"I forgive my mom for what she did..." daughter speaks as mom admits to poisoning family

Moments after a Springfield woman pleaded guilty Thursday morning to poisoning several family members, the only one that didn't die as a result stood up and quietly read a statement that she had prepared.

"I prefer to be a survivor than a victim," Sarah Staudte said. "I forgive my mom for what she did to me. But she not only took away my dad and brother, but she took away my lifestyle, livelihood and my independence."

It is very sad what she did to Sarah and her brother and dad. Sarah is a very forgiving person. imo

Springfield woman apologizes for helping mother poison family with antifreeze

A tearful apology and a formal sentencing Tuesday marked the end of one of the most unusual murder cases in recent Springfield history.

A mother and daughter who teamed up to poison three family members with antifreeze will now spend much, if not all, of their lives behind bars.
