Susan Smith, the South Carolina woman who infamously drowned her two young sons in 1994, faces a challenging road to parole following recent disciplinary issues in prison. The South Carolina Department of Probation, Parole and Pardon Services had scheduled a parole hearing for Smith on Nov. 20.
Smith, now 52, was convicted of communicating with a victim/witness of a crime, a violation of prison rules, after providing contact information to a documentary filmmaker in exchange for money. This incident, her first disciplinary action in a decade, has significantly jeopardized her chances of parole.
