Since her release from prison, Katie’s son and daughter have managed to stay out of the public eye. But in a 2015 interview with AGN TV, Katie shared that her conviction cost her more than her reputation — she also paid the price of losing her children. 

She explained, “There’s no refunds for lost time. I’ve lost my career, my car, my home, and my kids are 1,500 miles apart from each other.”

Katie continued, “I did tell my son when this was going on that we got two options: We can either crumble under the pressure of this or we can rise to a whole new level of epicness. And we chose to rise. He’s been a trooper, and that kid’s been through it.”

During the interview, Katie also apologized to Robin’s family for the role she played in her murder, even if she didn’t pull the trigger herself. Robin shared, “What happened to Robin was unnecessary. It was cruel. I don’t know what kind of pain [her family has] been through and I don’t want to know what kind of pain they’ve been through. If it was anything like mine, it was unbearable.”

“Now they’re confused once again and they’re starting all over. I’m sorry for what happened to them. I don’t want to know what it feels like to lose a child. I have a daughter; I don’t want to know that pain,” Katie added. 

Since then, it was reported that Katie had graduated from West Texas A&M with a degree in legal studies and even became a paralegal. But she said that life hasn’t been the same since Robin’s tragic murder.

In death, Robin Spielbauer is survived by two children — Jaiden and Harley Spielbauer — but where are they now?
