The defense began its case by showing that Cruz’s late birth mother, Brenda Woodard, was a Fort Lauderdale prostitute who smoked crack cocaine and drank Colt 45 malt liquor and Cisco fortified wine during her pregnancy with him. It is unknown whether Cruz’s birth father was a customer or a rapist -- there was conflicting testimony on that -- but his identity is unknown and he was not part of Woodard’s life.
“Nickolas, I am sorry, but that’s how it was,” she said, peering over at the defense table. Cruz looked down. “She had an addiction. She always put that first,” Woodard said. Cruz nodded after she said she still loved her brothers.
Who gives a crap what his mom did ? I don’t - he killed innocent students - put him away for life w no parole in small cell and let him rot
🙄🙄🙄
So?
Clowns 🤡
That's no excuse. It maybe a factor but not everyone from an addicted parent goes out and shoots someone.
Why not just say mother. Birth mom, really?
And your point? Hundreds, if not thousands of drug addicted babies borne daily do not turn into this sort of monster. No excuse.
half the country does.
So. What. Excuses are boring.
Wrong is wrong. Murder is murder. There may be rational and tragic reasons for the tragedy but the system must uphold the law.
Every Trump kid can claim the same thing about their parents, and they turned out just...oh nevermind
So did my nephew yet he has a successful business.
So now that will be his defense? He f-ed up because he was a drug baby Perhaps that would be a great study for the AP to do. Follow up on drug babies to see how they've turned out. Then we can get rid of the idea of legalizing drugs.
So you agree? Addiction is a disease not a crime?
Seriously, AP?
so she be the one on trial for mass murder?!
Nobody cares …
Et tu AP?
Ok and
So!
Well, the ones he killed didn't but they the ones dead
So?
Thi is why birth control should be free to everyone.
It’s Florida they may make him a hero
And?... The interest of this?
And
If this shooter was Black, you think they would bother to give an excuse that his mum abused crack cocaine and drank alcohol?
So
Another saint....
When the shooter is a Muslim, the media never analyzes the mother's problems
damn he would've made a great abortion
So she was average.
Death penalty
Yeah, but did she buy him the gun?
She probably also didn't floss regularly. So what?
So what? Thousands of kids had the same history but did not became a killer, the issue is about how easy is to get a gun there.
So?
It is a shame babies in the womb go through this but there is so many of them and they don’t commit murder, he took 14 kids that will never have a life, that’s real sick.
Hard to believe anyone would think bad parenting wouldn’t permanently screw up children. Of course some young people survive and are able to lead successful lives but many end up in prison.
Not a good enough excuse!
So fucking what!?
Lots of kids have moms like this and they don’t shoot up schools. Kids born in the 70’s? Moms smoked and drank and partied
