@@wendyzj2705it was! I went through it and my doctors were completely ignorant. To prove the point, my obgyn called me two years later and said, “I’ve got another gal with depression. How did you deal with it?”. Wtf?
He looks so broken in his eyes even though he moved on and has more kids with Ana amazing wife it haunts him. You can tell. He looks like he hasn’t slept like since they died…..
@@krissy0628He probably hasn’t. This Thanksgiving when you and I are sitting down to a family turkey dinner… there are 2 empty plates where there would be 2 - 30 plus year old men and their wives. Why did they schedule this before the holidays. Why not in the summer … when his family can go out to garden afterwards, and have a better experience. This is very badly conceived by the justice department. I wish Trey Goudy was still the Senator, as I would ask why.
David turned a blind eye to her expressing she wanted to hurt these kids and didn’t do anything to be proactive, so the least he can do now is help keep this woman in prison.
@@MaeMae-shagrin he did no such thing don't you dare blame him! A mental woman does not lie for 9 days she concocted a story about a black man stealing her car with her kids in it! Then when she was caught she tried to blame sexual abuse from her stepdad whom she was still screwing as an adult! Look At The Pleas for her kids safe return she was cold and calculated!
I can still remember when David got the news that she had confessed he ran out of his parents screen door got maybe a little to the grass and collapsed facedown and he had to be physically lifted up by 2 family members or whoever! That image sticks in my mind!
I believe that she did say their names in the beginning and said that she loves them very much. At least that’s what I think I heard. Please someone correct me if I am wrong 😅
She did mention both of them before the alcohol question. I think back then she was immature & chronically depressed. Today, she still has a childish mind and I doubt her maternal instinct. How can you raise children when you are a child yourself ? By her own account: " I grew up". Doubtful..... However, her two little boys will never get a second chance. 😢 💔🙏 Children may be at a greater risk with depressed parents.
@mitsverdi5832 After all this time, if she grew emotionally at all, she should be all about the beautiful children whose lives she took unnecessarily. Her heartbreak would be visible.
If she truly felt the pain she caused, if she was truly remorseful for murdering her children, she would never want to get out of prison. She'd want to stay there because she'd know that's what she deserves. I was a young mother with a son the same age as one of Susan's sons. I don't know how to articulate it but this crime captured the nation and it was heartbreaking. We all felt it. I'm getting choked up now just thinking about it all these years later. No parole should ever be granted this woman.
I don't know about this case or how old her children but is there any chance she could have post natal depression?? As I said I know nothing about this case but post natal depression does cause.women to do horrendous things thst they wouldn't ordinary do.
@sarahmurphy-nf4yl Her sons were three and one so technically yes. However the 'motivation' for killing her children was a rich man she had an affair with who didn't want children and he was ending the affair because of that shortly before the murders. Personally I do think there are women murdering their children in a state of pschosis because of post partum depression however I don't know of a case where the woman immidiatley afterwards tries to cover her crime by lying, inventing a fictional suspect and stand in front of a bunch of cameras and speak to the nation begging to find her children.
More crocodile tears; I don't belive her any more than I did when she was begging for the return of her sons, I thought her guilty then, didn't believe her lies and accusations then and don't believe her self serving statements now. So glad her parole was denied. 30 years ago it was a LIFE SENTENCE, then the Courts or whatever changed the rules/intention. Those on that jury must feel betrayed, in that their intention when they declared her guilty was that it would be for her entire life. 😢😢😢
Agreed Judy. I’m 55, I’m a native Oregonian…. The Diane Downs case was HUGE when I was a kid. HUGE….so I’ve followed it very closely through out the years. Diane Downs has been officially diagnosed with with narcissistic, histrionic, and antisocial personality disorders, and one Dr also formally labelling her as a "deviant sociopath” … that and with her escape attempt in 1987 also, mixed with her very serious mental issues… I doubt she will ever see the light of day behind bars. Thank God! Diane has zero respect for human life and zero respect for normal laws that we all must abide by. At least she can no longer have more children. That ship sailed many years ago, thank heavens! There is a really good documentary about her youngest daughter, whom was adopted out. It’s so good! Check it out if you’re interested in her case ❤️💕🙏🏼
After listening to all of this, thank goodness she did not get parole. They should not keep the victims through continued suffering and make the next parole hearing in 10 years. Perhaps by then she will stop playing up in prison and actually show some real empathy.
Fake crying again just like when the boys were missing. Means nothing. It’s just to gain sympathy. She should never be free. She can’t obey rules inside prison or out of it.
My daughter was murdered at 25 in 2017. He gets out in 2033. I don't even understand how these people even get a 2nd chance. I'm so happy she wasn't released! Unless you have lost a child no matter the age. Time doesn't heal. Prayers to the family. I'm glad justice is still serving those 2 helpless little boys.
In one breath says she is sorry and the next says she is not guilty of what she was charged with. This is not remorse. She won’t even accept what she has done. Dangerous woman and should be kept locked up. Life should mean life for an adult knowingly and with planning beforehand commiting murder.
TO ADD... If a black man was arrested, and she confirmed his identity, WE ALL KNOW he most likely would still be rotting in a SOUTH Carolina prison, or would've been executed by now.
That wouldn’t have happened so please stop fantasying about having another victim to add to your resentment list. The possibility of that happening was close to zero. The detectives never believed her story. Things are bad enough without people making up nasty scenarios based on a stupid story about non-existent people.
@@barbaramay1866 then why did she confess why did no person not se she had no all the sign like how can a black man just come and take you kids . Like how can you could just get out the car when you kids are ind with the strenger like how kome when you get out you where not in fear and shaking and traumatised . Still people and police blived her
It happens all the time look up how many black men have been released after a white woman either confessed to lying or the case was reopened sooo yes ma’am it happens
#1: She's served a 30yr sentence and decided to "grow up" the last 10yrs of sentencing. #2: She wants the mercy of the parole board but didn't show her own children the same. SMH
Our hearts broke with Davids that horrific day, and I believe when he says " Susan only thinks of Susan". So glad she was denied parole and hopefully she will always be denied. Justice for Alex and Michael Smith 💔❤️💔
She sounds exactly the same as she did back in 1994 still a narcissist and she knew exactly what she was doing but she wanted that wealthy lifestyle more than she loved her own children imagine how evil that is to stand there and watch while those two babies were scared and crying for their momma to help them and did nothing in fact they were found hours later holding hands in death to try and comfort each other she should be under the prison and has not learned one thing over the last 30 years that poor man is still traumatized by her evil behavior.
I go by what others have said. "she made a choice that day to drown her kids in the lake" She planned it and exectuted it and then lied about it. She should die in prision. What bothers me is that the sentance was so light. 30 years to life? As her ex husband said "that is only 15 years per child she killed". Now the family has to go through this every two years? Thats not right. If they even have a parole hearing it should be evey 10 years or at a minimum 5 years between them. Make the parole hearing mean something.
Every two years is ridiculous. She won’t learn anything in two years if that’s what they want. Just hurting the family over and over again. She wasn’t a juvenile when she did the deed. Her brain was fully developed. She knew exactly what she was doing and planned it. Someone else would have loved those little ones. I can’t even comprehend drowning babies. They aren’t kittens. Life should be life period.
These parole hearings are just a joke ,such a waste of the taxpayers money and a horrible reminder to her living victims. This women will never be sorry or fit for parole . So terrible that our criminal system allows for the family to relive all this trauma every 2 years .I truly wonder who makes these rules .😮
David Smith is the shell of a man he once was. We all remember when SS lied on the news followed by David’s devastation at the funeral. I saw his strength as he went to court. It looked like he might survive this horrific tragedy. Now 30 yrs on, he’s the picture of what grief does to a person, mind body & soul. I’m so sorry for your loss sir💔
When I was little this case was actually quite massive. I remember it had a huge impact on my mom, and how many women suffer from something called post partum depression, and can be severe. She was interested in psychology at the time. I will never forget the image in my head of 2 children being tied into the car and the person they rely on for everything, warmth, food, love, the person they most trust, Mom, leaving the car to roll into the water. It was the first time I considered my own death, and crying to my mom realizing as a 5 year old that someday I am going to die. I am sorry folks, this was such a poignant time in my life, and thinking about it now for the first time in 30 years is giving me the feels.
This wasn’t her case though! She wanted to impress her new rich boyfriend who said he couldn’t be with her because she had two children and he didn’t want children! You obviously haven’t done your research on this story
Same I remember so much of this case as it was just recently. I was a very young kid. I don’t remember any of most of your details but I remember her all over the news and how she blamed a black man. Ugh she’s sick.
Good! She should never get out. She killed them and tried to blame some black men. Better off with Jesus? Can you image drowning and not being able to get out? In your last seconds, you know the person who was suppose to take care of you isn’t helping you.
What part of parole she doesn't get ?? You murdered 2 babies, Not one but two innocent lives !! all for another man (from an affair ).After all these years She still delusional thinking she stood a chance to be free, Let her Rott in prison.
I cried listening to David and his family speaking about Michael and Alex and I was so relieved when they denied her parole. I lost my 22 year old son in 2016 and I can agree with David that time will never heal the wounds from the loss of a child, when he said it could be any date or year that can be harder than others I could relate to that so much. I will be doing okay one day and the next the pain just hits all over again and I think to myself that I will never see my son again I’ll never get to hug him or talk to him that he’s gone forever and that pain hits hard. David didn’t lose just one child he lost both of his children and the grief he’s feeling is unimaginable, the loss of my son destroyed me I couldn’t imagine losing my daughter too. My heart breaks for him and I hope Susan never gets released, she should spend the rest of her life in prison.
Parole Hearings seem like the victims have to relive the horror of the time they lost someone so precious to them.. My heart goes out to David cause i'm sure there's not one minute he doesn't think about his babies.
She needs to stay in prison for the rest of her life what she did to her little boys I don’t feel one bit sorry for her from Donna in Sydney Australia 🇦🇺
what an ignorant woman susan smith is. she's had 30 yrs to develop herself and what came out of her mouth showed she has not a clue about anyone or anything around her. The father of Michael and Alex, on the other hand, spoke with an immense amount of emotion that showed a huge amount of emotional intelligence - never have I heard such a truthful and heartful experience from a father who has had to live the past 30 years with the loss of his boys. I pray for this father and his family.
@cathysnedegar6711 Absolutly heartbreaking. I hope she never sees the light of day again but even thinking of the poor father. Who has now to face the biggest loss and trauma of his life on the regular in front of the world to keep this woman behind bars.
She should NEVER be released. I remember this case, and it was horrific. She killed those boys so she could be with her lover, a man who didn't want kids in his life. SUCH A LIAR!
God bless David, the father. My heart broke for him the day I first saw him begging to get his children back, and it broke for him 30 years later at Susan’s parole hearing. I pray God comforts him, and takes away his pain🙏
What Smith did is unimaginable, it's downright evil, to watch her children scream out for her and just stand by and watch them drown, she needs to stay in there forever.
I didn’t feel anything when she gave her impact statement. It reminded me when she blamed a blk man for kidnapping her children and all that fake crying she was doing. She should never get out
She shouldn't have ever been eligible for parole. Thaank god they denied it.
Did anyone ever think she had postpartum depression? That was real 30 yrs ago.
Unfortunately she can try again every two years
Well you don’t make the rules
Fake crying again. This woman is still dangerous to society.
@@wendyzj2705it was! I went through it and my doctors were completely ignorant.
To prove the point, my obgyn called me two years later and said, “I’ve got another gal with depression. How did you deal with it?”. Wtf?
The only empathy I feel is for the ex husband. His grief is real. She should never get out alive.

Wiping away no tears whatsoever just like when the boys were missing. Phoney.
Oh my God, this woman is something else poor Me! Poor me. She wants everyone to feel sorry for her 😂
Yeah, that's how she cried on national TV making the nation believe someone had kidnapped her 2 children!!
Fake crying. This woman is unbelievable.
Exactly
Wouldn't believe a word she says, no, I'm not empathetic for her one bit!
I feel for David Smith, thank God she was not granted parole. I just have to say that the women standing behind David chewing gum is so disgusting!
Her crying was so FAKE, way Back! She wouldnt even look up, during The TV interview! I sensed It at that time, It was So FAKE!
Heartfelt. David is his sons' voice. Proud of him.

Wiped nothing. What an act!
@@Dustandfuzzexactly, a lot of drama, never saw ONE tear
Yep
No tears!
She could have left them with David and walk away
If ONLY she had walked away, and let those beautiful little brothers grow up and live their precious lives.
She could have saved them when the car was slowly rolling down the ramp into the lake. I bet she’s not even haunted by what she did.
That is exactly what I said.
@@ashleyrose7100 yes, absolutely.
Too bad the Family has to go through this crap every two years.
... it is and will be a bitter sweet time, but in their hearts... much worth it to keep her behind bars.
She makes no mention of the two young children. How on earth is there any remorse?
She did mention them. She said that, at the time, she believed that death was best for the boys! No explanation as to why she 'believed' it.

To o.p. I agree. If I did something to my kids, I'd feel I should never get out.
Her remorse is for herself, not for what she did to her babies.

It was her poor acting. She kept wiping no tears. She’s fake and glad they saw through her acting.
@jillp3761 I agree with you. The same crocodile tears we saw back in the 1990's.
Susan Smith and Diane Downs Should never get out !!
For sure.
I immediately thought of Diane Downs, since she shot her children to also be with her lover. Disgusting.
Agreed Judy. I’m 55, I’m a native Oregonian…. The Diane Downs case was HUGE when I was a kid. HUGE….so I’ve followed it very closely through out the years.

Some things cannot b forgiven.

Not ONCE did she mention her boys. Not once.
I was 18 when you did this and remember it like yesterday! See ya in 2 years when you denied AGAIN!!!! You don’t deserve to be out!

Am so sorry this happened to you and your family, your daughter heartbreaking stay safe take care..
I’m so sorry! 😢
It's all about her!! Judging by her prison record, she is beyond help .
She should never get paroled. NEVER.
They will always deny her parole.
She should never get out alive, just like her innocent little boys drowning in that car.
She had 30 years to prepare and this was the best she could do . Wow!!
My thoughts too.
Classic narcissist who thinks they can bamboozle everyone in their presence!
She knew exactly what she did and she doesn’t deserve freedom.
In one breath says she is sorry and the next says she is not guilty of what she was charged with. This is not remorse. She won’t even accept what she has done. Dangerous woman and should be kept locked up. Life should mean life for an adult knowingly and with planning beforehand commiting murder.
Agree 100% and waste of time and money do hearing for murderer
Yes....she wanted to marry the other guy & leave her husband. Her lover didn't want kids around. She is a sicko!
30 yrs went by fast. Keep her locked up forever.
I can't believe this family has to go through this every 2 years !!!!!!
Yes, the gaps between parole hearings should be much longer than 2 years.
At least they didnt have to be in the same room
She is such a LIAR !! she get’s in trouble in prison sleeping with guard’s having men send her money she can’t be trusted at all‼️ 🤥🤥🤥🤥
She didnt apologize to David AT ALL IN THAT HEARING!!! GOD BLESS YPU DAVID AND YOUR FAMILY🙏🏻
David said she never, ever apologized even after 30 years. I hope life is good for him.💕
She didn’t know… Wow she killed her boys over a man how sad
A MAN who didn’t even WANT her. Pathetic
Yeah, and where is that man now?
Her fake cry irritates me
that southern accent is also fake
Her breathing irritates me.
TO ADD... If a black man was arrested, and she confirmed his identity, WE ALL KNOW he most likely would still be rotting in a SOUTH Carolina prison, or would've been executed by now.
Exactly
That would not have been possible because there would have been no evidence for it.

About 15% of me was willing to hear her out and then I did ….. nope send her back to prison. It was REALLY hard to watch. Sick.

SMH
Time will never heal the loss of a child, especially since it was their own mother that ended their life.. so sad.. 👩
Susan Smith could have handed the boys to her ex and went on to live whatever life she wanted instead she chose to kill two beautiful boys.
She took her children's lives. That is unforgivable. She should have given the children to her husband.
How do take 2 sons from a man and sit there and cry for mercy????!!!
I do feel for them knowing they have to go thru this every 2 years. It’s awful. She should never get out. EVER
Poor David and family. Sad they have to be there every two years. She has given the family a life sentence. 😢
She should spend the rest of her life in prison period
She's sorry? Yeah, sorry that she is locked up!
Our hearts broke with Davids that horrific day, and I believe when he says " Susan only thinks of Susan". So glad she was denied parole and hopefully she will always be denied. Justice for Alex and Michael Smith 💔❤️💔
You kill your children you never get a life outside of prison.

So terrible that our criminal system allows for the family to relive all this trauma every 2 years .I truly wonder who makes these rules .😮
She should never be let out of prison. My heart goes out to David, Michael and Alex. ❤
She had a handsome husband cheated for what ?
The other guy was supposedly rich. But he didn't stay around , did he? Even after she took care of the matter of children.
Let’s not say it was a mental health issue when it was a selfish issue.

I lost my 22 year old son in 2016 and I can agree with David that time will never heal the wounds from the loss of a child, when he said it could be any date or year that can be harder than others I could relate to that so much. I will be doing okay one day and the next the pain just hits all over again and I think to myself that I will never see my son again I’ll never get to hug him or talk to him that he’s gone forever and that pain hits hard. David didn’t lose just one child he lost both of his children and the grief he’s feeling is unimaginable, the loss of my son destroyed me I couldn’t imagine losing my daughter too. My heart breaks for him and I hope Susan never gets released, she should spend the rest of her life in prison.
Murder is inhumane
Wtf does Susan thinks she needs to be out here again for
Parole Hearings seem like the victims have to relive the horror of the time they lost someone so precious to them.. My heart goes out to David cause i'm sure there's not one minute he doesn't think about his babies.
She had no tears !!!!!! Such a bad person.
She should never ever be eligible for parole.
They were beautiful little boys, I can't understand their mother's motives and actions.😢
She deserves to be there just for putting this blame on an innocent Black man that could have lost his freedom because of her description.
How is the death penalty in humane but what these people do is not inhumane? Or is it inhumane also?
What if by chance two black men had been around the area at the time and been convicted? Even accused they’d need lawyers and go through trial.
“I knew it was time to grow up”… says the mother who snuffed out that opportunity for her two young sons.
There's no tears!!
She continues to wipe away the tears that aren't there.
She needs to stay in prison for the rest of her life what she did to her little boys I don’t feel one bit sorry for her from Donna in Sydney Australia 🇦🇺
Can you imagine the pain of the father’s public scrutiny by the press and others??? SHE OWES HIM MONEY HUNNY.
Shes crying for herself and not those sweet innocent boys that never got a chance to live their lives
what an ignorant woman susan smith is. she's had 30 yrs to develop herself and what came out of her mouth showed she has not a clue about anyone or anything around her. The father of Michael and Alex, on the other hand, spoke with an immense amount of emotion that showed a huge amount of emotional intelligence - never have I heard such a truthful and heartful experience from a father who has had to live the past 30 years with the loss of his boys. I pray for this father and his family.
She said during the trial and now here that she loved the boys with all her heart. How then...?
Yeah, I heard that too. Guess she's trying to sound good on camera
You love them with all your heart? You don't do what you did to them and say that.
What a wonderful man! ❤
Drowning is such a horrible way to die....as if killing wasn't enough that's the death she chose for her own children.
The worst part for me was hearing that they died holding each other's hands. Their hands were still clapsed together when they were found.
@cathysnedegar6711 Absolutly heartbreaking. I hope she never sees the light of day again but even thinking of the poor father. Who has now to face the biggest loss and trauma of his life on the regular in front of the world to keep this woman behind bars.
She has the audacity to tell the Board she loves the two babies she murdered ... if she loved them, they would be alive today enjoying their lives.
I’ll never forget hearing about that on the news, it was so horrific . I hope she rots in prison
The boys daddy suffering will never end ,grief never goes away, time doesn't heal ,we learn to live with the grief. Poor boys heartbreaking
She should NEVER be released. I remember this case, and it was horrific. She killed those boys so she could be with her lover, a man who didn't want kids in his life. SUCH A LIAR!
I didnt see any tears but she was constantly dabbing the sides of her eyes. The dry heaving was so fake, like she was trying to force it.
Nothing is her fault 🙄
Smith is a true narcissist.
HORRIFIC ! Those poor innocent babies! She should NEVER get out !!!! EVIL
God bless David, the father. My heart broke for him the day I first saw him begging to get his children back, and it broke for him 30 years later at Susan’s parole hearing. I pray God comforts him, and takes away his pain🙏
She is not sorry she never told her husband sorry or asked for forgiveness and all the people she has hurt anyone
You’d be shocked how many mothers would prioritise their itch over their own flesh and blood… what a shame
Mmhmm
Such a sad case.😮😢❤❤
What Smith did is unimaginable, it's downright evil, to watch her children scream out for her and just stand by and watch them drown, she needs to stay in there forever.
I didn’t feel anything when she gave her impact statement. It reminded me when she blamed a blk man for kidnapping her children and all that fake crying she was doing. She should never get out
