Poor little Cristina, she must have been terrified. As for the joint defendants, particularly Cristina's mother who appeared to find the verdict such a shock, what on earth did they think the verdict would be? Putting a disabled child in a hot car for nearly six hours, while they carried on with life without a thought for her wellbeing. Despicable people!

Tragic as it was, this is what it was. So sad for all concerned, but you can't get away with the death by neglect of your child because you took drugs. She knows full well that this is a just sentence. However, she was destined to be in a prison of guilt for the rest of her life anyway. As for Larry, he didn't sign up for this, but sadly, he should have known better, too. He was there. Like Rita, he let it happen. I wonder what the sentencing will be.

The oldest daughter was charged herself, a week after Cristina died. She also left her children in a hot car in front of Walmart. CPS involved and she was arrested. I think this mother has been leaving her kids in the car - likely since she first had kids. Passing on bad parenting tips.
So she left her disabled daughter in a car for 5hrs and she thought she was gonna be found not guilty? Rest in peace poor little girl😢

People need to stop leaving their children and their pets in hot cars. Just leave the pets safe at home and take your kids with you into the air conditioned store. Wake up and realize the inside of a car gets very hot very quickly. Leaving a car running isn’t safe either. Use common sense and just don’t leave animals alone in the car for any reason. People think they are only gone for “5 minutes” but they get distracted in the store. This is a horrific way to die for a child or a pet.🙏🏻😢😿
Great Judge ❤
I forgot my toddler was in the back seat one morning. Normally I took her to the babysitter on my way to work. Just seconds after I passed the babysitters exit I remembered where I was supposed to be going. After turning around, and taking her to the sitter, I was in shock that I forgot her that easily. At 51 years of age I have never forgotten that morning. It never happened again. My heart feels compassion for parents that have lost a child this way. It would be a nightmare! However, these two are different.

That's the worst case of denial I've ever seen if she thought she was getting away with it!! She deliberately put her daughter in the car and left her to die. It's no different to roman days when they left the vulnerable out in the woods at the edge of the city to die. She's lucky the punishment is only prison and that she has a rest of her life. It's more consideration than she gave her child.
She’s just sad for herself!

This judge is AMAZING... He was the judge for the Akic Murdock trial. HE DOESN'T MESS AROUND. U DID SOMETHING HE CAN TELL QUILT. HE CAN SMELL IT OUT WITH YEARS OF EXPERIENCE. He doesn't waste taxpayers' dollars with a miss trial when he knows in his soul the quilt. He also has the utmost respect for the jury. What's that mean?. He isn't going to let the jury's time go to waste. He respects that they are away from their family's and jobs. He thanks them several times. HES AN AMAZING judge. Now for this lady to cry I'm surprised she didn't fall on the floor. When ur a parent u are 1000 percent responsible for that child forever. She dam well knows what she did. I can't be in a hot car for 5 min nor do I let my pet stay in the car not even with the windows down. How many times d I we all have to be told that the car is alot hotter than outside. I'm so sorry for that angle. For the daughter to yalk Luke this lady was mother of the year made me sick. Good moms don't do what she did. Good moms don't smoke crack and leave their baby's in the car. Shame on them. Now they will spend I hope the rest of their lives in jail. I just don't get people?.

Respect to the jury and Judge Newman.
Good for South Carolina. Those two must have been living in their own crazy world if they thought people would not find them responsible for their callous treatment of the girl. He had total disrespect for human life, and she was a miserable mother who put a creep first and over her responsibility to her child. She could have handed the child over to the father, her other daughter or the State over the slow torture the girl suffered under her care.

But he got 32 years and is expected to serve 20. I think Rita though is not going to be well liked in jail for what she did. She should have gotten life.

Did she actually think she was going to walk out of the Courtroom a free woman? I was shocked & disgusted when she cried out "Oh My God" not once but twice after her 2nd guilty verdict was read. You left you're helpless precious daughter Christina slowly suffocating & suffering in pain to fry in that sweltering hot car for hours until she died. Wondering why her mother wasn't going to rescue her! At least her ex boyfriend stood their & accepted the Jurors decision. Christina's star will shine the brightest of all when all the stars come out @ night. Fly high with the Angels Christina you'll soar in you're beautiful wings! ❤Ontario, 🇨🇦
Hallelujah! I'm not religious but that is deserved.

Not a tear from her eyes,he had his shades on so no telling about him! What a pair of monsters.
I MADE A BIG MISTAKE & REALIZED WHY CHAT WAS SO ANGRY WITH ME!! At first, I was totally against the bf being criminally charged because he wasn't her father, caregiver, or mandated reporter. However, that was BEFORE I found out I missed an entire day of trial, which included his testimony & the video replay!! I didn't know he had left Christina in the car, the entire time her mother was gone & NEVER went back outside, until she FINALLY returned!! That makes all the difference in the world because the moment she left, he would be responsible for Christina's well-being and his neglegence makes him legally culpable for her death!! BEFORE watching that day, I was trying to explain how Jurors are supposed to disregard their emotions and only consider the evidence, facts of the case, & the laws that govern the state during deliberations. (If he didn't leave, then police would have never been able to legally charge him.) Yeah it sucks & he's a POS but, culpability laws only apply to parents, guardians, and mandated reporters. There should be a law that requires people to either help or report negligence, abuse, or neglect when it pertains to a child under 18.

This is so heartbreaking. Poor baby her mother didn't protect her and RIP.
What in the world did these 2 think was going to happen? This was definitely murder based on the extreme indiffence. What harm could there have been to have that child in the house?
What's with the sound? Really bad
Mom is guilty as sin but I feel a little for Larry. I think he was unfortunately put in a situation where he was responsible for someone’s life when he was in no type of state to be responsible for anything. I feel manslaughter would have been more appropriate for him.
Excellent job, excellent verdict, excellent sentence

Poor little Cristina! RIP little innocent one. This was such a sad situation. Meth lead to heartache, tragedy and lifelong regret! I wonder if this mother will ever wake up and realize what she did 😢 💔
IF that woman is actually crying & emotional it's only feeling sorry for herself.
The way the kill*r mother utters "oh my god" was so shocking..
Wow, she seemed like she really thought they'd find her innocent, are you kidding me, sounds like sticking the daughter in the car was a habit of hers, who does that?
How could she react so viscerally to the verdict? Did she actually expect to be acquitted? Why did these two even request a trial? The crime was captured on video. They should have fought for a plea bargain or just pleaded guilty and thrown themselves on the mercy of the court.
Rip sweet little girl. 😢 They both deserve life in prison. At any point they could of taken her out of car and not let her suffer. 😢
I know that voice..great judge..
I don't understand why if she felt she could not care for her anymore that she did not place her daughter in some kind of nursing home or assisted living facility where she could have gotten help with her.
I would have been shocked for any other verdict… Larry could have taken action and he did not.
