@@debidriscoll8108 , I agree and I don’t think she should have been allowed to say anything about Quintons remains being released!

Disappointed in this verdict. At least she has a chance at life, no matter how slim that chance might be. Quinton doesn't get a chance at life because his mother took it from him. She doesn't deserve perole. May she rot in jale and in hell there after.
Not a single tear for Quinton. Only for herself. She never deserved him. This prosecutor and judge were both amazing. So thankful for the officers that worked so hard to find Q.
58:24 As a community, we love Quinton and some of us dont even know him. We wanted JUSTICE for him, that is why Lielani's face was, "Splattered" all over the internet. Think of Quinton, his little body was splattered all in the landfill. Thank you, Prosecutor Tim Dean (Superman) and Team for being relentless and seeking justice for Quinton. Rest in Peace, Quinton Simon.
What does any of the past have to do with the MONSTROUS crime she committed against an innocent baby 😡?????? Let her cook, clean and help others in prison for the rest of her days. That precious baby boy, Quinton, does not have a chance to live his life, because of her actions. Death penalty or life without the possibility of parole! Period!
I can’t believe she said “ my son has gone thru enough, I want him home”. These words actually comes out her mouth knowing what she did to him. Bye Evil Leilani.
Well if my math is correct: Current age is 24 Sentence for LWP is 30 Additional 10 years consecutive Total 40 years before first parole Minus 2 years already served She will be 62.. Quinton will never see 6 let alone 62
I agree! She shouldn’t have the possibility of parole. Something tells me she won’t be a model prisoner so her chances for parole will be slim to none.
The problem is she has no remorse and takes no accountability and then her family is up there begging for leniency. It’s so disturbing and disrespectful towards that baby and it’s not just about leilani and quinton either, it’s about protecting society from evil and dangerous people.
Billy Jo your words mean nothing, you are the reason why this happened. You left that sweet baby Quinton alone with your your monster daughter who you knowingly knew she was dangerous and you had to regard for Quinton's life. I'm glad Leilani got life without parole but Billy Jo deserves punishment too imo.
I can’t believe her family think she’s innocent despite her ending her own child’s life. These poor kids never had a chance with this crazy family structure.
@@TruCrimeQueenbeyond gross. The aunt had me heated. She didn't even want a prison sentence. She wanted rehab. And the way that she kept talking aboutvyhe babysitters house. The people who babysat him cared for him more than that whole family. Just disgusting. My heart breaks for Quinton.
The grandmother should be under the prison along with the mother. I will never understand why she wasn't charged. All 3 children deserved so much better
I'm sorry, I know her family loves her but all their tears and concerns were for leilani only. Not one family member stood up for quinton! This family is trash and not very bright. Poor quinton didn't stand a chance in this family. I hope to God her mother does not ge custody of the other two children because she is just as responsible for what happened to quinton. And using drugs made her do it as an excuse is sickening. The only tears leilani and hee family gave are for a selfish murderous mother. Shame on this family that couldn't even be there for quinton even in death.
1:03:22 So far, I havent heard anyone be the voice for Quinton Simon!!! LE is his voice today??? Cause his "family" sure isnt! And why is Leilani full of tears today when someone says a nice word about her, but she sure didnt cry when her sons remains were shown on the big screen during trial!!! This is so disappointing and disturbing and disgusting!!! Lock her up for life! Bye!

What a stark picture. A thousand words could not paint the glaring opposing facts. Here is a small, defenseless child so worthy of love and parental care. Here is a woman consumed with the need for attention from men and her own instant gratification from drugs. The disgusting way she denigrated that little boy's very existence is heinous and if she had let him live, he would have had a rocky road to reclaim any semblance of self worth. She deserves to be cast away from society. It is poetic justice considering she cast away that child in the manner that she did.
The only bright spot about this crime, is that Quinton was face to face with JESUS at the moment he took his last breath.. He’s loved and has no more rejection, pain or tears forever!!!!!
She has to show some remorse for her crime to get any consideration for parole. She’ll have to long time to think about it. The evidence doesn’t lie. She knows what she did.
This sentence is APPALLING!!!! She should be put under the jail and never see the light of day. Hopefully the other inmates will learn of her murder of a child.

@@keelanhamel430 I don’t know. Look at Susan Smith. She’s doing fine in prison and she killed two babies however she was denied parole maybe this sick baby killer Leilani will be denied 20 times over making it a death sentence the same sentence she gave her son.
She should have been an LWOP. Why is she given a chance when that poor baby didn't. You got it wrong, judge! It's like Susan Smith. It's a waste of taxpayers' dollars for parole hearings.
That is so wrong. She gets to live a life after prison, but poor little Quentin does not. I thought this judge would be fair and she wasn’t fair for Quintin not Leilani. It’s amazing what you can do and get away with.
Just because she got sentenced with parole doesn't mean she will ever get out of prison. She will spend the next 30 years in prison before she is eligable for parole.
Life with the chance of parole does not guarantee she will be granted parole. She is only eligible for it; not guaranteed. She will have to go in front of the Parole Board every two years and prove that she should be released, if denied her 1st time after 30 years.
Should have been Life Without Parole. Tim Dean said it all! Sentence was not harsh enough. That said, she should never be paroled until she admits She killed Quinton.
She doesn't deserve parole. Quinton doesn't get a 2nd chance, SHE never have him a chance to grow up. It is disgusting she gets parole. Everything else should be consecutive not concurrent.
So she will have to do 40 years before she has the possibility of parole. She is 26 years old now , she will be in prison untill she is 66 years old . Or longer if she misbehaves.
Mr. Dee or Dean the prosecutor was very eloquent. Bringing up Dan Markel and, his belief as a lawyer was ironic because, he was murdered. Kudos to you sir ❤️
Not one member in her family spoke for little Quinton, only the babysitter's daughter spoke for him. That poor little boy must have felt like an outcast in that family. His own father never even had the balls to speak on behalf of him. Thank God he had the babysitter to at least feel a semblance of belonging and loved. Thank you to the young lady who got up there and humanised Quinton and also the prosecution who worked so hard for justice for our little man Quinton.
The remains should be released to the famly who loved him the most...the babysitter and her family. She threw him in the garbage but wants her baby "home"....sick.
Roll your eyes Lie-lani! Roll them to the back of your empty head!🙄😏This family tree is 🗑️. Every one of them is here for 'Poor Lie-lani' not Baby Quinton. The contempt this heffa had during the trial for people expressing love for Quinton is disgusting. Life without parole would have been better but after 40 years, the parole board will not let her out since she will never admit to this crime and her culpability💁.
Justice would be life without parole. BJH should be sitting right beside LS. BJH had custody of them babies and knew that her daughter wasn't allowed to have custody of them and she still chose to let her have them while she was out of town working. Them babies should have been first period over any job/anyone else. Jmo. Did anyone else notice how BJH'S brother in law looked po'd when BJH started talking? His looks was like just stop with your bs.
Don’t you think Quintin deserves a proper burial? If they were not released; he would sit at the medical examiner’s office. I wish someone other than her (who didn’t stand up for Quintin in life or death) but unfortunately that’s the only way to give him a proper burial. No justice was served at all. There’s no winning in this case.
Gosh I hope the other kids didn’t go to live with their grandmother. She doesn’t seem capable to help them through what they will go through a they grow up.
Personal actions tell a person’s attitude, then overall actions of Simon matter directly and indirectly! These family members are apart of her upbringing. Nobody argues childhood mistakes. Aunt reads a ridiculous note.
Where were those tears for Quinton? How does she have a say regarding his remains? While thousands were being spent to find him, her and her family were out drinking and having fun.
Billie Jo is a walking red flag. The codependency, enmeshment and trauma bonds run deep in her and Lie-lani’s relationship. SO unhealthy! I want her held responsible for Q too because she had custody and should’ve watched him better.
@courtTv.. I dfsagree with you. Her mother accepted legal responsibility of her grandchildren when they were taken from their mother. She should NOT have let her daughter around her children unattended.
Whenever parole rears its ugly head, maybe we should flood the parole board with letters. Because clearly her family will advocate for her release. Who will advocate for Quinton unless the public does? 😢
I agree with you… where is the biological father or his family or the boyfriend and babysitters that apparently LOVED Quinton?? I’m so upset that no one is there for Quinton except the State!! I watched Susan Smiths entire parole hearing-and there were MULTIPLE people at the parole hearing for the CHILDREN the mother murdered!! It’s been 30 years and the State has two or three people speak in behalf of the CHILDREN as well! She was NOT paroled!

Exactly…it’s all about her.
Why does she deserve parole if she won't even accept responsibility
She won't get parole . Don't worry.
Exactly
Well I think the point is that when she is up for parole she must accept responsibility to get out. Gives her a lot of time to think about that.
Most people don’t get parole the first time they go up either , plus she also has to follow all the rules in prison with no disciplinary write up’s etc … and if she’s denied parole she has to wait 5 years to go up for parole again in GA I believe.

@@keelanhamel430 That’s actually not true 70% of the people in prison our child killers in there still walking around
She should’ve got LIFE WITH OUT Parole. (It’s so sad)
She’s a young lady that has been convicted of murdering her innocent child!!! No!!!
Life WITHOUT parole is the ONLY JUSTICE FOR Quinton!!
She should have been an LWOP. Why is she given a chance when that poor baby didn't. You got it wrong, judge! It's like Susan Smith. It's a waste of taxpayers' dollars for parole hearings.
Her sentence doesn't matter, she is a child killer and in prison she is the bottom of the pack. She's gonna age 10 yrs in a yr from now on
That is so wrong. She gets to live a life after prison, but poor little Quentin does not. I thought this judge would be fair and she wasn’t fair for Quintin not Leilani. It’s amazing what you can do and get away with.
Just because she got sentenced with parole doesn't mean she will ever get out of prison. She will spend the next 30 years in prison before she is eligable for parole.
Life with the chance of parole does not guarantee she will be granted parole. She is only eligible for it; not guaranteed. She will have to go in front of the Parole Board every two years and prove that she should be released, if denied her 1st time after 30 years.
Should have been Life Without Parole. Tim Dean said it all! Sentence was not harsh enough. That said, she should never be paroled until she admits She killed Quinton.
That baby will never be able to enjoy life so why should she be able to enjoy life
Does crying work with Georgia jury/judge. I think it’s pathetic.
Life with the possibility of parole in Georgia is..they must serve the entire 30 years first
That plus 10..
40 in her case
She doesn't deserve parole. Quinton doesn't get a 2nd chance, SHE never have him a chance to grow up.
It is disgusting she gets parole. Everything else should be consecutive not concurrent.
So she will have to do 40 years before she has the possibility of parole. She is 26 years old now , she will be in prison untill she is 66 years old . Or longer if she misbehaves.
Hopefully her parole will be denied over and over.
So she'll have to serve out the 10 years first and then the life sentence will take effect? I've wondered how that works.
@@topsykretts7642 With a life sentence in Georgia , she must serve 30 full years. After that she will have to serve the 10 years.
@ sweet!
How long has she been locked up? That will count as time served. But yeah, definitely 60's.
1:17:35 Billie Jo has blood on her hands….
Lock her up for good. What a monster. Poor Quinton. I would have adopt that baby. 😢
Should never have been life with parole should of been life and that's it should really have been the death penalty,the judge really disappointed me
Mr. Dee or Dean the prosecutor was very eloquent. Bringing up Dan Markel and, his belief as a lawyer was ironic because, he was murdered. Kudos to you sir ❤️
Judge went easy on her. Family spoke all about her 🙄
Not one member in her family spoke for little Quinton, only the babysitter's daughter spoke for him. That poor little boy must have felt like an outcast in that family. His own father never even had the balls to speak on behalf of him. Thank God he had the babysitter to at least feel a semblance of belonging and loved. Thank you to the young lady who got up there and humanised Quinton and also the prosecution who worked so hard for justice for our little man Quinton.
The remains should be released to the famly who loved him the most...the babysitter and her family. She threw him in the garbage but wants her baby "home"....sick.
Whole life gone in the blink of an eye....
Roll your eyes Lie-lani! Roll them to the back of your empty head!🙄😏This family tree is 🗑️. Every one of them is here for 'Poor Lie-lani' not Baby Quinton. The contempt this heffa had during the trial for people expressing love for Quinton is disgusting. Life without parole would have been better but after 40 years, the parole board will not let her out since she will never admit to this crime and her culpability💁.
Billy Jo: me me me I I I
This family are 👺👺👺
Justice would be life without parole. BJH should be sitting right beside LS. BJH had custody of them babies and knew that her daughter wasn't allowed to have custody of them and she still chose to let her have them while she was out of town working. Them babies should have been first period over any job/anyone else. Jmo. Did anyone else notice how BJH'S brother in law looked po'd when BJH started talking? His looks was like just stop with your bs.
"I just want to have my baby back home 😭" Oh please. Just stop.
That beautiful little boy gone and what for 😢so many people out there would have loved the chance to have him in their lives
Oh wow such a martyr Leilani, allowing her murdered child’s remains to be released 😒
Don’t you think Quintin deserves a proper burial? If they were not released; he would sit at the medical examiner’s office. I wish someone other than her (who didn’t stand up for Quintin in life or death) but unfortunately that’s the only way to give him a proper burial. No justice was served at all. There’s no winning in this case.
Gosh I hope the other kids didn’t go to live with their grandmother. She doesn’t seem capable to help them through what they will go through a they grow up.
Billie Jo's statement felt more like it should have been a private conversation between the two of them
Personal actions tell a person’s attitude, then overall actions of Simon matter directly and indirectly! These family members are apart of her upbringing. Nobody argues childhood mistakes. Aunt reads a ridiculous note.
Two opportunities to defend herself and both times she denied giving testimony. Wow.
Wait so actually life with parole?
40 years to life
yes, that is just not okay. 22 month old. Shameful.
Praying that inmates serve further punishment to this disgusting monster.
Why eligible for parole ??
Great job prosecutor!!
She should have gotten life without parole🤬🤬that judge stokes was too easy on her!
Where were those tears for Quinton? How does she have a say regarding his remains? While thousands were being spent to find him, her and her family were out drinking and having fun.
She's so gross.
One life is gone. We don't need to completely destroy another. Mercy.
Billie Jo is a walking red flag. The codependency, enmeshment and trauma bonds run deep in her and Lie-lani’s relationship. SO unhealthy! I want her held responsible for Q too because she had custody and should’ve watched him better.
@courtTv.. I dfsagree with you. Her mother accepted legal responsibility of her grandchildren when they were taken from their mother. She should NOT have let her daughter around her children unattended.
Not impressed with this judge at all
This Judge is very kind and allowed cameras in the Courtroom...for that I'm greatful.
Whenever parole rears its ugly head, maybe we should flood the parole board with letters. Because clearly her family will advocate for her release. Who will advocate for Quinton unless the public does? 😢
I agree with you… where is the biological father or his family or the boyfriend and babysitters that apparently LOVED Quinton?? I’m so upset that no one is there for Quinton except the State!! I watched Susan Smiths entire parole hearing-and there were MULTIPLE people at the parole hearing for the CHILDREN the mother murdered!! It’s been 30 years and the State has two or three people speak in behalf of the CHILDREN as well! She was NOT paroled!
