Convicted today. But already in "A Bumpy Ride", page 291. Its Inconceivable!
DETROIT (AP) — A Detroit woman pleaded guilty Monday to killing two of her children and storing their bodies in a home freezer, telling a judge that she had no remorse for beating and suffocating them.
Mitchelle Blair, 36, has never challenged allegations that she killed her 13-year-old daughter and 9 year-old son. She pleaded guilty to first-degree murder without any deal with prosecutors — an extraordinary move — and said she would have accepted the death penalty if Michigan had it.
She was arrested in March, after deputies carrying out an eviction at her Detroit apartment found the bodies of her children in a deep freezer. She said she attacked the children months apart in 2012 and 2013.

Readers having fun!
In the past two days, two readers of Inconceivable! have stopped me on the street to tell me how much they enjoyed it. One said, "I've never read a book like this - it is wonderful, happy and sad and complex and simple all at the same time." The other asked where the non-fiction ends and the fiction begins. Writing is 1/3 pleasure 1/3 pain and 1/3 perseverance - the compliments encourage me to persevere.
For the rest of you, download from Amazon, BN or ITunes, or order soft-cover print from me here. The book cover is a link to your preferred vendor and here is the site:

Do new mothers kill their infants? It's Inconceivable!
HOUSTON (Reuters) - A Houston-area mother charged with two counts of manslaughter in the drowning deaths of her twin 15-month-old daughters was released on a $100,000 bond on Monday, police said.
Barbara Ramirez-Sifuentes, 21, was arrested on Sunday as the result of grand jury indictments last week. There was no lawyer listed on her arrest report.
Investigators in the Houston suburb of Pearland said Ramirez-Sifuentes called 911 on Feb. 17 to report the possible drowning of her daughters, Sabrina and Savannah Russo, while in a bathtub.
The girls were unresponsive when police arrived and the children were flown to a hospital.
One toddler died that day and the other was taken off life support less than a week later and died.
The Harris County Medical Examiner’s Office ruled both deaths homicides.

Ripped from the headlines, its Inconceivable!
Remind anyone of Dr. CC?
The government maintains Hofstetter was running several pain clinics, some strictly for cash, serving as many as 100 addicts a day. Others were described as legitimate operations that took insurance but referred people to facilities where prescriptions for oxycodone and other narcotics were written with no questions asked. One of them, the now-closed East Knoxville Healthcare Clinic, sits between a Waffle House and an adult bookstore.
