I just cannot wrap my head around this stuff. It’s bewildering that our societal morals have come to this. I pray for the mother and children’s souls. God Bless Them.

Got tired of his wife and kids... couldn’t wait for a divorce and opted for a more permanent solution.

I would guess he couldn't face the child support and maintenance. That ain't to excuse him, but I suppose that calculation was on his twisted mind.

Helped that her family is filled with idiot bleeding heart liberals.

They may have realized that CO under a Poilis administration would never execute him anyway so a confession and life without parole was better than a protracted trial with all the gruesome details in open court.

Well, if it’s OK with the extended family VICTIMS of his crime, then that was the way to go.

Wisconsin doesn’t have a Death Penalty, either. I guess I would go that route too if someone killed one of my loved ones.

But, Man! To smother your own CHILDREN? How can he NOT be nuts? Think of Susan Smith, et al. :(

I agree. I have to defer to the family. I cannot imagine the grief they have been going through.

The crime is horrible beyond my comprehension. I have four kids, two girls, and two young granddaughters. You know how little girls steal their daddy's and grandpa's hearts. It's hard for me to conceive of a monster who would murder his own family.

I'm guessing his soon to be prison mates will be revolted by it too.

“No death penalty?”

we have it, but haven’t had a gov in a LOOOOONG let it happen ... life in prison with no parole was really the best outcome possible in this case ...

Colorado just voted to amend their constitution to prohibit prison labor unless the prisoner wants a job. He can kick back in his cell and read and eat Cheetos if he wants. There will be no hard labor for him.

Too bad for him.

If he was the wife that murdered the husbank and kids, she’d use her pusy pass and get about a third of the sentence he got. Maybe cry enough to trick an insanity defense and get some time in a institution, then freedom.

Family for Shanann didn’t what the death penalty.

It’s not their call. It’s the states liability to it’s citizens to enforce the laws and punish inhuman pieces of trash
