Detroit Mom Mitchelle Blair Gets Life Sentence for Putting Children in Freezer
by Erik Ortiz | Jul 17 2015, 11:47 am ET

 

The apparently remorseless Detroit mother who admitted to killing two of her children and hiding their bodies in a deep freezer was sentenced Friday morning to life in prison without parole.
Mitchelle Blair, 36, was allowed to address the Wayne County courtroom and displayed the same anger she has previously shown since her arrest in March in the horrific case.
"As horrendous as everyone thinks I am, that's fine. But I'm the only one not lying about anything," said Blair, who used her time blasting the fathers of her dead children for being absent in their lives.
Blair was initially charged with two counts of felony murder, two counts of premeditated murder and one count of torture in the deaths of her children, Stoni Ann Blair, 13, and Stephen Gage Berry, 9.
In court last month, Blair confessed to abusing and killing Stephen in 2012 and Stoni Ann in 2013, and claimed that she did so because they were sexually assaulting her now-8-year-old son.
Judge Dana Hathaway, in sentencing Blair, told her that the "greatest tragedy" was that she took away her children's chance at a better life.
"They lived in terrible fear of you, and I find that so sad in this case," Hathaway said. "After all is said and done, you imposed the death penalty on your own children."
Blair, who remained stone-faced, responded: "I did."
Still undecided are what will happen to Blair's two other children — the 8-year-old son and a 17-year-old daughter. Those children's fathers also fathered Stephen and Stoni Ann, respectively.
They are each trying to win back custody of their children — whom Blair had been taking care of — in court. A decision could be made later this month.

Yeah let's give her another chance to do it again.

I watched parts of the trial and the custody hearings vs the surviving kids fathers. This woman is evil in a way most people cannot begin to fathom. I mean, right out of one of the more disturbing episodes of Criminal Minds or a Thomas Harris novel. She not only admitted to torturing and killing her kids, she said she'd do it again. Not to mention her numerous, and lucid, courtroom rants. 

 

Michigan doesn't have the death penalty, though there are moves to get one. If anyone ever deserved it it's Michelle Blair.  Yeah, woodchipper.

 

Still, she'll likely get assigned to a SuperMax where she'll be locked down 23 hours a day. Otherwise the other women would, sooner or later, kill the 'baby killer.' They have short half lives in the general population.

Air drop her naked someplace really cold.

This truly evil ... monster ... does not deserve to breathe. This thing does not deserve to live after what it has done. No remorse, no pity, no regret, not even aware that what it did was wrong. "I would do it again".

 

Woodchipper. Slowly. Feet first.
