    Warning signs, state-by-state child services information and a history of child welfare reforms.

(AP)  An Illinois woman faces at least 15 years in prison after pleading guilty to doping her 6-year-old twin girls with cough syrup and taking nude pictures of them with her boyfriend.

The 30-year-old mother pleaded guilty Wednesday in federal court in western Wisconsin to creating child pornography.

Her boyfriend, 37-year-old Roger Smith of Hollandale, pleaded guilty last month to sexually exploiting children. Both are due for sentencing in September.

U.S. District Judge Barbara Crabb ordered the mother, who is pregnant, placed at a federal Bureau of Prisons medical center until sentencing.

The twins have lived with their father since the couple divorced in October. The pictures were taken in November and February at the woman's home in west-central Illinois.

The Associated Press generally does not identify people who may be victims of sexual assault and naming the mother could reveal the girls' identities.

You have to have a license to drive a car. You have to have a license to fish. But anyone can have children. I''m for making people take some kind of test to see if they are competent to have children. This woman would have failed...and another one one the way. Nice!

I can tell you one thing - if that boyfriend ends up in the Pen, he''s sure to have a lot of mean boyfriends. I hope he isn''t able to sit down for the rest of his life. To do that to a child - there are no words to express the anger and disgust I feel for those "people."

Wouldn''t that make it that someone could identify the poor victims??? The AP is stupid when it comes to stuff like that. They shouldn''t have identified the mothers boyfriend either! That was just stupid. I''m sure anyone that lives near them would know who he was dating! It sad that there is evil people in this world!

This is another disgusting example of Breeding Without a Brain.

I chose not to have children but I will NEVER understand why people do such depraved things to their own flesh and blood.

Put them in prison and let Prison Justice take its natural course. Maybe we could prevent these sorts of things from happening in the future IF WE POSTED VIDEO FOOTAGE OF THESE ANIMALS GETTING WHAT THEY DESERVE IN THE PRISON YARD OR SHOWERS.

WHAT AN ******... did all this to please one man who isnt even related to these children.
beyond the law of this land, I WISH GOD''''S REVENGE ON HER EVERY DAY OF HER LIFE UNTIL SHE LEAVES THIS EARTH!

*** typical christian / republican answer! Does the bible tell you to wish god''s revenge on her every day of her life until she leaves the earth? Or would Jesus say to forgive??? hmmmm Typical christians like to use the bible when it suits their needs, but rearly does a christian say or do what Jesus preached! At the same time, I do hate what that mother and her live in boyfriend did, but it isn''t up to us! It is up to the justice system! Maybe if we would get rid of the people that would pay for such photos or movies, have them all castrated! Then no mother would be dumb enough to drug their 6 year old twins like that! Hate the sick people that would pay for that!

Another reason why the sancitity of marriage between a man and a woman is a must.

The sanctity of marriage has NOTHING to do with this crazy woman! Do you really think marriage prevents perversion? No WAY! How many times do you hear people say "he was a quiet man" or "she was so normal" because they went to PTA and baked class cookies? The ones who seem "too normal" are the ones who end up being the freaky ones!

I know about cases like these - the woman goes along with her guy''s sexual perversions in order to feel emotionally close to him. Sick and twisted. Reminder to all you dads out there that, if your daughter gets messed up by the way she was brought up, she''s going to end up like this mom - or worse.

15 years? What a joke. Should be life for both of them.

These are the kind of people that we should bring back penal colonies for, there has to be an island somewhere we can use.

The path of the righteous is beset on side by the tyranny and inequity of evil men. Blessed is he, in the name of good will and charity, shepherds the weak through the valley of darkness for truly he is his brother%u2019s keeper and the finder of lost children. I will strike down upon thee with great vengeance and furious anger those who attempt to exploit and poison my brother. You will know the name of the lord when I lay my vengeance upon thee.

Yeah, more from the, "I speak for everyone cause I''m on the side of the Lord" idiot. So ALL inmates should DIE?? There is no punishment in America, only death for anyone who screws up in any way, and if we''re lucky, they''l die...lets see, how did you put it..."slow, painful, horrible, unspeakable torture".

You are every bit as sick and warped as any p0rn user.

Welfare, food stamps, WIC, Medicaid, Section 8, etc have encouraged women to look at children as meal tickets. Child porn is just a way to make mo'' money.

I blame most of this on GW Bush.

If we had policies and a country that advanced the wherewithal of average Americans, instead of advancing the wherewithal of the already connected and wealthy, and squeezing most people, this stuff wouldn''t happen.

Does anyone get the point? All this is about is child abuse!! Plain and simple!!! She drugged her kids to make a porn film!! I hope she goes away for a very long time. Stuff like this makes my skin crawl!!

My comments are as follows:

1. This is another in a long line of sicko, parental abuse stories we see in the news! They just don''t stop, do they?!

2. Both these people better be psychologically evaluated!

3. I hope the state is now going to turn the kids over to the father or other suitable relative to act as guardian permanently. The same should apply to the unborn child once it is delivered.

4. Fifteen years is probably a pretty fair sentence considering what they did. Hopefully, they will serve most of it.

5. Notice this happened in the upper Mid-West, so there is no regional-dependent association when it comes to child abuse! Unfortunately, it happens everywhere!

The boyfriend will get his while he''s in prison. There''s just something about pedophiles that **** the other prisoners off. As for the mother, coat her with honey and bury her up to her neck in an ant hill. She is supposed to protect her kids!!!!!!!!!

Abort the fetus. Then remove her uterus. She won''t be needing it any more. Another idiot female who should never have had kids. Put her twin girls in the custody of a sane, mature & responsible relative.

My response:

1. I do believe ''cbs'' has a valid point. As times get tougher, as quality of life erodes, the chances of child abuse become more prevalent!

2. Placed in extremely difficult or life-threatening situations, a person''s character, often times erodes as well, and is not enough to stop the descent into degradation!

3. Therefore, we need government to function at as high a level as it can! As it''s bottoming out now, hopefully, it has no where to go but up---again, hopefully! If it is, this should ease the burden on the citizenry, and reduce the amount of these bizarre
cases!

the twins should be given to a nice loving childless couple or person who cant bare children. The fetus carrier should nerver see the outside world again in her life.The boyfriend should be sold to the highest bidder in prison.The proceeds should go to the twins.

Again, here we are with yet another child bearing female (i wont call her a mother) giving up her young to be abused. How many of these stories do we have to read. There is always a *** female in need of sexual pleasure from some man using her children in the process. Have mercy on us all. Do we have some kind of sexual addiction going on in this country that is driving our *** (female) to sacrifice our young and jeopardize the saftey of others by allowing scum such as this guy anywhere near poor innocents such as these?
