I decided to do some channel surfing about 20 minutes ago. I landed on Oprah. She was interviewing Jessica Coleman, an teenage inmate who was prosecuted for the death of her newborn baby.
It was disturbing to watch this woman. How could she hide that she was pregnant? How could she kill her own child by crushing its skull and stabbing it to death? How could she then stuff her baby into a bag, and in her closet, to throw away later in a lake?
As she described her story, she did not cry. Instead, she attempted to look sad and "bothered". However, we know better.
The saddest part? Of her actions, she stated, "It wasn't intentional" -- a typical excuse by troubled women to deny accountability for their own sick and cruel actions toward others. I'm sorry, but she had all intents and purposes to KILL her baby! There is always intent, and this is a sly and deceiving way of "wiggling out of" liability toward others.
This is the icing on the cake. Just when I thought I'd seen and experienced everything, I was blown away by her story. Surprised? Not in the least. However, I fear for the health of our future offspring. We are failing as people, as a continent, as a society, and as a world.
This is beyond heartless. Unfortunately, there are so many others like her. I seriously doubt these women will ever learn about accountability, respect, etc. when it comes to other human beings and basic courtesy and respect. Somehow, these women have grown to believe they are immune to accountability and honesty. Fortunately, this woman's actions caught up to her: She's in a maximum security prison.
I have serious doubts that this woman will ever change. Even after prison, Jessica will emerge the same troubled woman she is today. She will live a life of repeat misery, repeating the same actions time and time again. Just as she killed her baby in cold blood, she'll always deny herself of accountability to protect her own sick and demented, yet fragile and dark state of mind. To add insult to injury, she later proclaimed that she would like to be a mother again. Sounds like a bad idea to me.
The moral of Jessica's story: "What goes around, comes around"
