I just laid my mother to rest. She died peacefully watching TV with me at her home. This horrible nurse and the place she worked at show me what it may have been. All she got was a slap on the wrist, because after she murdered the elderly she sentenced their families to a life of guilt and regret. The laws should be strenghthened and the punishment enhanced. The others who got parole should be spending time in prison as well and the nurse in my opinion should have got life behind bars instead of 3 lousy years.

Thats sucks! and were also sending this OLD lady in a wheelchair and oxygen tank to the state pen, with out taxpayer's dollars to put out more care for her there. She will be up for social sercurity when she gets out and 3 years parole...amazing!

Murdering three people by her incompetence and she only receives three years? Wonder if I shot and killed three people if I'd only get three years, I doubt it.

rvlady, based on what she was charged with, death or life sentences were not an option.
