3. This is her SECOND pregnancy since being indicted. Trying to use both kids on trial to sway the jury. Didn't work.

+1

Any guy would do, any rich guy, that is.

I know it’s wrong, but I feel bad at the thought of a mom being ripped away from young children.

I know, I know. I could never be a judge.

Those poor kids will be better off away from her.

I feel deeply that it was selfish of her to have kids knowing she’d be in prison. Just very selfish to have a child and know they will be without a mother.

Yes, very obvious to me that the main driver for getting pregnant was to get a lower sentence. Or, she could have just had one.

She's a POS. The end.

No one forced her to have those kids. They’re just props for her.

She's not being ripped away. She chose this knowing she'd probably go to prison and didn't care.

That’s a serious sentence for something she did in her early twenties. (I know, I KNOW: people get jailed for youthful mistakes all the time, disproportionate impacts, oppression, etc, etc. Not the point here.)

I wonder how they’ll cope. Will they not want the kids to see her in jail? Or will they expose them to prison waiting rooms? And will she try to claim some special circumstance to go to a “better” facility?

For the average mom, I’d agree, but I’m okay with children being raised without a parent who has no conscience and endangered the lives of others in pursuit of fame and money.

She was a fraud and corrupt individual for 15+ years you mean?

She deserves this sentencing - people died from falsified test results from her ‘invention’.

Hush if you don’t know what you’re talking about. NOBODY died. They couldn’t even find anyone who was physically harmed. The worst they were able to show at trial was that someone received a false negative pregnancy test and someone received bad blood work. That’s it. It really didn’t have major medical effects, only financial.

Can anyone explain to me ( I am not American) how an unattractive and weird looking woman who is a liar and a scammer landed a much younger very rich man? Got pregnant twice too. Is he a masochist? Serious question.

This choice is absolutely fitting of her character. Thankfully the judge saw through her ruse.
