He said he's worried she may incriminate herself. But I'm not sure how to balance that against the need to find the children....unless they are all pretty certain the kids are dead.

I find this whole damn story so disturbing; sorry I even read this thread. Those poor kids!

I don't blame a sick mother for being profoundly mentally ill.

I blame the family and friends around her for knowing how sick she is and being in denial about her danger to her kids. Those kids are paying the price for a families' collective denial.

Wow, John McCarthy himself was in court asking for her temporary release to lead the police to the kids.

That's too awful to contemplate.


I don't know that I'd say it's worse than her actively killing them... both are pretty terrible.

Police said at that press conference a month ago or so that she gave several names of people she gave the kids to and they checked them all out. Some of them were logistically impossible for her to have seen.

A judge said she isn't competent and refused to sign the order.

It also said she's schizophrenic.

Probably not. Most likely they've been unable to locate the bodies at the most probable dump sites and don't have the manpower to continue searching.

Sadly, these kids are most likely dead and their remains may eventually turn up accidentally. I feel sorry for the father and extended family b/c even though they probably know in their hearts that the kids are dead, they would at least have some closure.

No. I follow Montgomery County Police on facebook, and they regularly post updates when there is anything new. Nothing for weeks.
