Woman sentenced to 2½ years for severely neglecting six children found in squalid conditions.

A 34-year-old woman in Dublin was sentenced to 2½ years in prison for severely neglecting her six children over four years, from 2016 to 2020. The children, aged 10 months to 8 years, were found in a filthy, freezing home and are now in foster care. Despite her pleas of guilt and mitigation, the judge ruled a prison sentence was necessary to punish her and deter others from neglecting children.
