Lifetime is at its best when doing true life crime movies. Here the events of the worst mother in the world unfold in a straightforward and mesmerizing manner. When the facts are interesting you don't need to mess about with the delivery. The court room scenes are quite powerful by Lifetime standards.
The cast is well chosen. Nia is good especially at the end. The girl who plays Ashley the victim / daughter performs well as a resentful teen then as a devastated daughter.
