I think we all should pray and I agree nobody knows the rest of the story as to what happened that night.I am praying for these families and feel just awful for the children who have nopt only lost their father but, their mother as well.Let God be the Judge because, he sees all. I pray the best for all involved.This is juat too impossibly horrible.
I grew up with sabrina too. It was very hard for her to tell the truth even when the truth fit better. i feel terrible for her family,children and the victim's family. it's really sad that she has ruined so many people's lives. I hope if she did do this then she gets what she deserves. why would her story change 3 times? everyone is like "poor sabrina" cmon, look at her children, her dead husband's family, and her family. don't make her the victim here. if he was abusive then why stay in it for 13 years. women can be just as abusive and manipulative.
Calm down everyone the guys parents dont even think she did it on purpose and i hear they r testifying in her defense.
