This one is in my neck of the woods. I'd say she deserves instant death but unfortunately she's already there, and more unfortunately she took 3 innocent children with her. Luckily the eldest boy was able to escape but I imagine he will be scarred for life over seeing this transpire. :(


The unhinged mother who drove her minivan off a Newburgh dock and into the Hudson River told her four children that she wasn't leaving this world alone.

"If I'm going to die, you're going to die with me," Lashanda Armstrong told the children before the vehicle sank to the bottom of the river just before 8 p.m. on Tuesday, the only surviving child told authorities.

Armstrong's 10-year-old son, Lashaun, escaped the doomed family minivan - opening a power window and swimming to safety in the two minutes it took for the vehicle to sink.

But as he wriggled out of the window, his mother snatched his pants leg. "I made a mistake," she said before finally releasing the boy, the child told authorities.

After swimming to shore, the dripping-wet Lashaun made it to the road, where he was picked up by Meave Ryan, a good Samaritan who took the boy to a nearby firehouse.http://www.nydailynews.com/news/ny_crime/2011/04/14/2011-04-14_youre_going_to_die_with_me.html
