Why do taxpayers need to pay for a mental health doctor for someone who scratches her wrist with a pencil? Obviously she has mental issues or she wouldnt be where she is now. Let it go and wait for trial. We need to stop this free ride prisoner care issue.
#1.1 THE ONE YOU KNOW on 01/13/10 at 03:07 PM
The messed up part is that unless you are a criminal you cant get any kind of care. I am a single mom who struggles my butt off everyday to provide for my kids. I cant get insurance. I cant afford it. But if I murder someone or steal a bunch I can get medical, dental, mental illness and all kinds of other care. I can fake a gut cramp to take a trip to the E.R. and its all paid for. Thats crappy. Criminals are the only ones who have it all. Food, Clothing, someone who washes their clothes, cooks their meals, cable for free, no bills at all and they are taken care of. I say let her. If she wants to die let her go. dont keep giving her pencils. Step it up give her a spoon.. ohh no or some paper.. maybe she'll give herself a massive paper cut. Im sorry but I personally can not cry for these fools. Its attention. If you give it to them they will get worse.

Single Mom? How did you do that. You should have waited before you started struting your butt around. I'm sure the taxpayers are paying for your fun and faking a cramp in the EM room. We can't cry for fools who get knocked up and then call yourself a single mom.

You dont know crap!! you dont know what happened, her husband could have died, her husband could have left her, you dont know so before you judge somebody get some facts first because i am sure you are not perfect

Did they teach you safe sex in grade school.

who is to say she is not a divorcee? that would make her a single mom....
#1.1.2.1.1 Wrong on 01/15/10 at 10:54 AM
Not even Mary was a single Mom.
#2 Only One on 01/13/10 at 07:08 AM
Ok..lets be good Christians and refrain from judgement. We have no idea what is going on inside her head or what sort of life she had. Leave the judgement to the only being that is pure and all-knowing.
#3 me on 01/13/10 at 10:42 AM
I have a whole box of #2's she's welcome too.
#3.1 Sheila Tolley on 01/13/10 at 12:32 PM
She is lucky that man that shot Buzz did not shoot her too.
#3.1.1 A'SHIRLEY on 01/13/10 at 09:20 PM
I KNOW .........

GET HER A SECRATERY NOW TO GO WITH ALL THAT HEALTH CARE SHE'S GETTING AND LET HER SIT ON DEATH ROW FOR 30 YRS ........

scrathing your wrist and cutting your wrist,there is a big difference in that.maybe it was just a SCRATCH...end of story,tell her to be more careful or take her pencils away from her..

I am praying for ALL involved in this situation. It is so sad~
#6 Frustrated on 01/14/10 at 04:37 PM
I have a box of razor blades she can have. That might do better than pencils. We won't have to take care of her murdering a..!!!! Anymore.
#7 that is right on 01/14/10 at 07:40 PM
boo hoo i am telling you right now she is going to play crazy to try to get out of this watch and see

It doesn't take long for the sanctimonious comments to appear.
#8.1 cats on 01/15/10 at 06:20 AM
So true, and for the comments to the single mom, I expect better of people.
Don't call yourselves Christians, those of you who had the ugly comments for the single mom.
I do need to mention, single mom, that the illegal immigrants can also expect a better level of health care than us insured patients, since Medicaid foots the bill.
Back to Borousas, she obviously was depressed at the holidays. If she is indeed guilty of her crime, it serves her right.

To comment # 1.1.1 calling themselves WOW...I have a question for you...will your insurance pay for you to have my foot surgically removed from your @ss?! Oh wait...first you must remove YOUR HEAD from YOUR @SS!!!

Are you seriously that stupid and moronic to believe what you actually typed in your comment box? You could be educated on SO MANY levels, but why bother when you obviously have jello for a brain...not to mention the 'tin man syndrome'.

(P.S. I know you will not get that...tin man = Wizard of Oz = Had No Heart)
#9.1 Pray for you on 01/16/10 at 11:10 AM
So what happen to make her a single mom?Did she just wake up one morning and rub her belly? She could be in a circus side show. No one wants your foot up their rear, you might also wear a halo and be a devine single mom.
#9.1.1 HE ONE YOU KNOW on 01/22/10 at 06:32 PM
OH MY... ok let me say this to all of the ones with the nasty comments.. No I didnt get pregnant all by myself. No I wasnt crying on anyones shoulder or looking for pitty. I was married to the same asshole for 10 years. He happens to be a D.B.S.D. (dead beat sperm donor) for those who couldnt figure it out. And yes for those who will make even more nasty comments, those do exist. You know dads who pretend to give a crap in front of people, but dont. So to answer all of the questions. No I didnt join a side show, Im not Mary, there was help. Now to Mr. Willis yes they did teach safe sex. But Im sure you and WOW are the same type of idiots I mentioned above. So.. enough said on that part. I was with someone who I expected to spend the rest of my life with. Things change. People change and he had other plans. His loss. Now back to my point its sad when americans cant get the care they need. Bust their tails 50+ hours a week to make ends meet. And BTW no one takes care of me or my children. I DO IT MYSELF. But it starts to wear at a person when the bills are paid, food is on the table, my babies have a soft warm spot to lay their heads and I have 25.00 left to last until the next check comes in. I go to a job that is crappy, attend college again to try and better myself and deal with idiots like you who hate themselves and life. My point was that this great place we call America is trillions of dollars in debt and cant even afford to help out its citizens, but hey, lets give millions to other countries or health care, food and shelter to that scumbag that raped, sodomized, beat and chopped up that grandmother of 8 or mom of three. Its disgusting. To those who were nice enough to defend my comments thank you for being true, intelligent people. To the others.. only GOD can judge me. Your opinion doesnt count, but thank you for wasting your time on my comments. At least you are giving someone else a rest.

very well said!!
#9.1.1.2 Now we know on 01/23/10 at 08:29 AM
You were married to Steve Marro. Did'nt your warn you to stay away from Carpetbaggers?
#9.1.1.3 Sheila Tolley on 01/23/10 at 10:02 AM
It sounds like you made a mistake, like we all make. It also sounds like you are working hard to get your act together. The hard work you are doing will one day become intelligent advice for your children. America is still the best country in the world, even though I have even less respect for obama than I did clinton....which I thought was impossible. A poor person could go into the White House with some authority and balance the budget in a year. I totally believe we should help countries in need such as Haiti. I also totally believe every illegal immigrant should be sent ASAP back to their country and any American paying them should go to jail. Hang it there, kiddo, you are on the right track.

Thats all you get from some of these posts. For a moment, I thought this was 1600's Salem, Massachusetts.
All these people need is a pitch fork.

Thank you 10~Andy~people are SO quick to judge others/Any one of us could be wrongly accused of a crime at any point and time~
#11.1 Anonymous on 01/17/10 at 07:38 PM
why do you say accused when she admitted killing him
#12 Sheila Tolley on 01/15/10 at 01:24 PM
It truly IS NOT the old America. The old America had speedy trials, swift justice and a draft that taught discipline to those who seemed to not have it at home. The streets would have less of a crowd, buying and selling, and the Military would be instilling pride to those who wanted to work for it. I miss the Old America.
#13 Sheila Tolley on 01/16/10 at 11:14 AM
My number 12 comment was meant to follow Andy's number 10. Sorry about that!
#14 anon on 01/16/10 at 06:07 PM
You mean they didn't send out life flight because she scratched her arm with a pencil?
#15 willie wonka on 01/22/10 at 10:00 AM
It is amazing this story make the front page of the paper, they must be desperate for news. A pencil mark on her wrist, this is news???
#16 Dark Chocolate on 01/22/10 at 04:00 PM
No, what is amazing is how long the Roosevelt Willie story and photo remains.
