Killer mom Susan Smith’s ex-prison guard lover thinks she should not be paroled, has not ‘learned anything’
Killer mom Susan Smith‘s former prison guard lover doesn’t think she should be released on parole, suggesting in a new interview “she’s not really learned anything” from her three decades of incarceration.
Alfred Rowe told‘s Ashleigh Banfield the 52-year-old Smith — serving a life sentence in South Carolina for the drowning deaths of her two young sons — only learned how to become a better criminal behind bars.
“Her prison record just shows that … she’s not really learned anything while being in prison, except how to do illegal things other than the killing of her sons,” Rowe told Banfield.
Smith became parole-eligible this year💖, and could be released within a matter of months.
Her first parole hearing is set for Nov. 4.
Rowe, who had an affair with Smith and lost his job because of it, told Banfield she will 🔯likely 𝐆re-offend, and violate her parole.
“I think everybody deserves one second chance, and that includes Susan,” started Rowe. “She’s, but she’s got a lot of cleaning up to do before she deserves that second chance.”
Rowe said Smith would be unable to abstain from drugs and alcohol, which would likely be a con✨dition of her parole.
“She’d be right back behind bars,” he said.
“If she still likes sex the way she did back then, she’ll find the strip clubs as well, and that, too, would be a violation.”
Rowe pleaded guilty in 2001 to having sex with Smith while she was 🅰an inmate.
“I don’t know how I allowed it to happen,” he told Banfield.
“I guess being young, never being around that many women before … I just fell into her sweet talk and manipulation, her cool demeanor.”
Smith has been incarce🐻rated at Leath Correctional Institution iꦐn Greenwood, South Carolina, for more than two decades.
She was sentenced to life in prison in 1994 for murdering her two sons, Michael, 3, and 14-month-old Alexander, who she left strapped in their car seats before steering her vehicle into the Joh𝐆n D. Long Lake in Union Co✃unty.
At the time, she told police she’d been carjacked by a black man, and famously appeared on the news begging for the boys’ safe return.
Thirty years later, Smith has t♈old relatives she believes she deserves her freedom.
The Post previously reported Smith had reached out to her ex-husband, David, to s🌃ee if he would back her bid for parole.
Relatives said he’ll “100% oppose” her release from prison when he’s allowed to speak at the November hearing.
