    So now we have to support this sick lady in jail! Great to know where my tax dollars are going. Helping the worthless people out there in Jails and Prisions.

    My deepest sympathy to the family of Tristan and My prayers go out for them. As for the mother may God have mercy on your soul and I will pray for you as well, my son (10y/o) said you were a very very very sick woman and I cannot see how one could take their own childs life ~ so I pray you have time to find the Lord and repent, seek HIM and keep THE LORD with you for the rest of your life. In jail you will lose what’s left of your mind with out JESUS!!!!!

    To the family of Tristan Allegra;
    My sympathy, and prayers go out to each and every one of you. It’s hard enough to lose someone who is your age or older than yourselves, but when an innocent child dies, no matter what the cause is it’s is a devistation in itself. No amount of condollences can help. All we can do is pray for you.

    To “The Mother”
    I don’t know what was going through your mind. If you wanted to commit suicide and were so “Hell Bent” on self destruction, that’s one thing. You would have to answer to God for that. Now you have to answer to God for Trisyan. I was born in a smalll town in Italy almost 55 years ago. I thank my real mother every day for allowing me to live and to be adopted by a couple who could love me and treat me as if they had given birth to me. She could have very easily aborthed me or killed me later in life. Just because a woman brings a child into the world, it doesn’t mean they have “Carte Blanche” to take them out of this world if they so choose.

    How dare you attempt to cop such a bogus plea of severe depression and insanity. Let me clue you into a little secret. If you really wanted to committ suicide you would have already done it. “Aww look at poor little ole me”. You had a number of family members who would have gladly taken Tristan, dare I mention his FATHER. Or did you forget about him? You are nothing more than a manipulative lying selfish, inconsiderate bitch. I’m not accustom to using this kind of language on anyone but I am so infuriated by your callous and cruel act. No matter what punishment the court doles out to you now, the punishment you receive in death will be far greater. I only hope that they execute you the same way you chose to execute that sweet innocnt child, only just before you expire completely let you live and do it over again so you can experience his anguish, panic and fears just before he lay lifeless. May God have mercy and pitty on you because not many here have mercy on you.
