"My baby was alive still fighting for her babies when you tore her open and ripped her baby from her stomach," Brooks said, according to the Texarkana Gazette.
Prosecutors argued during the three-week trial that Parker disguised herself to appear pregnant, faked ultrasounds, and even had a gender-reveal party in an attempt to stay with her boyfriend.
