Yes, it is sad but this mother has been found guilty of neglecting her child in the worst way imaginable. I just wish people (other family members, neighbors, teachers) who might have suspected something "was not right" had intervened. The mother was obviously incompetent and in need of some serious help, which she probably won't get while in prison, but at least she will not be able to NEGLECT another child to death. Hell of a saving grace, I know ...
