It says in this article April 25, 2019 that JC was 7 months pregnant. Did she give birth in prison? Why did these f*ckers keep having children if they CLEARLY did not want them? This case disgusts me to my core. Especially JC's fake tears. I don't wish ill on anyone except pedophiles, rapists, and murderers (if it wasn't self defense, the battered woman or man defense, or any case like Cyntoia Brown). I've reached a point where I have seen such horrible behaviors from the criminals of humanity on this website along with the FB groups I am in, that I fully believe in the death penalty now (unless there is any doubt whatsoever on their guilt) when I used to think it was beyond inhumane. No, what these people DO is inhumane.

I haven't looked, assuming AF & JC got life in prison w/o parole and not death penalty... sigh
