You know, I'm signed up for that.

And she accepted that plea deal.

And I do want to give credit to the attorney who actually handled this case.

I can't remember her name or else I would.

Because there's pressure at that office not to do things on these cases.

And maybe this case was handled different, Andrea, because of your podcast and because of the counterpressure that's out there.

Because I think that's the only thing that's going to make these cases be handled differently as long as the current leadership is in place there.

Again, there are attorneys there who will do their job.

It is a leadership issue at that DA's office, and that doesn't appear to be going away anytime soon.

CPS, the actions that she did to that child where she was found reasonable to believe, all of that would have been admissible in guilt innocence.

At trial, if the judge followed the law, you always have to throw that caveat in there, it would be admissible at trial because in Texas, any other child abuse is admissible in a child abuse trial, just in layman's terms.

So that would have all come in to play in this trial.

So all of that evidence of the previous stuff that she had done would have also been admissible, which would have helped show a pattern.

So they had a lot to work with in that respect.

But it was a difficult case.

And she pled guilty to the poisoning.

Now, they dismissed the, which I was fine with.

They dismissed the other two charges.

But she pled guilty to injury to a child's serious bodily injury, which is the highest charge.

She just checked today.
