IIRC? Have you some personal experience with institutionalized insanity?
I'm just saying that a lot of people are complaining about people who plead insanity and labelling a crime as something when sometimes it's just a crime I get that. But in this case I think she's frickin nuts. Otherwise why are there places where the criminally insane are kept? Because it exists and there are different levels.
Again not saying I'm expert, but isn't post partum depression an official diagnosis. That's the sort of thing I'm thinking. I mean the natural state of a mother is not to carve up her offspring on a completely fundamental evolutionary level (sorry calgaryborn). So something is out of whack.
And again I'm not saying no punishment. Aren't there prisons for mental cases?
