Sheriff: 3 children drown as car goes in Ark. lake

Full story: The Associated Press

Three children died early Sunday morning when the car they were in drove straight into a man-made lake, authorities said. Arkansas State Police investigators and sheriff's deputies questioned the children's mother about what happened just after 3:30 a.m., when she apparently drove down an old state highway that dead-ends into the gunmetal blue waters of Brewer Lake. Conway County Sheriff Mike Smith declined to immediately identify the children, ages 2, 7 and 8, or their 26-year-old mother.

What is the matter with most of you? The lady just lost her 3 babies and people are saying horrible things. It was an accident that could of happened to anyone. Her crime is that she probably didn't have a sense of direction. She may of had a GPS with an outdated map that lead her toward the lake. She will suffer for the rest of her life. Why are people so eager to think the worst? Shame on you for jumping to conclusions.

This is so sad, my heart weeps for the family of these little boys. The only comfort can come from knowining that they are with our loving Lord and Savior.

Daily Horoscope for December 27

Taurus

Make a big effort to spend time with people you didn't see on Christmas Day, especially if they're older than you or are having a bad time at the moment. You're brimming over with compassion and empathy, which will be really appreciated by anyone who's on the receiving end of them. You're also in the mood to make allowances for people, and that will help enormously.
