@MattHelmSA well thank you captain obvious. Let's now here's something obvious for you just because that's a system we have and it is the greatest system in the world doesn't mean it always makes the right choice or decision
She was actually NOT sentenced to life in prison, she was sentenced to 30 years to life meaning she can get out after 30 years which is now and that is totally outrageous. To even consider parole for her is a miscarriage of justice but that is what she was sentenced to and no way to change that now. All we can hope is that they deny her parole.
You are right, but in her (psychopathic) mind, in order to secure the object of her desire, she had to cease to be a mother. A woman with children who live with their Dad is still a mother, and might well have to pay child support. She could deny the kids existed to her lover, but she might be found out, especially as the kids got older. The entirely logical solution then, is to dispose of them permanently. The extreme lack of empathy that is a major part of psychopathy, such that a human being has no more significance than a hamburger wrapper, enabled her to turn this plan into reality. The children no longer served her purposes, and thus were discarded.
She should have been sentenced consecutively for life without parole. She got off easy. She should never be allowed out of prison. She murdered her own children!! For a man!
She could’ve just signed her kids over to their father. She could’ve just left the relationship and the kids that way. They had a father that loved them very much. She was out to hurt him too. It’s unfathomable what she did. I can’t even imagine doing that to my children, not in 1 million years.
AMEN AMEN AND HER OWN FATHER SAID HE WISHES SHE FEELS EVERY AGONIZING PAINS OF THE ELECTRIC CHAIR LIKE HIS GRANDSON'S FELT TRAPPED IN THEIR STRAPPED DOWN CAR SEATS !!!!!!!!!!! SHE WANTS TO MAKE MONEY 💰 OFF OF HER BOY'S UNTHINKABLE DEATHS SHE IS FULLY RESPONSIBLE FOR!!!!!! UNBELIEVABLE UNBELIEVABLE UNBELIEVABLE!!!!!!
Putting a relationship with a man over your poor, innocent children and failing to protect them. In fact, going the extra mile to exterminate them. She is an empty vessel. Anyone with a soul would not be able to live with themselves. Sick.
I vividly remember this heartbreaking 💔 event as if it were yesterday...2 beautiful little boys. 😢 And she lied on black men. She should stay where she is.
She has no remorse and she is still breaking laws. Her kids never stood a chance with a mother like her. How deranged does a person have to be to drown two innocent children for sex? Leave her in prison.
There used to be laws that prevented it, but they have largely been stuck down over free speech concerns. What happens now is any money they are paid for their stories gets contested in court by the crime victims.

Thirty years in prison IS a life sentence because the law hasn’t changed since that was the life span. Want it changed? Complain to everyone who matters
30 to life because of mitigating factors in which her stepfather was molesting her, that doesn’t mean she’ll get out since she’s a killer and has continued to be this habitual offender in prison, it does not look good for her.

I was one of the people closely following the story in 1994, crying in front of my TV over those little boys. My sister and I sent flowers to the memorial. That story made national news. Kathie Lee Gifford walked off the set of Regis and Kathy Lee when a police officer they were talking to described pulling the car out of the lake. I was an 18 year old just out of high school. I'll never forget it. My two nephews were the exact same age. One of them is now a married father of three. Both have good careers. Michael and Alex didn't even get to go to school. If they let that monster out on parole the justice system in this country will be officially proven to be completely broken. She doesn't deserve to ever be released. Horrible, evil woman.
@barbrajones349 I'll never be able to get out of my head what they said when the car was pulled out of the lake. Alex & Michael were each in their car seats.....& were found *holding hands.* 😭💔 (It was the interview on Oprah. I was 24.)
No parole!! Also, blaming a “black” fictitious man!! This woman is evil!! Those little boys have been angels in heaven with Jesus a long time!! Their poor daddy!
I remember watching her in front of the cameras talking about her babies and that their "mama loves them so much." She stood next to the father of 3 yr old Michael and Alex 14 months, her eyes closed not looking at anyone and no tears. I KNEW, right then and there, it was her. She did something to those 2 precious boys. I was a mother of a 4 yr old little boy at that time. There's no way I could've stood in front of cameras if someone had taken my son. I would've been beyond hysterical and would've had to have been sedated. Yet, Susan stood there with no trace of any tears, from before or during her performance. Now that's cold. Mrs. B

This story was like the headline for months back then. One of the biggest stories of the year. If it happened today, it would be news for a day or two, but within a few days, there’d be another one. I remember in the 90’s, a father left his daughter in the car when he forgot she was in the backseat. Northern Virginia, I believe. That was also a huge story for weeks. Now it would barely be on the news, as it happens so frequently.
I was 8 when this happened, but this was one of the first major news stories I remember. I remember how disgusted my parents and aunt were when she tried to say it was a black man that killed her sons. I remember my aunt saying “Where are the tears?” as she was pretending to cry. I felt so bad for the father, him losing both children, but I saw a documentary about Susan Smith a few years ago and it showed her husband remarried with children and shows him taking his children to see both their brother’s graves 😢.
South Carolina has no such a sentence of "life without parole" for 1st degree murder its either life with the possibility of parole after 30 years or death. This woman is only eligible for parole, there is no realistic chance parole will be granted.
She is NOTin jail, and was never sentenced to jail. There is no such thing as being sentenced to jail for years or murder, and NO such thing as parole from jail.
I cannot believe the option of parole is even on the table for this woman. In the interviews I’ve ever seen with her, she has never once express sincere remorse for killing her boys. She needs to stay behind bars.
This woman still shows no remorse over her action and is trying to profit from killing her children which is illegal. The film maker should be arrested and prosecuted as well.
So she was basically selling her story and once again disrespecting her own children . Something's never change do they Susan, you haven't learned anything in those 30 years, you definitely haven't learned remorse or any kind of empathy have you ⁉️⁉️⁉️ if we could vote for you to stay in prison or let you out, I'd vote to keep you in there for the rest of your life.
I have to say it is crazy to me that there are people in this comment section that actually have a problem with people who think this woman should be kept behind bars for two crimes, murder and attempted murder. If the police would have believed her and found an innocent black man to take the fall, he would have gotten the death penalty for sure and she definitely knew that. Obviously the children are the worst part of this story, but it's ok to mention her other crimes.
The fact that she's even eligible for parole should be a crime
Woman's privilege.

No parole. Her kids suffered and died because of her, so she should rot in prison for the rest of her life.
I think it will make a difference. She's not suitable for parole even after all this time. I don't think she will ever be suitable.
She hasn’t learned anything yet.
Can you imagine how her children felt as the water swirled around them and mommy left the car as you know they screamed for her.
POS should NOT even be considered
We need to know who that filmmaker is.
Absolutely…and boycott their work…
Wow 🤦🏻♀️ she killed her boys wtf is wrong with the system 🤬🤬🤬
This story was like the headline for months back then. One of the biggest stories of the year. If it happened today, it would be news for a day or two, but within a few days, there’d be another one.
I remember in the 90’s, a father left his daughter in the car when he forgot she was in the backseat. Northern Virginia, I believe. That was also a huge story for weeks. Now it would barely be on the news, as it happens so frequently.
NO parole!!!!
I was 8 when this happened, but this was one of the first major news stories I remember. I remember how disgusted my parents and aunt were when she tried to say it was a black man that killed her sons. I remember my aunt saying “Where are the tears?” as she was pretending to cry. I felt so bad for the father, him losing both children, but I saw a documentary about Susan Smith a few years ago and it showed her husband remarried with children and shows him taking his children to see both their brother’s graves 😢.
How and why are inmates allowed to have a cellphone?
They aren't. At least not at Leath (where she is) or any other SC state prison.
A life sentence is only 30 years in SC?
South Carolina has no such a sentence of "life without parole" for 1st degree murder its either life with the possibility of parole after 30 years or death. This woman is only eligible for parole, there is no realistic chance parole will be granted.
It's less than 20 in some places.
Age of the defendant at time of sentencing = life sentence
That is one of many reasons our country is on this present state !!!!!😢😢😢
Should not even be a question, she should never get out..
This woman should never be out of jail. It’s a shame that she’s even coming up for parole…
She is NOTin jail, and was never sentenced to jail. There is no such thing as being sentenced to jail for years or murder, and NO such thing as parole from jail.
She should never be released, what she did was pure evil.
Charge the filmmakers too for it
She should never get out of jail.
I cannot believe the option of parole is even on the table for this woman. In the interviews I’ve ever seen with her, she has never once express sincere remorse for killing her boys. She needs to stay behind bars.
I've never heard her say she was sorry or admit to a terrible crime, until she does, she hasn't begun to change.
Keep this thing in prison
Tablet privileges? There are school children who do not have that.
Diane Downs is still in prison for what she pulled. Susan Smith does not deserve to leave prison.
"Oh yeah, those two guys!"
🤦♂
she needs to stay locked up.
This woman still shows no remorse over her action and is trying to profit from killing her children which is illegal. The film maker should be arrested and prosecuted as well.
It is rarely enforced that they can not profit from their crimes
If she was insane at the time of the crime, why did she continue to lie for 9 days?? Was she out of her mind for those days too.
No she doesn’t deserve to get out of prison
When Law Enforcement found her 2 dead sons she drowned in her car at the bottom of the lake she drove them into, they were in each others arms.
Stop lying. They were strapped in their car seats.
@@vincentanoethey were holding hands
@@heathertapper-gq6pk Not true.
Not a cording to the officers that found them. She killed killed the hell out of her own kids. What kind of twisted democrat does that.
She's pure evil....should never be released!!!!!
So she was basically selling her story and once again disrespecting her own children . Something's never change do they Susan, you haven't learned anything in those 30 years, you definitely haven't learned remorse or any kind of empathy have you ⁉️⁉️⁉️ if we could vote for you to stay in prison or let you out, I'd vote to keep you in there for the rest of your life.
I remember this case and she should never get out of prison.
I have to say it is crazy to me that there are people in this comment section that actually have a problem with people who think this woman should be kept behind bars for two crimes, murder and attempted murder. If the police would have believed her and found an innocent black man to take the fall, he would have gotten the death penalty for sure and she definitely knew that. Obviously the children are the worst part of this story, but it's ok to mention her other crimes.
facts
Racism and hate should not be tolerated; there are no second chances for people like this
She shows no conscience & no feelings.
How is it possible she didn’t get the death penalty or at least life without the possibility of parole?
She should not be paroled she committed the most horrible crime of killing her own 2 children. She obviously has no soul or conscience.
Because of the Son of Sam laws, she should not be receiving money from a filmmaker
keep her in prison. throw away the key
Jonathan..your suit is too small
