      Why was the stepfather who r***** Susan for years in middle school not put in jail? Susan reported the abuse, the stepfather admitted it, and South Carolina decided on family counseling - together. Susan had no opportunity to talk to a counselor alone, so the abuse continued. The stepfather did not do a day in jail.
      If not for what happened to Susan, the tragedy would not have happened.

      This! Exactly this. Susan Smith's molestation was horrible.
      But she murdered her toddlers because she wanted the son of a wealthy family in town.
      And was stupid and delusional enough to not realize his excuse of dumping her after a short fling, saying he never wanted to be a stepfather, was his way of not coming right out and saying he had just used her for sex, the novelty had worn off, and he'd never seen her as real relationship material.
      The idea Michael and Alex died for *that* is just as heartbreaking thirty years later.

      Yes, David should be so very proud of his Daughter. I can see that he has an issue with being too close because of the horrific loss of those boys. I wish he would have hugged his Daughter. I feel like she needs that from him. She is so impressive. You can tell she has been very well raised by her Dad and Mom. And that would be so hard to have lost your 2 Brothers, to such a absolutely terrible crime, before you were ever even born. And his Wife, I feel so bad for her. It would be very hard to handle that distance that is there between them. And I just know it is because he had this horrible trauma, and he cannot have that intimacy he would have had with probably anybody, because of what happened. Ppl who do these acts just don't get how far reaching their crimes effect ppl. A crime like this ripples out to everybody. I still remember where I was the day the chief of Police came out and announced that Susan Smith had been arrested for taking the lives of those 2 precious baby boys. And my heart stopped. I was just so shocked. This case effected ppl all over the world. And we were all just shocked and so heart broken. And then when they showed them pulling the car out of the water with those little boys in there, I was sobbing, as if they were my own babies. And to this day, 30 years later, that woman STILL does not grasp the ramifications of that. That she has not at any point felt the need to contact David, and pour out her soul to him of being sorry. She doesn't have it in her to do that, and that makes it hard to think she is sorry. But even if deep down she is sorry, what does that change? David is right. That's only 15 years prison per baby boy she has served in prison. That's not enough. It will never be enough. David will never be whole ever while he is still on Earth, and his Sons are in heaven. Only God can carry him through his life on the daily. She has forever changed the entire course of his life and his entire family's lives. And her own family. The entire world watched on live tv as the Police Chief announced she had been arrested. And we all watched as the car carrying those precious boys to their deaths was pulled from the water. That put a mark on everybody's heart and soul who watched that. And ppl believed her! She had so many ppl believing she was the victim of a car jacking! She hurt racial relations in that Town and State by trying to pin what she had done on a Black man! And she sits there thinking she deserves a 2nd chance at freedom? Absolutely not! That bell can never be unrung! Not ever! Instead of Susan Smith sitting there pining away, scheming, what she's going to do when she gets out. She needs to be really getting right with God. If she is not sorry, God knows. She can't fool God. There are some lines as a human where there can never be reconciliation. This is definitely 1 of them. She should not even want parole! She should tell them she never deserves freedom because of what she did. I don't believe she can change. She is just manipulative and conniving. It's who she is in her soul. Only God can sort that out. But I don't really think that can be sorted out here.They made the right call. And I hope ppl continue to pray for David. He needs prayer and he needs support. He will have to do this every 2 years from now on. He never deserved this from her. He is a very strong man to have endured this, and gotten remarried and had a Daughter. But make no mistake, he will never be ok. That's what is so heart breaking. She destroyed so many ppl's lives. And she just acts like she has no awareness at all of the gravity of what she did. Like she lives in a cloud, and it can't effect her, the immense deep to the soul, pain she has caused. I will pray for the Lord to continue to carry David through life, and his family. My heart is just so heavy still to this day, over this horrific crime. Those baby boys would be grown men with their own families today. They deserved their lives to play out. God Bless David's Daughter. She is such a beautiful, caring young lady. Very intelligent, and well spoken. If David see's my comment, David hug your Daughter. Put your focus on her, cherish her. She loves you! And your Wife. You are very lucky to have them. God gave you them, to help you through your pain.

    for the people too young to know what is going on, this vile woman strapped her kids in their car seats and drove them into the river and watched them drown while crying for their mama to save them. She then blamed it on a black guy , went on tv crying for the "safe return" of her children and the poor husband stood beside her in obvious pain, not knowing she murdered his children. And she did all of this because she had an affair with another man that wouldn't leave his wife for her and she thought it was because she had children.
    Susan smith is a monster and should never see the light of day.
    btw; I'm a little biased because i grew up not far from where this happened, and my last name is also smith. so I've been asked a billion times if I'm related... like they aren't a million smith families.

      OK YES THAT IS ALL TRUE BUT LETS NOT LEAVE THE ADULTERER OFF THE HOOK THE wealthy married guy Knew very well he took vows with his wife but Susan was young and attractive and he wanted sex with her. He told her din't want the kids, Susan was craving love, while in middle school she was repeatedly raped by her step father as a child and nobody did anything about it, not even the authorities, she was a broken young woman. OF COURSE there is no reason to murder the boys, I am saying her mental health should have been addressed.

      Because Susan Smith thought that that would make her look like a bad mother in the eyes of her peers.
      She cared more about that than her boys.
      I think she wanted to cut all ties to David and her entire life with him up until then.
      I think that’s why she put Tom Finley’s letter, her wedding dress, and the photo album of her wedding pictures in the car with the boys before she rolled it down the boat ramp.
      As she watched that car sink… And we know she watched it because she was the one who had to tell the divers what part of the lake to search in order to find the car… She thought that she was finally free.
      I’m just guessing, but…

I'm sure that as much as her father loves her, there is a part of him that is vacant to her. People never consider the decades of consequences that their behavior leaves behind. I sure that people never let the innocents forget that they remember this event. I felt her pain.
