Awww, shut up, Yates and do your time.
Take it like a woman.
Thundercloud.
"Hoka hey!"

"Yates' husband, Russell, who attended Tuesday's court session, filed for divorce earlier this year."
She'll probably get custody of the kids.
OH WAIT!

She IS taking it like a woman.
Whining and asking not to be held responsible.

"After jurors found Yates guilty, attorneys in the case and jurors learned that no such "Law and Order" episode existed."
Besides the sheer lunacy of overturning a REAL LIFE court because of a problem with a PRETEND court, this line gives the impression that the jurors ruled before finding out about the episode, which to me indicates that the arguement concerning the show made no impact at all. I honestly wasn't too clear on this part.
The problem isn't that she may or may not have watched a TV show, but that SHE KILLED HER THREE CHILDREN. Let's rule on that.
" Yates' attorneys also claim the Texas insanity standard, which required the defendant prove she did not know her actions were wrong, is unconstitutional because it does not define the words "know" and "wrong.""
So, I had two comments for this one.
First:
Just so you know:
Know means TO UNDERSTAND.
Wrong means NOT RIGHT.
Killing children is UNDERSTANDABLY NOT RIGHT.
Secondly:
Define "define".

I'm not surprised by an appeal, which happens in even the most outrageous cases. What I find obscene is the amount of sympathy the media pours onto this psycho killer. I just saw a program about Yates on either MSNBC or CNBC, talking about how she was was depressed and confused at the time. And now she will have to live the rest of her life knowing what she has done! There were actually freaking violins in the background! Can anyone imagine Scott Peterson being presented in such a way? Fucking insane.
