SUMMARY: Thirty years ago, Susan Smith drove her car into a lake with her young sons, Michael and Alexander, inside, initially falsely claiming she was carjacked. After a nine-day search, she was arrested, convicted, and sentenced to life in prison. In Union County, the tragedy still haunts residents, with many expressing a desire to move past the negative reputation associated with the case. Local residents like Jamie Strickland and Dennis Malbus reflect on their emotional memories and emphasize the community’s closeness and resilience. Smith will be eligible for parole in two years, with community members hoping for its denial.
