      I'm no psychic, but I would bet money that she will have lifelong run-ins with the law.
      This whole family unit sounds messed up to say the least.
      Mom needs a jailbird and brings them home. Yikes.
      Living in filth is one thing, but feces. What in the world!
      For a mother and father to live like this and have their children live like this, I can't even wrap my brain around it.
      She got off far too easy but going in front of a jury, jurors would probably feel she was a victim instead of a perpetrator.

    It's weird how some people think a minor can't manipulate an adult, especially when both are young and immature. Now that doesn't excuse any actions of the adult, but people act like it's impossible or doesn't exist. There have been a number of cases of teens manipulating a partner into wiping out their family for them. Again it isn't in anyway an excuse for the adult, but it is a real thing that happens.

      @nanettevantriesteharder2469 10 місяців тому

      @avis8943 It is just speculation on my part, but it could be that Jenna Oakley was never told, "No!" by her biological parents, until her father married her stepmother, the focus of much of her hostility and murderous ideation. All children need boundaries to make them feel loved and secure. When parents abdicate their responsibility to supervise, guide, and protect their children from themselves and others, things go downhill fast. When there is a total lack of leadership within a unified or a broken family, there will be a reversal of roles in the child-parent relationship. In trying to be a friend and peer on par with their offspring, not respected authoritative heads of households, permissive parents ply the process of effective communications, cooperation, collaboration, coordination, correction, commitment, and compromise with anarchy. A team of spooked horses with the bit in their mouths pulling a stagecoach of frightened and screaming passengers over a cliff by not heeding the stagecoach driver's desperate attempts to pull up the reigns and stop them or to force them to stay on the road to safety is the best analogy I have of the stages of neural development (i.e., neurogenesis, migration, differentiation and myelination, synaptogenesis, and pruning) of children going into and through puberty. Without proper leadership during this crazy-making time, people's brains stay in a state of immature arrested development, while their bodies superficially appear more mature as they go through transformation into secondary sex characteristics. That is why there are mandatory reporting laws for such things as statutory rape, etc.

      sentences are not a direct relationship to severity. A crime that gives you 10 is not twice as bad as one that gives you 10. There is a point of diminishing returns, if someone is not safe for society after 5 years in jail will a few more matter? Is it worth housing them at the state's expense?

    • @shez5964

      Going by Tylar Witt, Gypsy Rose Blanchard and now this Jenna the message is probably getting around that if you're a teenage girl who wants to eliminate your mother then just find some gullible naive young man who will be present when the deed is done, not necessarily the actual perpetrator but he will be the one taking the larger part of the sentence meanwhile the teenage girl serves a much shorter punishment gets out and lives a free life.

    There is a reflex sometimes to treat children purely as results of parenting and home life, especially among those who dont have the experience of raising children. But the fact is, they are little people of their own and particularly as they approach adulthood, they can make some very bad choices and embrace awful beliefs on their own. Not saying her home life was good here, but she did have agency. If the young man had not been secreted in there, and she had gone to school, this would not have happened in the way it did.

      Depending on the state, the fathers sometimes cannot do much if the mother has custody and can show "good enough" of an environment when she is visited. In CA, the child can live on the street. If the mom has a room simply available, the dad still cannot get custody or help the child. So freaking messed up.
