I read this news on fb. Our justice system sucks as far as I am concerned. May God hold the Waddell family in his arms. Please continue to pray for them.

Court Update:
Waddell’s Murderer, Nacole Bain, opted for the Plea Deal. She will enter the plea next week of, life with the possibility of parole. If she doesn’t revoke her plea within 10 days, she will go to prison and will serve a little over 38 years in before she will be eligible for Parole...
This has been a hell of a road to say the least. I hope and pray that all days of her undeserving life every single detail of the monstrous thing she done haunts her with every breath she takes. I hope as she lays her head down every night and closes her eyes that she visions Waddells lifeless body that she stuffed into a tote like he was Christmas storage replay over and over... I hope all the pain she has caused comes back to her and she has to feel it ten-fold in the most horrible way.
Addison is broken in a way that I know I can not fix. I have fought and tried with everything inside of me to do everything I could to try and “fix” the unfixable. I sit here tonight knowing that I don’t think his heart could have withstood a trial process bc reliving this with every detail being explained would shatter his heart even more. I will never forget sitting in that court room during the hearing that the Investigator basically recite his report of Nacole confessing so the DA could prove there was a crime, where it was committed and it was committed at the hands of Nacole Bain. His words painted a picture that can’t be erased and it literally broke my heart. There are still so many unanswered questions, things that doesn’t make sense, and pain that will never heal.
Everyone says now we can begin to heal bc technically it is “Over”... No more hearings or a trial to go through... But tonight I feel more empty and numb than ever as my mind races and I still don’t understand... She got to choose her own fate by taking the plea... She gets to live her life in prison and still talk to her kids and family, see pictures of them growing up, have visits with them, laugh and make memories... Before anyone says anything about life in Prison is hard you are barking up the wrong tree. Addison has worked in the prison system for well long enough and we know first hand how “prison life” is... She might be surrounded by walls and a fence but it is nothing compared to what she did to Add Waddell and everyone who loved him.
Thanks for all the continued prayers and support during all of this we appreciate y’all more than we can put into words. ??
 

So sad for the family, but I dont think any amount of punishment will take away the pain. I dont think prison is "hard" but I do think living with a crime like that is harder. I am actually pleased to hear she will serve 38 years, I have seen some convictions that are laughable. I expected worse. Prayers to his friends & family.

I still say bring back the hanging tree.....jmho

life = 60 years. murder is a half time offense meaning normally parole eligible after 30 years. she got more than is standard in a plea bargain case. prayers for healing and comfort for his family.

Prayers for you and the family. May the Lord wrap you in his arms and hold you close. 

Prayers for the family.  Such a tragedy.
