Penny Boudreau
You know you are going to have a good day when you get to take a hot shower without anyone coming in and asking a question; filing a complaint or request; meowing, barking or squeaking at you (who left the damn rat out of his cage again?).
You get to drink an entire cup of HOT coffee and you manage to get everyone up, bathed, dressed, fed and out the door without any yelling, screaming, bickering, fighting, punching, kicking, crying, or complaining. The store has everything in stock that is on sale and you remember to use your coupons.
You finish everything that you need to do, including dinner, and still have 45 minutes before the masses return and you must put on your drill sergeants hat and begin the homework war. Ah, bliss.
Penny Boudreau, 33, was not having a good day, week or month. She was fighting with her pre-teen daughter constantly and her live-in boyfriend was getting tired of the daily screaming matches. He finally issued Penny an ultimatum, “her or me.” Penny, being the loving caring mother that she is, chose him.
Around 8:30 p.m. on January 27, 2008, Penny called the police to tell them that her 12-year old daughter was missing. She insinuated that the girl had run off after an argument. A massive search ensued as the weather in Nova Scotia was turning foul.
What investigators and searchers did not know at the time was that Penny had already murdered her daughter and dumped her body. She staged the scene to present itself as if 
Karissa had been sexually assaulted and then murdered. A 9-year old boy found Karissa’s frozen body sticking out of the snow on February 9, 2008.
The medical examiner had to wait for little Karissa’s body to thaw before beginning the autopsy. That autopsy showed that Karissa had been strangled, but no evidence of sexual assault was found.
The police immediately suspected Penny and her live-in boyfriend, Vernon Macumber of committing the murder. What they did next may boggle the mind, but the fact that both Penny and Vernon fell for the ruse dumbfounds you.
Undercover police officers portraying themselves as underworld crime syndicate members made contact with Macumber. They convinced him that they needed his services for certain jobs. Eventually, they convinced Macumber that they needed a female for a specific job and suggested his girlfriend Penny.
Penny was all to eager to participate in whatever the “crime syndicate” had in mind as long as they could help her out with her own little problem. She wanted the evidence locker where the evidence of her daughter’s murder was being kept to disappear. An officer, presenting himself as the chief gangster of this little crime organization assured her that they had the power to help her out, but she had to come clean with them about Karissa’s murder. Penny, being the card-carrying member of Mensa that she is, agreed.
She told “da boss” that she had murdered her daughter and that Macumber had no knowledge of the murder. She knew a few days in advance that she needed to kill Karissa. On the evening of January 27, 2008, she drove her daughter to an isolated area near Hebbville, (yup, you read that correctly, those wacky Canadians). She chased her daughter out of the car and tackled her to the ground.
Pinning her daughter to the cold ground with her knee in her chest, Penny wrapped some twine around her neck and began strangling her with all of her strength. She said that Karissa’s last words were “mommy don’t.” Penny told the officer that her daughter’s eyes were bulging, her tongue was sticking out and she was foaming at the mouth before she stopped breathing.
Once Penny saw that her daughter was dead, she placed Karissa back into her car and drove her body to the banks of the LeHave River. While dragging her body out of the car, Karissa’s jeans and underpants came off. Penny thought this was fortuitous, thinking that the police would think that Karissa was raped. She then pushed her body down the bank where it landed in some weeds. She did all this because she didn’t want Macumber to leave her.
She must have been stunned when the police came to arrest her and presented her with recordings of her statements to the crime boss. She thought she was gaining the trust of a Tony Soprano wanna-be instead of a police investigator. Penny Boudreau pled guilty to second degree murder.
On January 30, 2009, Penny was sentenced to life imprisonment with no possibility of parole for 20 years. Justice Margaret Stewart told Penny at her sentencing, “You can never call yourself mother in conjunction with Karissa’s name again. The words, ‘Mommy, don’t’ are there to haunt you for the rest of your life.”
Editor’s Note: And if you didn’t hate Penny Boudreau enough already, we have the obligatory, “Please bring my daughter home” press conference (Video courtesy of our sister blog, Eyes For Lies).
Penny is a real piece of work. She was married to a man named Paul Boudreau (Karissa’s Father), then cheated on him with his brother Shane Boudreau, and eventually ended up marrying him too. Then she left Shane for reasons unknown.

I’m with Blondie – I hope “Mommy, don’t” is the first thing she hears when she wakes up in the morning and the last thing she thinks about when she puts her head down at night, every single day for the rest of her miserable life.

This Cee U Next Tuesday has got to be the worst actrress in history!!! I feel like someone kicked me in the stomach. What a beautiful little girl and what a nasty, disgusting excuse for a human being let alone to have had the honor of being called mommy.
“mommy don’t”
can a young girl be hired to record these words repeatedly, then have it played on a loop in penny’s cell? can that be done? if not, then can someone do the same thing to penny that she did to her own daughter?
please?
I’ve always thought the same thing, but would it matter to these mothers that kill their children? I mean like Casey Anthony. Does it bother her to hear Caylee singing “You are my Sunshine.” I don’t think it would really matter to these things (not mothers).
A monster, so sick and awful. I hope Penny reads these and sees how many people hate her. I absolutely, positively HATE her so friggen much! I know that parents and kids get in fights but that was just terrible! I need to throw up. I know for sure Penny’s got a one way ticket to the darkest corner of Hell. There are no words for how much I hate Penny right now. Her daughter deserved better. Penny may have given birth to her but she was NOT her mother!
I’m physically ill after reading this. Seriously, I have a strong stomach for watching horror movies and reading scary books, but this is the truest form of evil = people. I have to go pet my cat and call my mother now. :(
The more I learn about humans, the more I like my pets. With the exception of the rat.
She looks tore back for thirty three. Damn, you can see that she would need to go to great lengths to keep a man-because clearly,she is no prize-but killing her daughter? That is beyond sickening.
That video was creepy. You can almost see that she is lying because of how she is holding her mouth and making strange and limited eye contact. Ugh, that woman is a good candidate for the doomy depths of hell. Hell? Yep, got my vote.
What a tore back pathetic bitch.
What a fucking piece of shit.
It sounds like there were plenty of relatives for this pretty young girl to stay with if her own mom wouldn’t care for her.
I guess that there was never going to be another man that would be willing to put his dick in that skank so she had to do what she had to do!
Makes me fucking want to puke.
Now that she killed her kid maybe a bunch of cons may want to….
Even before she became a killer, she looked like a trash magnet….
I’d need a number of Alabama Slammers before she’d look goof to me – also take my glasses away….. just in case I sober up a bit before she leaves!
Penny B., you are a MORON! The cops knew they could play this game with her because what fool would bury a body in snow?
WTF? BURY in snow? Unless it’s in the south pole it’s gonna melt, DUMB-ASS! Ha, the cops knew they were dealing with low IQ criminals. I’m so glad they didn’t get away with the crime.
Poor girl.
How absolutely despicable this woman is…..an pretty dumb as well…thankfully she will ROT IN JAIL!!
Oh God! his brought tears to my eyes. How does a mother do something like that?
Its bad enough that she didnt love her daughter, bad enoug that she chose a penis over her own child, bad enough that she murdered her but to dump her body the way she did, all exposed and undignified…thats just fucked up.
“Mommy dont….”
Ha, I like how you said that. She chose a penis over her own child! I’ve been on a rant lately about how some women seem to mindlessly submit to men. Why is that? In one sense it’s romantic for a woman to give herself “body and soul” but in another way it’s really screwed up. “I love him so I helped him dump the bodies in the river.”
Advice to women: don’t ever submit to men. We’re violent, stupid and egotistical.
I’m not one for quoting the bible, but maybe there’s something to the whole Adam and Eve story when God says “You will give birth in pain and be a total slave and servant to the man in your life.” (I THINK that’s how it goes! Ha, ha..)
how? how can you kill your own child? it’s just so… insane….
blech, i feel sick.
OH…
MY…
GOD!
The parent/teen struggle is so normal. Yes the teen is growing and wants their independence. Normal.
One day when the teen is an adult, some usually call that parent to thank them. I did. And I had a tremendous release then and bonded more with that parent. It was very emotional. As an adult I had a deeper understanding of what that parent was trying to do.
You know, Penny B. will never get that phone call.
Now that i am raising children of my own and experiencing the challenges of teenagers for the first time, i not only thank my mother for all the hard work she put into raising me, but im also always apologizing for being such a bratty kid.
..on that thought, i think ill go ring her now and thank her for never trading my life in for a penis.
Amy, Penny B. will never get that phone call. She will never experience the joy of hearing her daughter pay homage and respect. NEVER.
Funny thing is, if they both cooled down, ten plus years from now they would’ve looked back on these times with laughter.
Death is so final.
There is only one queen in the house that’s true but at the same time you don’t kill-off your heir, the one you pass your crown to.
this type of bitch makes me sick.
If she’d rather have the boyfriend rather than the daughter, maybe the father or uncle wanted the child?
Or was Penny afraid that if she sent the daughter to live with someone else would she have to pay child support?
If my daughter’s mother ever wants nothing to do with our daughter – fine with me – I don’t want her money as long as she stays out.
Bitches like Penny just make me go into the cellar and find my pipe wrenches – trust me – working for he gas company, a good pipe wrench changes peoples’s attitudes quickly….. A good pipe wrench would allow me to suffocate Penny, and also allow me to relieve the pressure as to prolong the ordeal, then allow me to reapply pressure as to notch it up again with little effort.
Many mother’s feel that the children are “theirs” and I have 2 problems with that
1. If the father is in the child’s life he is the other parent
2. A child is a human being, no human sould be owned by someone else
Penny appears to be one of those who feels that she owns the child, and is also one who is only sorry when caught. Penny neds to either be strangled or freeze to death and having had frost bite really bad, such a death is too good for her.
Thanks Blondie for another WTF moment.
You’re welcome. As a parent, I will be the first to admit that I have uttered the words “I’ll kill him” under my breath. Usually after I have received a call from the principal (I think I am on speed dial). But I do not think that there is anything that my kids could do that could make me not love them. Not like their actions or decisions, sure. Be so angry I cause myself to turn colors and have my eyeballs pop out? You bet. I am fortunate that I have a great husband who is a great father (although you could be a teeny bit more patient honey). But this piece of shit planned to kill her daughter. Somehow I believe that deep down it had nothing to do with the boyfriend. I think she just wanted the poor girl dead. And THAT is a sorry excuse for any human being. But for a mother? I cannot fathom it. I think Hell in any form would be too good for this despicable woman.
I agree. There were plenty of times I wanted to kick the shit out of them while they were teenagers, often involving the local police force, the truancy officers, property damage, drunken accidents, showing up high at school, etc. etc. But never, EVER, sat around and seriously plotted for one single moment how to kill them.
THAT kind of thinking was reserved for my ex-husbands.
But you could still “stand them” right Secretary?
Yeah, the kids are all in college. And I did finally overcome the urge to kill my exes.
Kids are easy to forgive, because they’re so dumb for so long. Husbands are a little harder because they knew exactly what they were doing.
The urge to kill your ex actually passes??? Damn…im still enjoying that ruthless feeling.
I now need to change my name! Thanks bitch. JUst so you know i was faced with this same type situation, and I told the SOB to start packing because anyone who doesn’t put their kids first isn’t worth the air they breath. And really, who would want to be with someone who will betray their own child, what do you think they will do to you? Take not of this women who date men that have children from previous relationships and don’t support them. It is just as bad as a woman choosing a man over a child.
She left a husband for his brother then left him, sooooo……..
Loyalty is not one of her qualities.
She does look bad…. for someone 15 years older than what she is…, so she may have been somewhat attractive to older men with lower standards…
She never got the memo that only white trash screws their husband’s other family members.
like she’d care to live up to some type of standards…
Also to have a relationship, it takes 2, so the brother is no prize either.. an affair or fling is one thing where one tries to answer a sexual curiosity, BUT to leave….. that’s like so wrong!
This was awful. The worst part for me was that not only did she murder her daughter but she was so ruthless that she stared into her eyes the whole time wishing for her to die. That is cold. I have a hard time looking into my son’s eyes after I have spanked him and he is crying.(and most of the time the tears are fake)
Different note: What does tore back mean?
Yeah Penny! I was like, don’t we have a PYSIH Penny here? You bet.
Yes tha’s why Penny B. is the bitch for sure but not our PYSIH Penny, yes.
Don’t change yer name, Penny. Penny B. should change her name to: Dumb-Ass
Uh-huh.
The video is repulsive. You’d think she would at least be able to squeeze a few tears out due to guilt if nothing else. How anyone can do something like this is beyond me. Is that the creepy boyfriend sitting next to her in the video? He looks like the crypt keeper.
Isn’t he a dream boat?
I hope I can find Vernons picture in “Teen-Beat”…I want to hang his centerfold above my bed…. GRRRRRRRRRRRRR he is seckzee
I hope she is finally in maximum security and the meanest chick in there suffocates Penny by sitting on her face, while she sings Bubbly (Karissa’s favorite song)
Over 130 votes and they all say yes? Out-fucking-standing. Fuck this heartless cunt. I hope this eats at her soul for the rest of her life. I have never felt as much hate for anyone as I do her Penny Boudreau after seeing the fake tears and sympathy she was asking for in that video.
Sick bitch! I hope she gets whats coming too her and soon. I have a 16 year old and she has never made me mad enough to hit her alone strangle her to death? she is a selfish cow who cares more about the man in her life than her own little girl… burn in hell!
The boyfriend shoud be charged as well just for being a worthless piece of crap!
I hope that anyone considering dating Good Ole’ Vernon in the future reads up on this–taking into consideration his ultimatums. What an imbecile, especially, if he can’t deal with typical teenage angst. I can’t see a child/teenager causing an adult enough difficulty to propose such an ultimatum to another adult.
First, if ANY man ever gave me the choice of “its your child/ren or me”. You can bet your ass I would choose my children without a millisecond of thought.
Second, the fact that he didn’t know about the murder is pure horseshit. What did he think that by some miracle the girl was just gone (maybe aliens abducted her…or she joined the circus) soon after he presented the mother–and I use the term loosely–with the choice? Bullshit.
Hopefully, this dimwit is single for the rest of his life, and his only companion is Rosy Palm. That way if he presents an ultimatum the worst that could happen is him cutting off his own hand.
How so very sad. Ive had a teen so out of control that eventually my partner couldnt take it and we had to end our relationship- its a horrible situation to be in…I really loved him, and truthfully I couldnt stand being around my kid either (he was terrible) but in the end I had to sacrifice my own happiness…I don’t know how she could kill her kid over it. Plus, here in Canada you can voluntarily sign your kids into foster care if you really really “want out”… theres no need to kill them. This woman was very foolish.
Sacrificed your happiness?
I dont know how a child could be so bad that a parent–any parent–wouldnt be happy just to have a healthy child.
Jesus christ–that post just made me puke a little bit; a parent is a parent in good times and bad. To say that you couldnt stand to be around your child is sad. I hope like hell your child doesnt end up like this girl. Im sure you know all about the Foster Care law in Canada, Im sure you looked into it–poor kid; imagine the complex he is going to have knowing he made his mom couldnt stand him, he made her miserable, and ran off her happiness/man.
Min_duhh, …come back and criticize me after you have been a parent for 18 years or so, because you obviously don’t have kids, or you would know that every parent of teenagers has moments when they “can’t stand” them. Yes, EVERY parent. You can still love your kid but hate their behavior and the chaos if causes. Most of us are not murderers though.
And yeah, I sacrificed my happiness. Why does that statement other you? Parents are people too, and giving birth doesnt turn you into some kind of saint who no longer has hopes, dreams, desires and relationships. And so as a parent you try to balance meeting your child’s needs and still meet your own too- both need to be met, or you end up a miserable soul…a happy parent is best able to make the child happy Sometimes it means making difficult choices. I chose to leave a partner whom I loved very much because he was just unable to deal with my teen.
Parenting is hard work. If you think its all about lollipops smiles, disneyland fantasies and rainbows you’re sadly mistaken.
I actually DO have children– and I cant imagine EVER saying I cant stand them. Sure, sometimes I dont like the THINGS they do..thats part of being a parent. Not being able to stand the THINGS your child does.
Believe me I know things aren’t always rainbows and disneyland adventures–but that’s besides the point. YOU said you couldn’t stand your child–then why did you have him? It is my belief that a child is a product of their enviornment. How they turn out is up to you; so maybe you had a part in your child’s obnoxious behavior–so part of the blame could be on you. I don’t have teenagers yet, but I have friends that do–I see how they are. They’re full of teenage angst and strife, they bicker and argue every point– so what. Its an age old knowledge that teenagers are buttholes; its a passing stage. When your teenager turns into a successful adult (if he does) then you have no right to share in his happiness–you cant stand him. Its one or the other. If your teenager turns into a bona fide loser; then you can take all the credit for that because of the complex you caused him to have.
For you to say that your child ran away your happiness (er, penis) is disgusting. If you measure happiness by how much weiner you get or don’t get, you dont have a reliable measure of happiness.
I agree with you on one point; child rearing is a balancing act. But the fact that you left your “mate” because he couldn’t tolerate your child means nothing and should be a mute point. You seem to want a pat on the back because you left him but why would you need an applause for that? It should have been second nature to tell him G’bye.
I don’t think being a parent requires you to be a saint or give up anything you want in your life–but you are supposed to try your damnedest to make your child feel appreciated and wanted NO MATTER WHAT THEY DO (least of all running off your lover).
I can honestly say I held my babies a little tighter after reading that post–just to make sure they know I love them and wouldnt give them back for a million billion trillion bucks–or a good lay.
Min_duhh…what makes you think it was “penis” I was after? My happiness had nothing to do with sex! No, its more like we were best friends AND we also have a child together. We had a life together and had been together for many years before the chaos tore us apart.
Why don’t you google “oppositional defiance disorder”? Oh but wait, you believe that kids are just a product of their ‘environment’, so if kids have problems its because the mom (or dad) are lousy parents??? Actually there’s alot of other variables involved…and sometimes so-called “bad” kids CAN come from so-called “good” homes. I wouldnt wish it on anyone, but sometimes I think people like you need a dose of it.
And you have no idea about the relationship I have with my now grown child… we are close because I am the ONE person who didnt give up on him, who loved him unconditionally through it all.
Ok. So a TEENAGER ran away not only your MAN but a man that is the father of another one of your children? WOW.Some role model for his child, his motto in life must be “when the going gets tough…get to runnin away!!”
I dont have to Google any kind of disorder; it seems like whenever a parent has a hard time of dealing with one of their children–they have some sort of disorder. I have certainly heard that enough.
I have a brother that was an absolute MONSTER when he was a teenager. The doctors diagnosed him with ADD and some other emotional something or rather…they wanted him on medication to which my dad said FUCK NO. “This is nothing that a good old fashioned ass beating wont take care of”, and I’ll tell you what as soon as he heard my dad say that he straightened his act up. My parents never hit us or anything of the such, but when the threat came up, I tell you what we shaped up. Yes maybe its bad to threaten violence, and yes maybe my parents were wrong–but they never said they regretted having us, they never said we were accidents, or they couldnt stand us. Not only did we know we were loved, but we were told and shown. We also understood that is we were threatened with a spanking, we had done something so unbelievably stupid we probably deserved it; we knew it wouldnt ever happen but that they had even contemplated it was enough to show us the errors of our ways. So yes, I still say a child is a product of his or her enviornment. Throw out all the excuses you want, but you bowed down to someone because they gave you a reason why your child was acting out instead of laying down your own law–in essence you allowed it to get to the point it did.
You have contradicted yourself a few times in your posts–one point for instance; You said- “truthfully I couldnt stand being around my kid either” yet then go on to say “And you have no idea about the relationship I have with my now grown child… we are close because I am the ONE person who didnt give up on him, who loved him unconditionally through it all.”–how did you finally learn to tolerate him? Did he receive some sort of monetary award or just become mute?
I think you remind me a great deal of Casey Anthony, thank goodness you raised your children years ago and didnt have her as a role model–imagine what you would have done had you had her actions to follow. She couldnt stand her kid either; and a man gave her an ultimatum…and we all know what she did.
You actually disgust me. I dont know why; I dont have any idea of who you are, but you do. Maybe not you–but the things you have said..I got an ill feeling just reading them.
Well said Min_Duhh. I concur. From “I can’t stand him” to “loved him unconditionally.” Too many contradictions. Something smells foul.
Oh and one more thing…”people like me”?
You haven’t the slightest idea what kind of person I am.
I am NOT the one who came here talking about how I couldn’t stand my child.
I am NOT the one expecting a pat on the back for leaving a man who couldn’t get along with my “evil” teenager.
Give me a dose of whatever reality you got; and I can guaran-friggin-tee you that I would come out smelling roses. I don’t care how bad a child is–I wouldn’t lower myself to your level and generate disgust for someone who looked to me for direction; which you so clearly failed to give.
So in closing, I would much rather be a “person like me” than be anywhere near a “person like you”.
And Blondie; I’m glad someone feels the same way I do about this “woman” and smelled the rancidness of the Bullsh*t she keeps spewing.
I could go on forever about this chic–the more I think about it the more angry I get. The more I have to say.
One last thing before I go do something productive–why is she defending the man that left her? How can he be such a good man if he left her and his child because of something another child did. I just cant wrap my feeble mind around it. I guess that’s where “people like me” differ from people like her, my kind of people aren’t fluent in DUMBASSCUNTlish
it is “people like you” who perpetuate the hate in the world…we are all one, brothers and sisters….im not better than you, nor are you better than me…. and as long as we continue to draw battle lines, holding some up on pedestals, and casting others to hell, the state of dysfunction will continue on this planet…we are the same sister
-we must be the change we wish to see in the world-…so with that i wish you and all your children and families a wonderful day….(here in my life, we are fine and working through all of the problems and barriers to love that existed in the past)
may you have peace
ps i wish the same peace, love and healing to all those affected by the penny boudreau tragedy, she is also our sister
(not sister in a ‘real life’ way, but as women and mothers we are all sisters) LOVE YOU!
What a load of shit. You have no idea what kind of person I am. If you are so high and mighty about “casting stones” then why are you here? For christ sake, the name of the site is PEOPLE YOU’LL SEE IN HELL–what else did you think would be going on here? Football scores? This site is basically a discussion forum–and everyone here has done something hellworthy. I don’t put myself on a pedestal to most people; however when it comes to someone who has taken away someone elses life–then yes, I am better. Especially parents/adults who kill children. They put themselves on a pedestal deciding they had the right to stay here on earth and the person they killed deserved to have their stay here taken away.
If you feel its wrong, then again I will ask why are you here?
You can twist your words and change your persona, but in my mind it isn’t going to change what you originally said.
I am at peace and I sleep just fine at night; so go preach to someone else.
That bitch Penny is not my “sister”, I would kick her child killing ass all the way to hell if I had my way.
Why dont you write her in prison, since you care so much? Dont tell me that cooz is anything near a “sister” to me just because I am a female. I resent that bigtime. She does, however, sound like she is a perfect “sister” for someone like yourself, who would bring a child into the world, skirt the responibility of raising him when times get tough because of the inconvenience they become when you are getting dick from someone other than their dad. Newsflash, the child has issues because of YOU.
No one needs to consider themselves “lucky” for having a stable home enviornment, it is something that you create for your children. It is something that is not easy sometimes to create, but caring, good parents do it. It has nothing to do with luck.
OMG – am I supposed to hold hands Penny and sing “Cum Bye Ya” around a bon fire while we make s’mores? She is NOT my sister. As far as I am concerned, she forfeited her rights as a human being the moment she wrapped the string around her daughter’s neck and watched as the life left her child’s eyes. Get a life! If you think I have put myself up on a pedestal, you are mistaken. I have worked hard my entire life for every single thing that I have ever accomplished. I obey God’s law and the laws of man. I try like hell to raise my kids to be good, kind, hard working individuals with a strong sense of morals, ethics and values. I insist that can think for themselves, even when they make a poor choice. I am not perfect, no mere mortal is. I make mistakes along with everyone else. And I try to learn from them. But of all of the things that I have ever done wrong in my life, I have never taken a human life. I have never once thought of any of my children as a mistake. I have never consciously hurt anyone with either words, actions or deeds. So don’t you dare put me in the same category as Penny.
Sorry for the typo’s, but that REALLY PISSED ME OFF!
Blondie, today was the first time I read this crazy lady’s rants. She thinks that by quoting Ghandi and delving out bullshit “sisterhood” antecdotes that it justifies the fact that she caused her child’s issues and, in essence, gave up on him to pursue the weiner? Then, she goes on to call busting your ass in a committed relationship with the children’s father in efforts to form a decent home “luck”? No, its called responsibility, owning up to your actions, and being a decent parent. Good god. If it were as simple as luck, how many lives would be easier. This lady is offensive and a fucktard.
I was also very irritated to be thrown into the same category as that whore Penny (how fitting, her name equals what she charges) So dont worry, typos are completely excusable when emotional over someone as ignorant as this woman obviously is.
Thanks Poptart. (equal to what she charges – LOL). The broad’s a nut. And you made me chuckle.
Amen.
thank you for your kind words of encouragement , i love you :)
Words of encouragement?
I must be missing something somewhere–someone please point me in the direction of encouraging words to this heathen.
sunshyne, you are a whack-o.
I am starting to believe that SHE is the reason the penis left here and not the teenager….
*her, not here.
Damn, would you blame the guy? It makes sense to me.
Ok, we obviously do not have a complete combo meal here. Somebody is missing the fries. Words of encouragement? For your children, yes. Run, don’t walk to the nearest therapy center. For you, nope not a one.
You my dear, are a selfish, narcissistic, bitter, hateful bitch. And before you even go there, yes I have children. Lots of children. And a couple of them are teenagers. Disliking their behavior and choices is par for the course. Our parents didn’t like our behavior or choices either. You were forced to choose between a man and your child…boo fucking hoo. Did you once ever stop to consider that maybe the dick wasn’t worth it? A REAL man would never, ever demand that a woman choose between him and her child. Ever. A real man understands the bond that exists between a mother and her child. A real man supports the mother because raising children is the most difficult, challenging and important job there is. Yes, a couple of my boys have the ability to drive me bonkers. They make poor choices. But they have an excellent role model as to what a real man is: their father. I pity your child. It appears that he does not stand a chance of figuring out what it takes to be a good, decent, caring, loving, hard working human being. He has no role models. What he has is a mother that would say the things that you did. His behavior reflects your behavior. Poor child.
So you feel a need to bash me. Fine. Maybe I deserve hell? Go ahead and judge me then.
Im so happy that your children have a wonderful role model. May your family continue to be blessed. Unfortunately my child’s father didn’t end up being that for him. I dont blame him, he has some serious health problems that present some huge challenges.
And as for the man that was unable to live with the chaos caused by my child….. I dont blame him. Hes a “REAL” man too, so dont you dare say he isnt. He grew up in an very violent and dysfunctional home ..and spent years in therapy working to overcome the effects of that. I commend him for his hard work. He never once became violent with me or my children….but my son was more that he could handle..and he was being pushed to the edge by his behavior, and he didnt want to hurt anyone. My son would have been a challenge for the most skilled parent to cope with, and was virtually a nightmare for someone less able to deal with it.
Consider yourself lucky that your family is “intact” so that you and your children dont have to face some of these struggles. Being torn between your spouse and your child(ren) is heart wrenching.
And FYI, Im not a bitch.
Who’s this fool claiming to be? Penny Boudreau? If you are Penny, fuck you you murdering bitch. Your man is a worthless pussy and any time he wants to show off how tough he is, let me know where he is and I’ll kick his worthless punk ass all the way to the US border. You. Penny, can rot in prison with the words “MOMMY DON’T” ringing in your murdering ears for the rest of you worthless life.
If you’re just some troll pretending to Penny, thanks for the opportunity to vent a little bit of what I was feeling about her out loud. It won’t make a difference now if it was a troll or not because I feel better. You did a true public service.
Holeeee crap try reading the whole thread there max the cat!! ..I am not penny, never claimed to be….im just someone who commented on the story and started getting slammed by min_duhh and blondie, because apparently im a selfish bitch
I finally figured out why your words irritated me so much. You remind me of my mother, or as I refer to her as the egg producer. She too couldn’t deal with us and sure as hell didn’t want to sacrifice her happiness. But she took it to the next level and abandoned us with my grandparents. It was the best thing she ever did. For the first time we knew unconditional love. We knew trust. We knew that love didn’t hurt with words or hands. After hearing that we were worthless, stupid, mistakes and “downers” we finally heard words like love, kindness, happiness. My grandparents and uncles taught us what love was. Thankfully, we responded. The point that I have been trying to make is that children are like little emotional vampires, they feed off of our emotions. If you think your child doesn’t know that you have these thoughts or feelings, you are mistaken. They give you what you give them. You give up on them, they will give up on you. If you don’t respect them, why should they respect you? Have I been blessed? You betcha! And I thank God every single day. Do I yell at my boys? Yes. Have I every uttered the words “I’ll kill him.” Yes. Have I sacrificed my happiness for my kids? No. I learned that once you have kids, you redefine your happiness. Have I sacrificed? Hell yes. Gladly. I would kill or die for each of them even on the days that I bang my head into the wall because of them. Because what they give me back is priceless. I wouldn’t trade the lot of them for anything.
Uh, yes, you are a bitch. A stupid bitch, too. Here’s an idea, why dont you try sending your own child to therapy, since it worked so well for your man and all. Maybe your child could work through the trauma which resulted in having been born to a nutcase like you.
Pathetic.
Just wanted to add my two cents. First, my 1st daughter, who is now 24, was such a pain that I couldnt stand her, I didnt stop loving her but parents are human too and teens can be extremely difficult to handle. They know all the right buttons to push and how to drive you crazy. Our relationship now is much better and I hope will continue to be. My 2nd daughter was much easier to deal with as a teen. All kids are different.
Second, I’ve learned not to be judgemental about other parents. When my kids were little, I could never have imagined how hard it could be to parent a teenager. I had no idea what was in store. Running away, not going to school, boys, smoking and drinking etc
Thankfully both my kids came thru alright in spite of or with my help. I did the best I could at that time.
One day you wake up and instead of your darling little girls, there are two strangers living in your house. Just coz you get fed up at times doesnt make you a bad parent.
I dont know about everyone else, but the comment that upset me the most from sunshyne was when she said she sacrificed her happiness for her daughter. We as parents ( well a lot of us anyway) make sacrifices everyday for our children. Thats what being a parent is about. I would sacrifice ANYTHING and EVERYTHING for my childrens happiness. But sunshyne made it sound like she deserved a medal for doing what each and every parent SHOULD do.
My son gave me shit for ages after my ex and i split. He’d called me a whore and a slut and every other name under the sun. He would hit me and his siblings and if i put him in his room he’d climb out the window and run off. But there never came a time when i ” couldnt stand him” anymore.
You dont just quit on your kids when it gets hard. You be consistant and loving but firm and if needed get professional help ( as i did) for yourself and your child. And you do it because there is just no other way. You dont just quit on your kids because it gets too hard. You certainly dont kill them and dump them in the snow without their underwear becasuse its just “too hard.”
yep i made a sacrifice…happened to mention it, not going to hide it …never asked for a medal…..was simply honest about how i felt about it….yeah my heart was torn in two, and i chose my child because that was the ‘right’ thing to do….was i happy about it? no …im not sure how having to leaving my spouse was supposed to make me happy
….honestly i wished my partner could have been able to handle my teen better, and also that my teenager had a better handle on himself too, because yes, he was acting like as asshole back then, (i wasnt the only one who “couldnt stand” him)….. but yeah i chose to stick with my son, because i had a moral, legal, emotional and spiritual obligation to him………and why the ‘hell’ some of you feel the need to slam me for my honesty is beyond me
……. maybe its the nature of this site……looking down on other people, judging them, slapping a big “evil hellbound” sticker on their foreheads….maybe it helps some of you feel better about yourselves, knowing youre “not THAT bad”, that you’re somehow “better”…… when really, we are all the same…… and we collectively create this world, and the hell in it…and the only way its ever going to get better is we stop putting other people down and just love them more
…and all these people in the pysih stories are the ones that need your love and prayers the most…so instead of wishing them more of hell (they are already there) why not wish them light?
namaste
I dont think that my comment could in any way be classed as “slamming” you. I voiced an opinion just as you did.
As for my prayers, id rather save them for the victims in the stories here on pysih…
I actually dont see how you can relate to this woman in any way. Unless of course at some stage killing your son was an option. And i dont think it was. So why the sympathy for a woman who killed her own child? I honestly dont get where your coming from in sympathizing with this woman.
Ok, everyone without any sin, step forward. No one? Anyone want to throw the first stone? Ok, I’ll do it. I WILL not feel any sympathy for any human being who executes a child, especially their own child, and I have a definite problem even referring to your new BFF Penny as a human being. Period. I am appalled that this woman could not receive the death penalty. She sat on her daughter’s chest with string wrapped around her throat and watched the life leave her child’s eyes. She admitted that her daughters eyes bulged and she foamed at the mouth as she lay dying. Do you have any idea of how much strength and determination it takes to strangle another human being? And to do that to your own child? You want a fucking medal for making a sacrifice for your child. Fine, go down to the store and pay the $2 and buy yourself one. You will not be awarded one here. Making sacrifice is the very definition of being a parent.
Sunshyne:
You know, my mom once got dumped by her trailer park boyfriend who used to kick my ass because I “provoked” him somehow. (Of course, I was eight years old, and I’m kind of confused how an eight year old can provoke a mid-40s adult to beat them black and blue but hey, my child’s still young, right?).
Anyhow, after Mr. Trailer Park dumped her, the wench had the nerve to BLAME ME for him breaking up with her! Sound Familiar? It should! I’m positive it caused me all sorts of nice mental and emotional scars, enough so that I still remember her stupid comment nearly 20 years down the line. Funny how that goes isn’t it?
Oh yeah..she was a bitch too….
and please, get over yourself. Perhaps get your xanax script decreased somewhat… might make you a little more human.
This Sunshyne person is a perfect example of what’s wrong in our society. First she pops out a kid that she is clearly not capable of raising correctly. Then she allows him to grow up with so little guidance that he is uncontrollable. Then she blames it on some invisible “disorder” (God forbid she actually take any responsibility for it). Then, she finds a new man and pops out another kid. When new man gets tired of it, she blames the kid who SHE fucked up to begin with. And THEN (the cherry on top) she bloviates about what a good mom she is for putting her kid first, all the while fishing for sympathy about her “sacrifices”. No – ok here is the real cherry on top – when other people point out the reality of her situation, she starts blaming THEM for not understanding her and being judgmental.
It gives me a giant freaking headache.
That scumbag is just as sick as Gertrude Baniszewski.
I just have to comment on the local cops. Do you think they just sat around in the station house chatting over donuts and coffee, and came up with this unbelievable plan, to get this idiot to believe that a “crime syndicate” wanted them both for hit men?
I can just see them laughing like hell, betting each other that these two were stupid enough to go along with this. I hope someone in the station house won free coffee for this.
Honey, if I could afford it, I would send them all a year supply of donuts and coffee. PLUS the entire Soprano’s series so they can all chuckle over the gullibility of these boneheads. These men and women earned it.
(I’m super-late in the game to this article, I just found it)
And this is going to sound AWFUL, but -
I’m in Nova Scotia, and the fact that anyone this side of Canada could come up with something so clever and so hilarious IS BOGGLING MY MIND. Stereotyping my own kind as somewhat simple? Perhaps, but that’s what I’ve grown up around and have seen my whole life.
That being said, I was so, so impressed by their little scheme – and even more impressed by how well it worked!
When I read stories like this I’m fascinated by what’s going on inside of a person’s head. Did the mother ever have any semblance of a moral compass? Did she have pets that she randomly killed because the good vs. evil part of her brain was broken from the start?
I’m Canadian – and ashamed. This criminal needs to be bludgeoned – too bad we don’t have the death penalty. In Canada, the average person needs to earn $50K a year to live as well as a convict does – she will never be worried about a bed to sleep in, her next hot meal, or the opportunity for an education. The Canadian prison system is a joke – anyone interested read up on a woman named Karla Homolka – and prepare to be angry.
Isnt that the lady who planned the rape on her sister with her boyfriend and then killed her?
Yeah, that is a fucked up case. Her and her husband killed a bunch of young girls, including Karla’s younger sister. They tortured and raped them on videotape.
Karla, the bitch rapist whore is now a free woman with a brand new family, living with a new identity somewhere in Canada. She claimed she was forced into the torture/rape/killings by her husband. She lured them, actively participated, and still escaped prison. On tape, she appeared to be enjoying her and her husbands sadistic acts. There is no way she should be a free woman, but she is. I am not saying the US is perfect, but that case made me really sick about the judicial system in Canada.
Karla Homolka is another country’s problem, she was able to move out of Canada (I think it was to the Caribbean) with her son and the poor kid’s father.
And let’s not forget the movie with Laura Prepon, “Karla” that painted that bitch it a totally sympathetic light, and basically absolved her of all blame, and made her out to be a victim of her husband entirely… one of the best renters at the video store I work at, and people bring it back going, “Oh! It was so good! I never knew all that!” Fucking morons. She’s a piece of shit, plain and simple.
I know the story about Karla Holmolka. Really sick! This scumbag belongs in Hell. Canada’s justice system too lenient.
Holy shit – Mommy Don’t?? What an unbelievable bastard. My mother is a nutjob and I no longer speak to her, but I doubt she would ever actually strangle me. And we fought like cats and dogs growing up.
Wow. Just wow. I read this site often and applaud all of you (writers, site runners) for what you do. I always feel Incredibly grateful and happy for my peaceful little life after reading the stories posted, and usually feel grateful in general.
I have to go bear hug my two cats now.
Hugs to all the good decent people here!
Ah, fuck it. Why not just get things done with and chase her skinny arse out of a car in a remote area and strangle her? She is such a brainiac that she’s already admitted to what she did. Hell, in my court she would be dead by now instead of breathing in precious oxygen.
after the jeans of karissa was broken and exposed her butt, the alibi of karissa got raped could be made. i agree with paul boudreau what did he say, “crocodile tears” and ” justice has been served’.
penny is a selfish BITCH. send her to jail NOW!
let me told you what did this selfish BITCH wanted to do.
after the jeans of karissa was broken and exposed her butt, the alibi of karissa got raped could be made. i agree with paul boudreau what did he say, “crocodile tears” and ”. well, send her to gaol, and further, the HELL, NOW!

Oh god, LOL. I knew this nasty bitch reminded me of someone. It’s the landlady from “Kingpin”! I didnt know she had a daughter….
f*ck this bitch. I am sorry for the profanity, but thats how I feel. This “woman” doesn’t deserve her female organs, or life for that matter (IMO)…
BTW, when i say life, i mean a life, not life in prison,,, this bitch should be dead or in jail forever… thanks
Punishment should fit the crime.
well. the hell will be absolutely fit for her.
Just to those who are in Penny’s province, we know the real deal of how her mind worked. Her boyfriend didn’t feel like marrying the old piece of shit and hey, he had a really convenient excuse — sorry Penny, but can’t do it, ya know, ya got a child and all. I can’t handle all that “family” type stuff, so I’d marry ya, but….
And of course, what the turd really meant was, I don’t want to ever marry you, but I”ll use whatever excuse I can and your daughter is a good enough excuse right now, because she’s not going anywhere, so I’m safe.
That is why, when the cops were taping their conversations, they heard him going apeshit, saying things like, “Why did you do it Penny? Do you realize what you’ve done? You’ve really screwed things up and involved me in this..” and that’s when the cops knew they had the dumb piece of crap. I’m so glad that they did the sting on her and that it worked.
Stupid is as stupid does.
I’m from Bridgewater and reading this still shakes me up. I go to school about 6 hours away. When I tell people where I’m from, they still mention the murder. Whenever I walk by the places mentioned in the article, I think of what happened. Some of these places, I see every day when I’m home. Rot in hell Penny.
Penny Boudreau was featured on ‘Deadly Women’ last night and I felt physically ill when I heard the story, especially when I heard the actress repeating Karissa’s final words, ‘Mommy, don’t’. To sit on your twelve year old daughter and strangle her to death while she’s begging for her life just because your POS boyfriend didn’t want to deal with a twelve year old is beyond my comprehension. She deserves to rot in hell next to Susan Smith
I just watched this case featured on ‘Deadly Women.’ Yes, it’s one of the most despicable crimes I’ve ever heard of. I noticed Penny said in the press conference someting to the effect of “There’s nothing that can be done to make this any better.” That’s a big red flag, and I bet the police noticed it at the time. Heck yes, there is something obvious that can ‘make it better,’ and that is for Karissa to come home – that is, unless you already know that she is dead.
I’ve done thousands of psychological evaluations on women in prison, but this ‘lady’ takes the cake.
My “mother” chose her boyfriend over me when I was about 10 years old. He was really abusive to both of us but I was lucky because after a year or so of his shit, I ran away from home and my grandparents took me in. It was really weird, she never really looked after me properly but in some ways she was really overprotective of me. She could have come with me because it was my maternal grandparents I moved in with but she just couldn’t seem to leave him. She ended up having another kid with him and she was still with him as recently as 4 years ago, which is when I finally got the courage to cut her out of my life completely.
I know he carried on being abusive to her because I kept in touch with her over the years (mainly because when I was a teen she made me feel as guilty as sin for “leaving” her). After my gran died, my grandfather got lung cancer and I was looking after him on my own. After he got the diagnosis I tried to be more civil with her so that he’d have a bit more family around him and she offered to help so I took him to hers for Christmas. He ended up having to go into hospital on Christmas Day and my mum’s boyfriend started having a go at me on the phone in the hospital, telling me i was an idiot if I took him back to our house and being a total douche when I had the cheek to not let him control me. Which is how he always was.
My mum was pretty heartless even without him, though. She offered to help me sort through grandad’s stuff after he died and she turned up, took my gran’s engagement and wedding rings and then left. Literally just like that.
I’m sorry to vent but this story just reminded me of how I used to wish I was dead when I lived with my mum and him and how bad I feel now because that poor little girl really did lose her life. I’m only starting to even vaguely consider having kids of my own at some point (I used to say I’d happily be spayed but I guess my hormones are finally kicking in now I’m in my mid-twenties) but it fucking terrifies me, tbh. I know I’d never do ANYTHING to hurt a child, no matter whose child it is, but I’ve made so many mistakes in my life where I believed I was doing the right thing (ruining my grandad’s last days by getting my bloody mother involved in our lives again, for one thing) that I just don’t think I can handle it.
Sorry, this is probably a totally inappropriate place to be saying all this shit but seriously, any woman who chooses a man over her own child needs shooting. If you’re not 110% commited to your own children, then don’t fucking have any!
Also, it’s a shame stupidity isn’t one of the sins because it’d be quite a popular category for people as dumb as this skank.
I feel sooo sorry for Penny. Sike!!!! U LOW LIFE COLD-BLOODED PIECE OF SHIT. UR THE MOST DISGUSTING MOST DESCPICABLE EXCUSE FOR A MOTHER U, DIANE DOWNS, AND ALL THOSE OTHER COLD-HEARTIED BITCHES THAT KILL THEIR OWN FUCKIN CHILD!!! THEN U FUCKING DEFILED HER…. YOUR OWN DAUGHTER. AND WAT MAKES ME LAUGH IS DAT U WERE TOO DAMN STUPID TO STAY QUIET ABOUT IT U WITCH. HOW BOUT I COME OVA DERE AND STRANGLE UR ASS. R.I.P. KARRISA!!! SRRY IF I SPELLED UR NAME WRONG BABI GURL
Wat makes me really sad and sick to my stomach is that sshe killed her own daughter to keep a man.
lol @ her teeth :)
OMG! this made me sick! Why did she had to kill her? in the worst case she could give her on adoption or something but to kill ur own daughter becouse of a boyfriend…..o.o this made me cry… poor little girl…penny u stupid bitch,no comment
What the hell does that mean?
By the way, this sickened me to the max…..awful.
