  1. This grieving mother is right about our justice system. In a way, she reminds me of the late Doris Tate who’s 8 1/2 month pregnant daughter, Sharon Tate, was stabbed to death by the Manson Family back in August 1969. Horrible story and others were killed that night in a brutal way.

    1. enough about the Manson family and the Tate- Labianca murders already… he was an acid addled freak who played “the boss” to a buncha brainwashed hippies until tex took over and still avoided the spotlight because Manson looked more the part..

  2. Don’t let evil acts others commit to turn your own heart evil. Remember why you’re mad- because a human being took another human beings life. We do not want any humans deciding to take the life of another human. It’s wrong. Justice, not revenge. So no death penalty. Costs more to kill a convict than to house them for life (real statistic due to lawyers and court costs etc) and it’s wrong.

    Let’s hope the focus is rehabilitation vs revenge inside those bars because we are letting them out again.

    May the families of all victims of violence find peace and forgiveness, they often go hand in hand.
