SFist Blotter

redemption.jpgWe're not really sure what to make of this news item, so we'll just give it to you straight. Turns out that skinny Teri Hatcher has revealed in this month's Vanity Fair that she gave anonymous testimony in a child molestation case in Sunnyvale that put her uncle in prison for 14 years on a plea bargain. Wow. Among other things, we had no idea Teri Hatcher was from the Bay Area. Here's some additional Merc News coverage of Hatcher's uncle's child molestation trial.

Remember the pregnant woman who stabbed her baby daddy in the stomach after he started bugging her about eating a candy bar? Sentenced to five years in prison. She's now 8 months pregnant, and said that she had been previously abused and that her boyfriend had said, "I hope you have a miscarriage" before she went at him.

And in our final entry in sad family news, the Susan Polk trial gets weirder and weirder, as the allegedly-schizophrenic defendant, defending herself in court against charges that she murdered her husband, squared off with her son in court. For example, Susan Polk asked her son, "why did your father say I was delusional?" The son replied, "Because you were acting that way... I saw your delusions myself." Susan Polk also spent some time trying to convince her son that his brother had been molested in satanic rituals. Sigh.

"I hope you have a miscarraige" is a pretty awful thing to say. But wouldn't the world be better off if this woman was not a parent? Maybe "I hope you are chemically sterilized" would be a more felicitous sentiment.
