ok, I just watched the video. WOW. If my children died, I would NOT be able to breathe, let alone go on camera and act the way she did. She shows no remorse, she shows shame and she KNOWS she is to blame. She doesn't even shed real tears... crocodile tears. How pathetic. I am so angry with her! She is just as much to blame as that loser boyfriend of the week is. Typical SA female. Too many kids, jumping from one loser deadbeat guy to the next, putting their kids last! Get a clue SA, this town needs birth control!! At least these 2 gorgeous children are in heaven together, probably hugging and laughing with each other :) This lady should have her other kid taken away. I'm not being harsh, because the adults in this town need to be PUNISHED more severely to prevent CHILD ABUSE! Kids don't have anyone to protect them, if their own MOTHER doesn't care enough! I'm so angry :( 2 innocent lives lost.....WHY? ...because their stupid mother didn't enforce the law to protect them! I have no sympathy for her, would never give this chick money, she'd probably spend it on barbacoa tacos, big red and crack. THat seems to be the staples of the residents of this town.. at least the southside low lifes like her. ugh, I am so angry. I am HISPANIC but I have more respect for myself than to behave so poorly and carelessly like her! I am RACIST, RACIST against everyone who behaves with low morals, and goes against the laws.. of nature, of the Bible, and of society. I'm not perfect, but I CARE! I'm a mom of 2,and I LOVE and respect children more than stupid ass adults because they cannot take care of themselves.

How sad. What an incredible LOSER that guy is! Comments are right, WHO IN THE HELL WOULD not buckle their children? Was she on crack with him? The innocent always suffer. She needs to go to jail for child endangerment! Involuntary manslaughter. No REAL mother would do what she did. Too many LOSER ass girls having too many babies with LOSER ass boys in this town. There should be clinics in town: FREE CRACK IF YOU GET SURGICALLY/PERMANENTLY FIXED, no more babies for you crack heads!!!! Watch the crack head population die off! :)

RIP babies.... to the mom hope your boyfriend of 2mos was worth it, should have gotten to know him a little more... i know accidents will happen. The news said he loved those kids??? Not only did he leave them to die he left the scene. To the pathetic looser you can run but you cant hide. One day you will have to face that day. Mom let him go to jail DON'T bail him out......

This is very sad. The lose of a child is a life shattering event. Having said that though, this mother had a responsibility to her children's safety to insure that they were properly secured in an approved child seat. By all accounts in this report she did not do that. Shame on her, the pain of this lose will haunt her forever.

Sadly, I would not donate to the funeral fund, and it's by no means the poor innocent childrens faults but the faults of the idiot low life mother and her idiot low life "flavor of the month" that probably abused her and the kids, who knows. Way to pick em Mom. You're pathetic. Who in the hell lets their young kids ride in the car without being properly strapped in???? You're on a highway flying down at 65, 70, 80 who knows how fast your dumb ass was letting your flavor of the month drive your kids AND your NEPHEW! I pray for your soul and God bless those poor babies. At least they are with God and not you.

Boyfriend fled the scene...children were not properly strapped in. HMMMMMMMM.....Don't date losers and take CARE of your kids and you won't be left injured and left planning funerals for your two small children. I'm not judging, I'm just saying. What's that saying? Seatbelts save lives???

It is not often that a mother senses that her children will die soon and gets a chance to talk to them about it. I'm not a fan of discussing their own funerals with children, but I understand that these things happen, and the horror of the discussion troubles me.
