She was definitely into some pretty nasty drugs. She was definitely a slut. Worse, she definitely put her kid's life in danger. I don't care if she was the most loving parent in the world, you don't fucking do that. I can't have respect for someone who does that. In fact, you can't BE a loving parent if at any point you'd risk your child's life like that.
Maybe she was a good person outside of the media, but I have to say that I find it unlikely. More importantly, of the things I know about her that are fact, it would be pretty damn hard to make up for her mistakes no matter how good a person she might be (if indeed she is, which again I doubt).
Did she deserve to die? I don't think so, I don't think anyone deserves to die. But fuck this shit about how she was actually a good person, and how she actually loved/deserved her kid... she may not have deserved death, but hell if I'm gonna feel bad about it.
