  1. So not only could her biological parents not take care of her (or want to), but the family that adopted her did this to her?? Her short life was such a sad one. How could any adult harm a child like that? The amount of h8tred that would have to be harboring inside that soul…

  2. She didn't torture and kill her own biological sons, but she couldn't stop herself from killing this little 3 year old foster child who was unrelated to her.
    This mom seemed to only have the ability to care for her own children and should never have been a foster parent.
    Not a good person.

  3. Foster homes take in these kids for the wrong reasons and are not mentally/ emotionally qualified to care for these kids. There has to be better ways to ensure the safety of the kids.

  4. It's just goes to show that doing a background check, some classes, and a house check. Doesn't mean the kids are being put into a safer environment. Some of these "foster parents" don't do it for the safety of these kids. They do it for the money the government gives them. It's absolutely disgusting that a human being and an adult one at that. Can do such horrible, horrible things to a child! It's sick and wrong, and not everyone deserves to be a parent or even have custody of someone else's child/children!
    DO BETTER PEOPLE DO BETTER!!

  5. Victoria was so innocent and it breaks my heart just to think of what could have been going on in her thoughts of why she was being beaten. I have a toddler and I cry when he gets his shots! I just can’t imagine! 😢😢😢

  6. Some people should never be allowed to be in the.Foster Care Program; there should be restrictions in place that would prohibit these monsters from ever being allowed to be around children. This baby never stood a chance to survive in this environment; I hope this sick and twisted poor excuse for a human being who was incapable of showing remorse for what she did to this precious child even at her own trial gets every inch of the abuse she inflicted on these children while she is serving her life sentence in prison and I pray that she never again sees the light of day. As for her husband, the Coward who obviously didn't wear the pants in this family, in my opinion, he was complicit in the death of the child because he did nothing to protect her or prevent the repeated abuse and should serve the same amount of time!!!

  7. This is awful!!! Was this couple even investigated before this precious child was put in the house of horror. This is disgusting. Innocent children deserve better than this. A lot of people need to be fired behind this!!!
