Dr. Phil was part of the brutal Florida beating case even before his famewhore PA butted in.
She can't speak now -- thanks to that darn "exclusivity" -- but check out Mary Nichols quoting the good doctor the morning before Phil's rogue production assistant bailed her granddaughter Mercades out of jail.
1. What a complete and total moron this lady is. You don't need to look to Jesus, you need to take a look at yourself lady. There is a common theme here and it's called a total lack of moral character, horrible parenting and a complete lack of education.

2. OMG....Puleeeeze....Find out what's going on in their lives and in the lives of the adults around them..therein lies the answer. How could Jesus possibly move through these children when they are so polluted with garbage on the inside? Where's Tom Cruise when you need him? or screw Tom!!! Where's Bill Jack!!!!?

3. I can't view the video, but just by the woman's face, I can tell shes typical southern baptist trash.
The parents should be held responsible for all these kids, bottom line. Where were they??
There is no God or saviour that can save these kids but a nice big swift kick in the arse.
Seriously, where's the bleach in the gene pool?

5. This granny is upset for all the wrong reasons. There are no redeeming qualities on your granddaughter or the other 7 involved in this crime
First she must have raised her child with no values who in turn raised one of these 8 teens (who belong in jail) with no values.
I do believe all 8 should be prosecuted not only for the assault on this teen, but also on kidnapping as they help her against her will.

6. I'm sure that's exactly why Dr. Phil wanted these girls on his show, to ask them WHAT IN THE WORLD WERE THEY THINKING?!? I really wanted to see them on his show for that very reason. But now, because of that darn PA guy, it will never happened. Dr. Phil didn't get involved to help the girls, he got involved to ask them what on earth would make them do such a crime? I don't see anything wrong or exploiting about that.

7. No, she is the one that needs to get Jesus in her life. Where the hell was she during this child's upbringing? Now, after the kid has beat the hell out of another she decide's the teen needs Jesus?! Give me a _________break! This whole story just infuriates me!

8. I think they need more than a "good sit down and talkin to."

9. obssessa, i am not trash. I am southern, and baptist. Please dont put us all in one category because you had a bad experience with someone who was southern and baptist. sterotyping doesnt get you anywhere and just shows lack of education and intelligence. bad eggs are bad eggs and these kids are plain ROTTEN no matter where they come from or where thier parents come from. It is lack of involvement in parenting. Religion shouldnt be bashed. This woman could be catholic, episcopalian, presbytarian or unitarian. Those kids were just plain out of their heads and deserve whatever punishment is given. this mantalityhppens al over the country. people do go to church in the north too just ask OBAMA.

13. Are you serious? He pays the ringleaders bail while the victim they videotaped to put on MySpace recovers from her injuries? Morally it's worse! He wanted to put the thugs front and center on TV for money!
Isn't it just a bit odd that the only person talking to the media quotes Dr Phil and then miraculously gets their kid bailed out by him? I've gotta give it to Granny she did what she had to do for her baby.
Probably went down something like this:
"Tell her I'll bail her out for a soundbite if she appears on the show. Just keep it on the DL."

14. You want to know what they were thinking? Are you out of your mind? They were thinking that they could get away with this because ignorant hicks like you think their punishment should be to answer a few question and find Jesus. They should be locked up like the animals that they are. Have you ever heard of consequences? Do you seriously think that if they got off they wouldn't try to get away with something like this again? They should get a choice, either be locked up in jail or locked up in a room one at a time with 6 people punching them. AND RECORDING IT!!! Good God, they aren't just evil, they're idiots on top of it. Recording it...unbelievable. Three words for these girls and the "lookouts"...EVIL, IDIOTS, and COWARDS! Six on one...you people raised some real winners. If my child ever participated in something like that, I would still love her and I would visit her in jail...right where she belonged if she did that to another human being. Your take on their punishment is exactly the reason they are the monsters that they are.

15. I hope everyone one of those girls gets tried as an adult and spends the rest of their lives rotting in prison.
