I just saw this on Facebook, where I get all my news... Such a shame. She played at the local fair here about five years ago, I missed her due to a family obligation.

She has 2, a 6 year old and a 10 month old. The father of the youngest killed himself last month, although there was speculation he may have been murdered. She also shot her dog as well, which is disgusting and uncalled for. Damn shame she couldn't get her act together for the sake of her kids. Total waste.

They were in foster care. They were taken away from her after her BF killed himself because she started drinking and using drugs again. She spent a whole 2 days in rehab and was just released because they found nothing to be wrong with her. Good call, rehab people :rolleyes:. Let's be glad her kids weren't there, but the dog thing really bothers me a lot.

I heard about this last night, but I am not at all surprised. She has been having serious problems for years now. She's been in & out of rehab several times. The death of her boyfriend is very suspect as to what really happened, but she was there at the time. I bet they were investigating her. The guy was about to leave her & had a new girlfriend. It's very sad for her family, especially the children.
RIP Mindy.

what she did was very selfish. Maybe those children are better off with out her if she couldnt get her act together and fly right. But they will live with the stigma of what she did and who she was
She did not think of those kids and why on gods green earth take a helpless 4 legged baby with you.

I'm afraid I didn't know of her, but I read the story yesterday and it broke my heart. Very, very sad. I hope she is at peace now.

I think her mother had custody of her children, at least she did at one time, but I'm not really sure if she has them now, but probably.
She had suffered from depression for a very long time & attempted suicide twice before. I wonder how they released her into a home with a gun in it?
Overall a very sad story. Many of her friends said they weren't surprised.
