However, the judge revoked her bond entirely, stating she is a danger to her newborn child.
Registered nurse Angela Wulbrecht testified that she became interested in the case after hearing about the deaths and offered support to the Shaw family.
Wulbrecht said she got to know Shaw well and observed only grief over her children.
