Crazy realtor hurting kids

How is jail time going to help her if she has a mental disorder? She should be institutionalized in a psychiatric facility where she can get professional help and kept away from the public.[/quote]

While we may conclude she has some mental issues, that is not the standard the law uses. She did not plead insanity as a defense. I think most anyone who abuses children has mental issues. But absent a finding that they are not guilty by reason of insanity, they must be punished for their criminal behavior.

Or, we can just place everyone who abuses, rapes, molests, or kills children into a psychiatric facility. Because we want to help those poor folks get better.

In addition, it is clear that she knew that what she was doing was wrong and did nothing to help herself (such as voluntarily admitting herself to a psychiatric hospital). A potential jail term is one of the few threats that society can use to get people (and their families) to do something before a situation such as this one gets out of hand. It may not be her fault that she has a mental disorder, but it is her fault that she didn’t try to do something about it and/or protect society from her problem.

Should the law just punish the hell out of people or attempt to rehabilitate them? In general, it looks like society has determined the former. While it feels good, you do sometimes have to wonder where it’s all heading. Put messed up people in dangerous hellholes where they can fester and become much more vicious, then let em out again. Rinse and repeat. I’m not saying forgive everything, I’m not saying I know any better than anyone else, and I’m not saying that’s not an exceptionally creepy weird crime. Just, well, we shouldn’t pretend we’re actually going to discourage future bad acts.

The most important part of my life are my three beautiful children, who I have raised while doing real estate! Anyone who knows me will tell you that I have gone on listing and showing appointments with short notice, and basically have never stopped working since I had my first son, Johnny, six years ago. I remember holding an open house on Sunday and giving birth to Johnny on Monday. I remember delivering Paige on a Sunday morning and then calling a client about an offer that had come through the fax while I was delivering. Mothering is the most important job and it is nice to know that you can have your children at home while you are working.
——————

Is it me, or does she sound as though she thinks having kids is a major inconvenience, and that she is willing to put them aside for her “precious” real estate business? It’s like she’s trying too hard to convince people that her kids are “the most important things in her life,” while also saying that they are very much in her way…and that she has no problem pushing them out of the way so that she can attend to her RE business (and glorifying herself in the process).
