New yearbook photos of Susan Smith, who murdered her two sons in 1994, have surfaced. The images show her as a smiling honor student, known as the "friendliest" in her class, just five years before the killings. Smith appeared virtually at her first parole hearing since incarceration, expressing remorse for her actions. The parole board unanimously denied her request, with the children's father arguing that her crimes were not a tragic mistake. Smith, who was sentenced to life in prison, will be eligible for parole again in two years. She has faced multiple disciplinary issues while incarcerated.
