I'm speechless.

I could never understand how anyone can kill a child, but to kill your own children is just unimaginable to me. If we still had the death penalty........ but we don't, and so I hope they get put into prison for the rest of their lives with no parole.

The number of parents killing their children these days is unbelievable. The usual excuse is mental health problems. But for both parents to conspire and plot the deaths of all their children is pure evil. As for putting them away for life? For goodness sake those poor kids didn't stand a chance. Those evil monsters will at least open their eyes every morning, albeit behind bars. Why give them the luxury of life . Murderers like that should face the death penalty. If not hanging ,then give them a lethal injection.

horrifying, isn't it. I don't think he's the father, is he? You do get cases where a woman's new man (if that's what he is) wants her children from a previous relationship out of the way. Lions do that too, so it's a very animal thing. But I don't know if that was the situation here.

I got it wrong ^^^^. According to the link he is a family member . He plotted with the mother to kill the children.

evil..why dont the parent just hand them over to social services, and say we cannot do this anymore, better safe then sorry. arrogance spite
pride?

It's horrendous to even think about but children are so often harmed or killed by those who should care the most.

A whole of life sentence is surely the only one possible here.

[marval]

How dreadful, words fail me.

They deserve nothing less than a life sentence.

[andy-hughes]

In this situation, people are mentally ill or evil, time will tell.

[ummmm]

No normal person could comprehend it.

[waterboatman]

They should not be allowed to live! How evil can you get?

I am very much against capital punishment..but could make an exception here... up against a wall and let the community stone them ! heinous hideous excuses for humanity... poor babies
