Hi Bill:
Thanks. CBS had an interview with her last night, and the whole thing
is suppose to be on Eye to Eye with Bryant Gumble. The little snip of
it that they showed gave me the impression that she isn't too sure that
she won't end up back in jail. She said that the best thing that can
happen is that they leave it as it is and let her go home.
I really feel for the parents if they have to exhume the baby and go
through all of this again. But if justice is served I guess that they
will be more than willing to do it. But it still has to be hell. I
know it would be for me.
