BellaOnline Forums News and Politics Crime Octuplet mom receives death threats

The mom of the recent octuplets has received death threats from people as well as threats of violence.

You can read the article here

I heard a couple of recordings of phone messages she has received, played on CNN last night. I know this is a bizarre situation, but death threats should not be tolerated.

The birth of these babies certainly took the country by surprise, and I am sure guidelines and/or laws will need to be put into effect. But to threaten someones life over this situation is not the answer.

And are people thinking where is that going ot leave the babies if someone does kill her?? Come on. People are so stupid.

These are the same people who are blowing up abortion clinics.

They kill the pregnant women - so now they've killed the mother AND child.

There is something wrong with this woman, (obviously), and I definitely think the state should step in, investigate her and run some psychological testing on her. But killing her is NOT the answer.

(Of course I'm preaching to the choir here....)

yes the state should step in. She is not working and was already on welfare assisstance and there was another article that said it will cost taxpayers about 1.3 million dollars now with her and all of the children on there now.

If she can take care of them, all the more power to her; however, an unemployed woman who now has 14 children, some with disabilities, whose parents are exasperated and exhausted, who thinks her church will help her, needs psychological testing big time. Death threats are a ridiculous reaction to all of this but people sometimes carry out those threats. I hope they pull the doctor's license. He should have done everything in his power to dissuade her and it should have included big time counseling.

The people making the death threats should be arrested and put in jail.

I do not think much of the woman for having the kids and now pleading for money.......but death threats won't solve anything.

The Dr - yeah - he needs to stop practicing.

I agree. Threats are never a solution regardless of your dislike for an individual.

It bothers me that at first she said she was going to care for them all herself and that people should lay off - and now she's asking everyone for money and saying everyone should donate to her cause. There are lots of kids out there that really DO need help and support, that have no food at all. Charity money should not be going in her direction. She has proven she does not have the mature judgment to handle the situation.

That is very hard to understand why and it should definitely not be put up with at any cost. Private Investigator.
