"An eye for an eye; tooth for a tooth!" Perhaps solitary confinement with only bread and water for an unlimited period would be appropriate here! Let her get a good taste of her own medicine! If is ever justice let this be it!

I just read that she is the mother of the worthless scum who beat a little girl to death and dumped her body near the lake a few years ago. Both she and her husband were found guilty of failure to report child abuse. They should be thrown in jail with their murderous son.

SHE doesn't look malnourished. They should make her share her food allowance with animals at the shelter.
