Prosecutors accused her and her older son, Paul, of torturing and starving Timothy, who weighed a mere sixty-nine pounds at the time of his death. On this episode of the Court TV Podcast, you’ll hear Shanda face an intense cross-examination, featuring many noteworthy moments, including when Shanda becomes violently ill on the stand after prosecutor Matt Roberts places a photo of an emaciated Timothy in front of her.
