We Need to Forgive the College-Bound Mother Who Killed Her Child

Belinda Luscombe

Luscombe is an editor-at-large at TIME.

Michelle Jones is not like other PhD candidates rolling up to New York University this year. Firstly, she only got out of the joint two days before school started. Secondly, folks at Harvard are still arguing over whether they should have admitted her. And thirdly, when she was still a teenager, she killed her 4-year-old son and buried his body in the woods.

Perhaps, extenuating circumstances exist for the university to accept her.

Generally, incidents committed by a teenager are later reviewed in a compassionate manner; with specific relevance to the individual's age.

How many times you suspend members and bring them back. That's what we called a second chance. If this nah suit you, consider what D_G said above.
