For years, industrial sites that once fueled the city’s economy have sat idle and deteriorating in and around residential areas. Now, the brownfields are presenting an opportunity for residents to re-invent their neighborhoods.

I so agree with the last comment. Yes a tragedy did happen,but I do not believe that Mrs Polomaine is soley to blame. There is only speculation of her wrong doing. A few years ago there was a simular situation where a child actually died in the home of a babeysitter.This was the trial of Mrs Slattery, her sentence was not even near the years put before Mrs Polomaine. I have known Becky all of her life & believe in my heart that she is a great Mom and deserves to raise her children. Now we have before us a second tragedy, except now it involves 4 more children. I believe that the Gilberts know Becky is not an evil person. If they thought that,they never would have put their child in her care.This whole thing is such a loss to all involved.My prayers are for both families,especially the children. Forgivness is Godly and a beginning for healing. All in all, the sentence given is extream. Is there really any justice for sending a mother away from her children for that lenght of time? Becky has always been there for her children & took care of them as any good Mom would. She is NOT, nor will ever be, or has ever been a threat to her children. I pray for the DA who obviosly has a hardened heart.
