        Did YOU read the article? She is 20 and she didn't know the area! Who hasn't made a dumb choice while being 20? If she were white she probably wouldn't have been charged!

        I wonder if these charges apply if she was a white, wealthy woman. Probably not. The state would compensate her. America consistently fails.

        The authorities decide to add to the young mothers grief, and charge her with her baby death. This wrong, on so many levels.

        Did the mother lose her grip on the boy or did she let him go? Was there even a witness either way? If not, how could the police charge her?

        People don't seem to remember that this woman let go of the child into the water when the rescue teams came to help them and they wanted to grab the kid first

        Did you catch the part where she drove on a CLOSED road? Usually that means the road has been barricaded. Meaning she had to have gone around them. It’s sad. It’s tragic. But she made a truly poor choice.

        Yes Lori, we all saw that. Maybe she didn't know or maybe she was trying to get somewhere that was on the closed road. There are moms killing their children or neglecting them and they get off, but no...she tried to save her child and she gets charged with manslaughter

        If she had a posh-sounding name and graduate degree, this wouldn't be happening to her.
