Fine, I can see what you mean if there is not enough evidence to convict her for murder of her child. I agree with innocent until proven guilty beyond a reasonable doubt.
But I don't get how she was not found guilty of child neglect/abuse for not reporting her missing child for 30 fucking days. Thats some BS!
