That woman should be so ashamed of herself for driving a young impressionable teen to suicide. It is unfortunate that the laws are not specific enough to punish this woman for the crimes we all know, as parents, she is guilty of.

Her aborish behavior should not go unpunished. She should get the maximum as defined by law in this case. However, that is not justice! There is young girl here who will never be able express herself in anyway EVER! All this woman stands to lose is 3 years of her life and $300K.

I vote for public hanging to keep nosy people like this in check!

The jury didn't 'charge' her with three crimes, they convicted her. Charging is done by the prosecution. This is a small error, but a significant one for someone writing about a legal case.
 
[Jim thanks for the catch. Edited.]
