        Melatonin isn’t arsenic. 21 years is ridiculous. Meantime, treason is merely winked at.

        Hate to say it, but Melatonin ain't dangerous. 21 Years, for Melatonin? Cm'on! She may have done a stupid thing, but I take the stuff and it seems OK to me.

        21 years for a sleep aid medication. US Justice system is such a joke. Put her on probation for 10 years or something but damn.

        Good. I would be livid if a daycare worker drugged my kid. Who gives a shit what kind of drug it is. 21yrs isn’t harsh it’s well deserved. Those screaming harsh either don’t have kids or are just as fucked up as she is.

        I agree this was despicable, but 21 years was over the top compared to the harm done. People get less for 1st degree murder. Her life is over because she did something irresponsible she didn't believe could be dangerous. She is dumb as he'll, but not deserving of a life sentence.

        God bless her boyfriend for doing the right thing we all have a duty to report child abuse and neglect whenever we see it. She was operating a business without a license just think what could have happened one of those kids could have gone into cardiac arrest while she was gone
