She cannot accept responsibility for her grotesque actions.
and the thing is... even if he WAS the most sneaky and deceitful person on the planet...that wouldn't even begin to excuse even one iota of what she did to that poor child. Rest well Timothy, you're safe now.
This judge and his allocation on behalf of Timothy and placing his beautiful picture was just the justice Timothy deserved. To quote the judge, "Timothy won."
Hot sauce and bread only, once a day, for the rest of her life. Ice baths daily, for an undisclosed length of time, at random times of the day so she is in constant fear of when the next bath will be. Total darkness. Handcuffs + leg irons. 1 minute max bathroom breaks or otherwise she gets no food. Nothing but a tarp. Cameras watching 24/7. Oh yeah, and wall sits and motion alarms. She will sadly live a cushy and comfortable life in prison compared to what Timothy was put through.
You’re so right. In prison her life will be a cake walk in comparison to Timothy’s life. The US justice system needs complete reform for how it handles child crimes. There should be federal mandatory sentences and what is seen as “cruel and unusual” punishment needs revision. The sentence never fits the crime. Im in complete agreement that every meal of hers for the rest of her life should be hot sauce soaked bread, daily ice baths etc.
I read an article online that the women inmates hate child murderers! I hope this monster is punished every day by the women who’s in prison with her!! 😡😡
@@notsorryyouretriggered So as a society, we’ve learned through reflection, debate, and good old trial and error, that when a government is barbaric and exceedingly cruel, then that government tends to fall. That’s why the 8th amendment was drafted. I understand you’re likely one of those who likes to pick and choose the constitution of the United States, and perhaps even portions of the Bible you so dearly cherish. Maybe try some critical thinking for once in your life.
As a mother of 3 grown, wonderful children, 2 sons & a daughter, I can't for the life of me ever fathom the level of sadistic, evil, horrific ANY mother could be to do to a child. It is just unimaginable & she should have been forced to be there to hear her verdict!! That was a cowardly copout!!
I cannot believe she’s gonna try to appeal. She grabbed that paper and started filling it out immediately. I couldn’t help but cry as the siblings were talking and she didn’t even shed a tear not even a fake one,disgusting
Oh, she'll appeal! She still thinks she did nothing wrong! Bish didn't even look at her kids or Timothy's photo! So glad the judge called her out AND said "Timothy WON because we ALL know what you are!"
She sat through the entire process as if she was at work , not the actual crimminal about to be sentenced to life in prison for heinous torture of an innocent child .
I don't like many defense attorneys but her lawyer seems like a great human. Even though he has to defend evil. It's his job. And he is considerate, all things considered
Did you see about 0:0:34 she asks him for a pen and he basically throws it at her. Even she made a face, like she was shocked at how he tossed it across the table. She looked confused at why he did it like that. Maybe bc instead of saying sorry to the court at sentencing, she just cared ONLY about fixing her educational backround. 😂 he's had it with her
I commend this judge. What incredible integrity and fairness. My prayers go out to these poor siblings. Lord help them to heal from the demonic force of a killer, who caused them all so much pain. 😢
Thank you Judge!! Thank you for punishing her appropriately. Going outside the guidelines because of the horrific things she did to this poor child. Rest in Peace little man.
This case has me completely broken, and I’m just a dumb internet stranger. God bless Timothy! His life mattered! His story matters. We live in a fallen world, and demons are walking among us. Rest in peace forever, Timothy.
This is one evil woman. The look in her eyes tells it all. I can’t even imagine a parent doing this to their angel. God be with all kids faced with this type of devil 👿
I didn't even know him, but I'm crying like a baby when his siblings read their letters. How sad, such a horrible woman put their family thru this. R.I.P. Timothy.
Personally I think she deserved a death sentence, what she did to that poor boy 😢 Rest In Peace Timothy no one can hurt you any longer . Prosecutor did a wonderful job , hope he doesn’t get ptsd or have nightmares after this .
Wow... the fact that she insists on the record reflecting she has a *juris doctorate* versus a bachelor's degree is all anyone needs to know about her ego of self-importance and why this "had" to go to trial vs just plead guilty. She's the type of person that'll have people refer to her a "doctor" out of a technicality, when she's not a doctor.
I’m very impressed with Timothy’s siblings. Great impact statements. Powerful words. For being so young, their way with words, their impact statements, are very respectful of Timothy’s memory. God bless this family.
She sits taking notes like she is just another attorney and not the defendant. I say this about few but I hope she rots in prison and there is a special place in hell for her.
Sitting there writing like she had something important to write….. that was a complete act of disassociation from the reality she was facing. My mind is blown by the complete act of evil in this case.

Wasn't that just an humble gesture to be so meticulous with her educational achievements. If that soulless witch had given that child a tad of that type of concern, he might still be here. I refuse to honor her with the title of Mom.
OMG I could not believe that they were correcting her educational accomplishments big effing deal !!
I too can't even consider her with the title of a mother!! Both of my adult children have passed away and I'll tell you I myself am dead so for her to sit there and jot down notes is the most disgusting vile thing I've ever seen in my life..
Those two other poor adult children that spoke on the behalf of their little brother Timmy tore me up completely !!
R.est
I.n
P.aradise Sweet boy 💔🙏😩
She also at the end was concerned about the 5K Restitution Fee cuz she wont be able to order stuff from the prison commissary, if she has to pay it. Can you believe her!!? That's all she was there for- to correct the record, as far as her education, and fight to not pay the restitution fee. That's for her own son's funeral btw. That's what she DOESNT WANT TO PAY.
Otherwise she wouldnt have shown up. Monster.
On one side of the window snow is falling and looks like a beautiful fairytale, on the other side of the window, ugliness. Light and Dark. Thank you Judge for being so eloquent. Justice has been served. RIP Timothy may you soar high with the stars.
I noticed that contrast as well❤
I thought of that too, the contrast! The snow falling symbolized Timothy’s pure innocent soul ❤
She won't be enjoying much of that anymore. Stuck inside the majority of her days
Beautiful that you captured the beauty of the snow While inside the depths of depravity 😢
I noticed that too. God is showing his presence. He has a message.
To everyone who worked this case, thank you! I appreciate you more than you will ever know. Because of all of you, little Timothy got justice. Please know that. I pray for your healing and the haunting memories of that little boy turn him into the most beautiful Angel in your dreams. That is what he would want. ❤

You can tell even her defence lawyer hates her. I like how he throws the pen on the table at the beginning. Her face is priceless.
He was interviewed and said he was happy justice was done. Plus he stated it was the worst case he had to handle.
I was looking for this comment
She didn`t cry for Timothy at all, but she cried for herself............... ! That says it all really!
She'll be boo-hooing a whole lot more in Hell.
She’s behaving as if she’s an attorney! Delusional
In fairness, she graduated from law school and passed the bar. She is a JD. This is the closest she will ever get to using that education.
@@Justso_Weather_Vainshe passed the bar exam on her first try and got a 180 which according to the prosecutor is a very high score.
She is an attorney. Not a licensed attorney anymore because she was convicted of crimes of moral turpitude, but she will always be an attorney. She went to college, went to law school, and passed the Bar Exam. That can't be stripped from her, unfortunately. She's obviously so enamored with her own intelligence that I wish there was a way she could be stripped of the education and accomplishments, but knowing that she'll forever be relegated to a jailhouse lawyer for all of the women in prison with her, and that she'll never be an attorney with a prestigious firm, garnering $500/hour, will have to be good enough.
Like my ex wife
@@mellvee If you are not a licensed attorney you are not an attorney.
Notice that she wanted her JD on her education, not a bachelor's degree?
She is so full of herself that she wanted her education amended, but no thoughts as to how she tortured a child.
Well now her JD means sh*t where she will be spending the rest of her life! No one cares about her education but they will know she is a child murderer.
I noticed that. She is a narcissist - very proud of herself.
I noticed and was appalled when she corrected her attorney and said, "8 books." So what. So what. We don't care about any part of your education. Our only wish was granted by the judge. Even at this time, you're only upset because you did not win. Thank God, Timothy won in the end.
I commented the same thing before seeing your comment. Her professional accomplishments are of utmost high importance to her, but her mothering (what *should be* part of a person's personal accomplishments if they so choose to have a child) is something she could care less about. For ALL of her children.
Exactly what I was thinking…….: narcissism
Shanda is pissed that she has to pay restitution for Timothy’s funeral and burial! She is truly evil!
Yes, she needs the money to buy food from commissary because she doesn’t want to eat the prison issued food. How rich , starved her son but she needs to eat better food than what’s served at prison. She’s stone cold, a monster and evil !
I Cried.. Judge: "Who is here for Timothy!?". Rest in peace Angel.. He did NOT deserve this!!
I was abused by my family members, I carry the scars till this day , it doesn’t mean that I’m going to abuse my own children, I always said that when I grow up and have children of my own , I will protect them with my life , this has nothing to do with being abused, this is pure evil 👿
As a parent we are supposed to protect our children, not torture them 😢
Yep. Thank you on behalf of your future children for not falling into the cycle. Thank you for staying present. Our walk is way harder. I have raised and continue to raise three, incredibly amazing children in love, awareness, patience and understanding.
♥
Tom you broke the cycle.🫶🏽🙏❤. I never forgot what I suffered and raised a house filled with children, love and understanding. It was my choice. We win. Rip Timothy and all the children that have passed at the hands of those who we’re supposed to love and protect them. For those remembering and still hurting you can be free. Get help, forgive yourself, and be honest with yourself. We are strong powerful and worthy❤
❤
Some survivors do not come out of their abuse, some go on to abuse. It’s not rocket science.
She has tears for herself as her attorney speaks about her, but no tears for her adult children as they speak. Classic narcissism.
I agree❤
They aren’t human. It’s bizarre
OMG...This judge had me in tears.
He expressed everything i thought and he and the prosecutors spoke up for Timothy. Rest easy Timothy...you are no longer in pain.
Justice has finally been served for Timothy.
Judge's speech was very touching. I couldn't agree more. May the inmates continue to serve justice.
And serve her hot sauce on bread
Why oh why does this court have a huge post right in front of the bench???? Unbelievable! I want to see this monsters face!
Applause for this judge!!! What he did and said to honor the boy...
Judge and prosecutor did a great job. They actually cared unlike Shanda
I think the defense attorney did a great job considering her crimes. People forget that the defense is doing their duty by defending the indefensible, which is even harder than prosecuting obvious sadism
@@lizzeltired2155 I totally agree. Imagine having to defend her. He did the best job possible. He's a good lawyer.
I agree, at least he knew she was terrible too- unfortunately he had to defend her ass
@@lizzeltired2155I agree with you 100%. I saw another clip of the defense attorney talking after sentencing and he said this was the worse case he’s ever seen. He’s got a huge heart just like the other attorneys and judge
WHO CARES about her GRADES!
Not me 😂
It demonstrates how controlling she is with her i dotting and t crossing!
This was mind boggling! And the correcting of words and pill spellings 🤯
He was her scapegoat, punching bag and outlet for all of the pain and pressure she had in her life. Disgusting.
Also her whispering to her attorney while the judge was speaking speaks volumes to her character. She really believes she doesn’t deserve that sentence.
May jailhouse justice be served cold and hard! RIP Timothy ❤
And served with lots of hot sauce (if they're allowed that).
And icy, cold, freezing showers.
I wish you were correct but unfortunately in female prisons its a lot different.
We can only hope!
@@Realauntmemehow so? If anything, I'd imagine it being way worse for women whom harm their children. I'd be shocked if she isn't walking around without looking over her shoulder.
Timothy WON!!! Thank you to This Judge for such incredible compassion for remembrance of this baby's life.
No one won anything. Timothy is dead
Love how her attorney threw the pen when she asked for one. Honestly I feel bad for him trying to defend the indefensible
He probably cannot stand her deep down
Me too
Was he assigned her case as a public defender??
Yes. He has clearly had it with this creature and can't wait until this day is finally over.
😂😂😂@@PricelessJesus
Snow falling like feathers of angel on such darkness. Powerful message.
That poor child!! She had him in a living hell, but now he's free and with Jesus ❤
So happy the siblings got to paint a loving light around Timothy. I feel so bad for them.
❤
And I believe that she abused Paul.
@@jamie.777
These are her adult children that did not live there.
@@jamie.777 They did not know what was happening I'm sure. Sounds like they had no contact with Shanda or Paul . I wish that Paul would have reached out to them but he was probably scared of her 😢
They should have checked in on him, they knew their mother was a nutcase. Not blaming them, but like I said before there were many adults that failed for Timothy.
this monster sits there as if she’s still at her law desk making corrections to frivolous typos. Wake up sis, your law career is over. she should absolutely be responsible for reimbursing any victims fund from HHS that went to her. She is not the victim. ⚖️
Did anyone pay attention at how beautiful and eloquently that SNOW WAS FALLING? I truly believe that was little Tim saying THANK YOU🙏🏾
🕊️👼👼😇😇🪽🪽🪽🪽
I noticed it . Very beautiful. I am an adult survivor of narcissistic parent abuse . That poor child lost his life due to this evil woman .
@@SirenASMR_I’m truly so sorry you had to go through that! No child should ever have to go through it! I hope you’ve found peace and happiness in your adult life.
❤🙏🏼🦋
Yes I noticed the snow , Timothy I'm so sorry that you had to go through such pain fly high and may the angles keep you forever in there loving arms
I still think his father should never have given her the option to look after .She wasn't supposed to care for him.He should also be held responsible.
It is such a blessing in our world's current state to see such a judge with a heart, empathy and just truly cares. His children and wife are blessed to have him in their lives. May God bless and protect him.
Does she think those corrections are going to make 1 flippin bit of difference in her sentence? Wth? Ridiculous!!!
Forever impressed by this prosecutor and judge.
@ashleypg1708
Yes, they were excellent.
'YOU DIDN'T WIN, SHANDA! TIMOTHY WINS!'
I love this judge!
As a single mom of a 13 year old Autistic son (and 2 older children) this tragedy breaks my heart ! I say leave her to the inmate’s and hopefully they do to her worse than she did to this sweet angel! RIP Timothy🙏🏻💔😢🕊💐
There's always karma so there's still hope.
I Totally agree, She's a Sick Evil Monster...RIP SWEET TIMOTHY 👼🙏🕊🥀
Autism? Check out Dr. Christopher Exley. He has done extensive research on the effects of aluminum and has concluded that it ,ay cause autism, altzheimers and other diseases. He says to drink 1 liter of Figi water within 1 hour for 13 days. The Figi water is silica rich and detoxes aluminum and other heavy metals. I make my own "silica water" using the recipe created by Dr. Dennis Crouse. It's cheaper than Figi. God bless you and your family.
She needs the Pearl Fernandez treatment in prison
Womens prisons are more civilized than mens. Shed def be in trouble if it was like a mens prison shed be going to.
I love sentencing statements by Judges because it gives me an idea of all the thoughts the Judge had throughout the trial since they aren’t allowed to say much during. The Judge’s statement was great❤️
Best summing up from a judge I've ever heard
Millie and Nolan if you or someone close to you reads this: You are loved and cared about. We are sorry for your loss and the awful pain you have to deal with in top of what was already clearly a tumultuous upbringing. You can change this with your resilience and strength. Keep on fighting. There are thousands of us that have followed this case that are cheering and supporting you.
The defense attorney is making me ill! How could anyone defend that monster?
Greed @@melanielapan93
Don’t blame the defense Atty. He is a public defender and that’s his job, to defend. That doesn’t mean he believes in his client. It just means he earns his paycheck.
I just cannot understand her utter hatred for Timothy. On the stand she continously called him 'deceitful and sneaky', again and again. She cannot accept responsibility for her grotesque actions.
He was the scapegoat for something
@@reeferseasaltexactly. For the family dysfunction.
Narcissists like to give pain to anyone they so called love 😢
and the thing is... even if he WAS the most sneaky and deceitful person on the planet...that wouldn't even begin to excuse even one iota of what she did to that poor child. Rest well Timothy, you're safe now.
Narcissists always have a scapegoat.
She also abused the 20 year old by teaching him abuse of Timothy is exceptable.
God bless that Judge. What a poetic and profound statement.
Thank you Judge for showing the world Timothy 🩵 and thank you to Millie and Nolan for being a voice for Timothy . 🙏🏼💫🕊️
I've been waiting for this all month.
Crying for Timothy in Australia.
I'm VERY disappointed those braids are still attached to her scull.
Very
Me too!! 🇦🇺
This judge and his allocation on behalf of Timothy and placing his beautiful picture was just the justice Timothy deserved. To quote the judge, "Timothy won."
Hot sauce and bread only, once a day, for the rest of her life. Ice baths daily, for an undisclosed length of time, at random times of the day so she is in constant fear of when the next bath will be. Total darkness. Handcuffs + leg irons. 1 minute max bathroom breaks or otherwise she gets no food. Nothing but a tarp. Cameras watching 24/7. Oh yeah, and wall sits and motion alarms.
She will sadly live a cushy and comfortable life in prison compared to what Timothy was put through.
You’re so right. In prison her life will be a cake walk in comparison to Timothy’s life. The US justice system needs complete reform for how it handles child crimes. There should be federal mandatory sentences and what is seen as “cruel and unusual” punishment needs revision. The sentence never fits the crime. Im in complete agreement that every meal of hers for the rest of her life should be hot sauce soaked bread, daily ice baths etc.
Most likely she will be kept in solitary confinement / protective custody for the duration of her life. That is torture in of itself
I read an article online that the women inmates hate child murderers! I hope this monster is punished every day by the women who’s in prison with her!! 😡😡
@@notsorryyouretriggered
So as a society, we’ve learned through reflection, debate, and good old trial and error, that when a government is barbaric and exceedingly cruel, then that government tends to fall. That’s why the 8th amendment was drafted. I understand you’re likely one of those who likes to pick and choose the constitution of the United States, and perhaps even portions of the Bible you so dearly cherish. Maybe try some critical thinking for once in your life.
@G274Me
With all due respect, cruel and unusual punishment is what the defendant meted out to her innocent son.
Now that's what I call a proper judge!
As a mother of 3 grown, wonderful children, 2 sons & a daughter, I can't for the life of me ever fathom the level of sadistic, evil, horrific ANY mother could be to do to a child. It is just unimaginable & she should have been forced to be there to hear her verdict!! That was a cowardly copout!!
Omg she's so weird filling out those papers like she just wasn't served a life sentence in a courtroom
She is 100% sure she will get out on appeal, that is why she is filling out those papers so fast.😂🤣😂🤣😭😂🤣😂🤣
It gives her something to do so she doesn't have to have eye contact with people, including her children
@@jillijane9793exactly this.
She is delusional thinking she is some great lawyer when she is just a murdering criminal behind bars.
Her not wanting to face the cameras
Victim statements got me in tears Lord. Heartfelt statements from his well-spoken siblings. Thank God for them ❤
I cannot believe she’s gonna try to appeal. She grabbed that paper and started filling it out immediately.
I couldn’t help but cry as the siblings were talking and she didn’t even shed a tear not even a fake one,disgusting
Oh, she'll appeal! She still thinks she did nothing wrong! Bish didn't even look at her kids or Timothy's photo! So glad the judge called her out AND said "Timothy WON because we ALL know what you are!"
The appeals court has to except it! They won't except it!
She did not have ineffective council, her rights have not been violated! She's done!
She'll never win.
Yet, look at her crying while her attorney throws the pity party for her.
She sat through the entire process as if she was at work , not the actual crimminal about to be sentenced to life in prison for heinous torture of an innocent child .
There is not a word bad enough to describe how I feel about Shanda and Paul😢
Jesus this was tough😥 Timothy you absolutely mattered. We, strangers, grieve for you and your siblings and all who loved you
I bawled like a baby listening to this while driving
@@amandachrist387 yes ma'am you and I both
Her lawyer is disgusted with this woman!!! Attorney is grasping at straws. I've been through everything she has I've never killed, or abused anyone!
It's his job. And it eliminates "inneffective counsel" as a grounds for appeal.
@@trailrunner925I can't disrespect the guy (this time)
I would have NEVER taken this case to defend the likes of that worm infested creature wearing a skin suit.
I don't like many defense attorneys but her lawyer seems like a great human. Even though he has to defend evil. It's his job. And he is considerate, all things considered
Did you see about 0:0:34 she asks him for a pen and he basically throws it at her. Even she made a face, like she was shocked at how he tossed it across the table. She looked confused at why he did it like that.
Maybe bc instead of saying sorry to the court at sentencing, she just cared ONLY about fixing her educational backround. 😂 he's had it with her
The judge was so eloquent in articulating what she did, and how Timothy suffered, all without crying or yelling at the defendant for her callousness.
I commend this judge. What incredible integrity and fairness. My prayers go out to these poor siblings. Lord help them to heal from the demonic force of a killer, who caused them all so much pain. 😢
Thank you Judge!! Thank you for punishing her appropriately. Going outside the guidelines because of the horrific things she did to this poor child. Rest in Peace little man.
This case has me completely broken, and I’m just a dumb internet stranger. God bless Timothy! His life mattered! His story matters. We live in a fallen world, and demons are walking among us. Rest in peace forever, Timothy.
I love the way the judge put Timothy's picture up during sentencing and said "Timothy did win." 🌟💫
Her appeal is on the way.
This is one evil woman. The look in her eyes tells it all. I can’t even imagine a parent doing this to their angel. God be with all kids faced with this type of devil 👿
46:42 WOW. This judge had more care and love for Timothy than she ever did.
I didn't even know him, but I'm crying like a baby when his siblings read their letters. How sad, such a horrible woman put their family thru this. R.I.P. Timothy.
Me too! 😢
She wanted the record to clearly state her highest education level. Thankfully, the judge gave her the highest sentence.
Personally I think she deserved a death sentence, what she did to that poor boy 😢 Rest In Peace Timothy no one can hurt you any longer . Prosecutor did a wonderful job , hope he doesn’t get ptsd or have nightmares after this .
Prison with inmates who have suffered abuse might be a worse hell for her.
I don't know, for the DS, but in this case, I think 50 years of hot sauce enemas in prison is a more fitting sentence.
@@flamingpitchfork9168I am willing to pay for a life time supply of the hottest sauce ever made.
Death row gets you a cell to yourself so no I prefer she goes in the gen population
Na death sentence is to easy. She should rot and be treated by the inmates
Wow... the fact that she insists on the record reflecting she has a *juris doctorate* versus a bachelor's degree is all anyone needs to know about her ego of self-importance and why this "had" to go to trial vs just plead guilty. She's the type of person that'll have people refer to her a "doctor" out of a technicality, when she's not a doctor.
She seems to think she is operating above the law.
A narcissist. They believe they are above the law. She honestly believes she did no wrong.
@@missysue2991 She is truly inconvenienced by all of those knuckleheads who think they can sentence her to anything.
Yes!! I agree!
Best speech from the judge I’ve ever heard.
Thank you to the prosecutor and judge.
Well said Your Honour on Calling Out this Evil, Despicable woman for who She truly is, &. for what She did to this poor Child.😓
Even with the best possible outcome (life sentence) she will still get 3 meals a day☹️
Rest in paradise Timothy❤
How are those leg shackles feeling on you MOMMY DEAREST MONSTER???
I didn't see any.
She has them. What's on her waist is attached to leg shackles
How telling that she only shows emotion for herself. I've never witnessed such coldness.
I’m very impressed with Timothy’s siblings. Great impact statements. Powerful words. For being so young, their way with words, their impact statements, are very respectful of Timothy’s memory. God bless this family.
If only she was as involved with feeding or caring for her child as she was with those papers in front of her 😡
She sits taking notes like she is just another attorney and not the defendant. I say this about few but I hope she rots in prison and there is a special place in hell for her.
She acts as though the trial has nothing to do with her. She is above it all. Already working on an appeal.
@@psalm2764 there is no way she'll get out. 😂 but she'll keep on trying
I heard the trial of this lady she is completely evil she's still gonna be treated better in prison than how she treated her own son...
Yes that’s true … that’s why I wish there was something called “Death Sentence by “STARVATION” !!!
That’s what bothers me , that she still gonna have a better life in prison than him
No she won't, they're filling bottles of hot sauce for her enemas...that will make her understand the evil that she did and is.
She’s no lady
I doubt that. I think she is going to be tortured in prison. Child killers get treated differently.
This judge articulates the horrors that this horrid woman perpetrated against a vulnerable child in an incredibly moving way.
The state needs to bring back capital punishment, especially for cases like this
Sitting there writing like she had something important to write….. that was a complete act of disassociation from the reality she was facing. My mind is blown by the complete act of evil in this case.
Where they said if she hadn't stepped up and taken him in.......I was screaming "He would still be alive"
Same
I can't stand seeing anyone in pain. Wow, a narscitic person feeds off of others pain. This is disgusting behavior.
What a great judge 🙌🏼
