Prison should not be an option for this lady. Capital punishment will do
Her plea deal made sure she’d avoid the capital punishment.
But even then, Pennsylvania currently has a moratorium on it. And she’d have to wait another 20-30 years anyway.
There are family members of Heather's victims who will make it a point to get locked up with her.
Monster
How do you sleep at night knowing you killed these people?🤷🏽♀️
But why? Why would she do such a thing?
Because she’s a psychopath….that’s why. 😶🌫️😶🌫️🫨🫨😬😬🥶🥶
Cause democrats allow me. Dems are the problem.
Psychopath
was it like the sniper who killed 100's because he racially didnt like his spotter, hmmmmmmmmmm, how do you ever always try and find excuses for yourselves, suffering of it, seen by everyone
The Lord?

Yes. God bless Pristee. Everyone makes mistakes and god with surely forgive you. There is a reason for everything and you sped of the process by helping patients.
You’re trying a little too hard, bub. 😅
Wow, the families abandoned their relatives in nursing homes and feel justified in calling this woman a monster.
So judgmental. As someone who worked in long term care before retirement most of the families who had loved ones there had to work full time. They couldn’t afford full time caregivers. There were even young people there, some there for many months recovering from car accidents or gunshot wounds. Their parents weren’t equipped to provide the care they needed and in NO way “abandoned” them. As a senior citizen myself I really HOPE to be able to leave this life from my own home. But if not I have told my “kids” that I not only do not expect them to be my caregivers, I do not WANT that. So unless you are a full time CG for someone please keep this disgusting thought to yourself. (I was SO lucky to be able to be my late husband’s CG. I can’t imagine how horrible it would’ve been if I had to work while he was on his death bed. People feel bad enough without people like you standing in judgement over them)
@@rl453 I'm the most judgmental person I know. I should be a judge. I notice that you did not waste a second before YOU judged ME.
You know as well as I do that a sizable portion of people in nursing homes are there because their families don't want the burden and inconvenience of caring for them themselves. In many other cultures, old people are revered and live with their families until death. And somehow, before the 60s, that was the pattern here in America as well. Too often nowadays, old people are tossed aside when they outlive their usefulness. Now that people often live longer than their ability to maintain a decent quality of life, I think it is appropriate to question the motives of people who dump their relatives in rest homes. You're correct - many children of seniors have no other options. Others shed their troublesome relations as easily as Kristi Noem gets rid of an uncooperative puppy.
@@davemathews7890 Having grown up in the 60s I can speak from experience. My mom was able to be the CG for my grandfather. Most men back then made enough to support their families on one income. My poor mom worked so hard physically but was able to do that. She passed when I was in my 20s so I wasn’t faced with that decision. And I did not judge YOU, I judged that awful comment you made. Your comment blanket judged an entire group of people without thought. As a retired nurse I will absolutely call this nurse’s actions monstrous. They were. These people were left in our care. I used to go home after my shifts & often have trouble sleeping, wondering if I’d forgotten something very important, especially when we were short handed or had several codes. In LTC they became almost like family to us. Even the “difficult” ones. I still have a couple scars from dementia patients who suddenly became aggressive out of nowhere. The next moment they’d be calling me mama. It was much more than just a job to me and to many of us. (Before you judge me for my lack of paragraphs, my device won’t allow me to use them here)
@@davemathews7890how do I let them know I'm a Democrat without saying Democrat. I'm just messing with you I'm independent and don't do either side. I don't care but some go out of there way to point out who they worship. I worship Jesus myself. Nothing else
THAT'S RIGHT! EVEN IF FAMILY DID ABANDONED THEM, (WHICH IS NOT GOOD AT ALL) THEY STILL DESERVE FOR GOD TO TAKE THEM HOME!! NOT MAN OR WOMAN. SOME SINS ARE NOT FORGIVEN!
That's what nursing homes do.When the patient runs out of money... When it costs more money to keep them alive than they receive..
💯 Facts and checked out centuries ago.. HAKUNA MATATA 👽😇🙂🙃🤫 Jesus Christ 🤫
This isn’t the nursing homes fault. She did this on her own!
@@larryl6279 That's fine but I'm telling you all how nursing homes work.
@@hakuna1392that’s a lie.
@@MiamiPush2theLimit I'm sorry it's not. I've seen first hand to many times...
