"I'm not a policeman -- I'm a mom," she said. "I believe in karma, I believe that very strongly. I believe that if you do things that you shouldn't do, that a lot of [expletive] happens to you," Anita said. "He didn't want to listen to his parents. He didn't listen to me, this last time. I tried to do my best. I don't think I could have done more. He's considered an adult right now. He has to do whatever he needs to do, and that is tell the truth [about] what happened."

A mother's love is unconditional...at least that's what we like to think. Personally, I think that's taking it too far. If she had a daughter that was killed by a monster like he is, she would feel differently, He's not sick , he is a sly killer.

You can't help but feel a bit sorry for her. Can you imagine having that psycho as a family member? Can you imagine knowing the world would be a better place without your psycho kid in it?

your exactly right. i want everyont to love my son and treat him with the utmost kindness. as well as my daughter. to think almost everyone in the entire world views him as a killer. thats just terrible for her.

Yes, actually he is. He murdered two beautiful women in cold blood. You don't get much more monstrous than that.

the fact that she defended him the first time could be one of the main reasons he thought he could get away with it again. the fact that he took 2 LIVES says that he's MORE than a monster: He's a HEARTLESS Monster.

What he has done, is horrible. It is the acts of what a deviant monster would do! Your son is sadistic and has tormented Natalie's mother for years with his smirk and antics. God will deal with him, God knows ALL, sees ALL!!

I'm sorry but my personal belief is she's talking to get the police off her. She's knows what happened to Natalie I believe this. She is very close to her son.
That's my opinion

Lady, your son is a monster. He has murdered two girls, and who knows how many we don't know about.
