Michelle Blair:  The Remorseless Baby Mama Killer

By Lynn A. Granata

"I don't regret none of this," Michelle Blair, 36, cried in court. (The Associated Press, 2015). "I don't feel no remorse for the death of those demons."

Who is this woman?  She is a baby mama from Detroit, Michigan who killed her son and daughter then placed their bodies horizontally together in a storage freezer. Stephen Berry, aged 9 and Stoni Blair, aged 13 were found dead by the police while they were at the apartment for an unrelated report. The police were there back in March 2015 to serve eviction papers to Blair because she was delinquent with her rent payments. Each child passed away, it was determined by the state coroner months apart in 2012 and 2013.

Blair described intentionally killing Stoni by punching her repeatedly, putting a bag on her head until she became unconscious, scalding her with hot water and hitting her on the head. (The Detroit Free Press, 2015).

"If I had a chance to do it again, I would," Blair said.  (The Free Press, 2015). Mental health professionals tested her ability to stand trial and found her to be competent. 

Stephen's death was accidental Blair said, although she admitted making him drink window cleaner, burning his genitals with hot water, choking him with a belt and placing a grocery bag over his head. (TV station KJBK  2015).

Both children didn't share the same father.  Stoni was a half sister to Stephen Berry.

A video of the Detroit Superior Court Room shows angry outbursts of Blair hollering obscenities and making violent gestures at her estranged husband when he came into the conference area and sat down near her.  Blair was so combative that court room bailiffs had to remove her a couple of times to the back room until she calmed down.

On Monday, Blair said that Stoni and Stephen had sexually abused a younger sibling.  (NBC News, 2015).

Thank God Michigan doesn't have the death penalty, Blair claims she would have accepted it even though in pleading guilty to first-degree murder, torture and child abuse. The crime carries a mandatory sentence of life without parole. She was sentenced to life imprisonment without parole on July 17, 2015.
