Susan Smith’s jailhouse suitor says he fell in love with killer mom — but now wants nothing to do with her
Susan Smith, in prison for the 1994 murder of her two young sons, has a parole hearing in early November — but if her former husband has anything to do with it, she’ll remain in prison.
David Smith lost 3-year-old Michael and 14-month-old Alexander when his then-wife Susan drove them both into a lake while they were strapped into their car seats in 1994. She is up for parole later this year, and she’s told family members she believes she deserves to be released.After watching her sons slowly drown in John D. Long Lake in Union County, Smith then falsely told police that a black man had carjacked her and kidnapped the boys, leading to a manhunt in which authorities went door to door among local neighborhoods that were predominantly African American.
Her alleged motive: She was having an affair with a wealthy man who didn’t want children. The car was pulled from the water with the two boys still strapped in their seats.She was convicted of murder, but spared the death penalty and instead given life in prison with the possibility of parole after 30 years.
