So that's kind of the idea of like whether or not they're going to be released early.

Yeah.

Well, and as you said, this is an unusual case because of the custody situation, and there wasn't, you know, I think— Well, and the DA's office also had a lot to work with because the thing about Texas is that previous—

And I'm fine with that.

So she is currently in prison?

So since it's been recent, okay.

And I think, you know, it's certainly you and I have spent no small amount of time talking about this.

And certainly my observation of how these cases are treated in the media is such that, you know, you you wonder if this is.

a mom if she's sort of yeah sorry yeah i mean like if yeah if this is a if this is a sort of lovely presentable middle-aged white mom with a really fancy with a with a higher social status and a fancy attorney um is there any chance are they're getting she's getting 20 years in prison and i it seems unlikely

Yeah.

I mean, I think it's just, it's sort of fascinating to look at these cases and their different outcomes.

And yeah, I mean, I think, you know, it's not to take any credit away from your investigation or, you know, the DA's office doing the right thing or any of those things, which happened in this case and family members came forward and a lot of people did the right thing to protect this child.

And that's, that's, you know, that should be acknowledged.

And, um,

you know, the deciding factors of which offenders get a 20-year or plus sentence and which ones get a nice, you know, media write-up and maybe a Netflix film and a nice civil case against the doctor are not because of the abuse they subjected their child to and how severe it was, right?

Those are not actually determining factors in how these cases sort of get translated to the public imagination.

And usually get custody of their kids back, right?

Yeah, right.

Yeah, so people should – I know there's a lot of things to be outraged about in this world right now, but I think people walking around, for the most part, sort of don't know –

how many people get away with abusing and even murdering their children.
