Parnham said a new trial is a mixed blessing, because Yates will have to relive the horror of her children's deaths, but added, 'She needs to be found not guilty by reason of insanity.'"

Feminist Agenda Keepers In Texas (Score:2) by Luek on 10:41 AM November 10th, 2005 EST (#1) Gee whiz, I wonder who pulled the political strings to get poor little mass murderer Andrea Yates' murder conviction tossed out? They are trying to get her off by portraying her as just another a run of the mill girls go wild nut job thus no responsibility on her part. It is all the fault of the patriarchal medical/psychiatric profession that failed poor little Andrea and cause her to go berserk one morning and slaughter all of her 5 children not her! Oh, and let us not forget her husband's responsibility in this crime. He failed her too as we have all been told by the media. And the will of the people by a jury guilty verdict be damned! I suspect poor little Andrea has seen the last of prison. She will probably get a plea bargain with time already served and out she goes.Yippee! Let's hear it for the Texas judicial system! Soon it is off to the Oprah Winfrey Show and book signings galore! God, I want to vomit!

Of course it will depict Yates as the REAL victim and her husband as the villain. We've seen it all before, haven't we?   Thundercloud.   "Hoka hey!"

It's not as if society expects much from them in return! Could we at least arrange it so they stop killing people with no penalties? I'm not talking about abortion here - I mean walking, talking human beings in the 4th+ "trimester" Someone needs to tell these violent cows that their right to arbitrarily end a human being's existence ends in the second trimester.

If you can have a baby chopped up inside you then you can have it done outside too. All women who have had abortions should atleast be sent to rot in jail forever (and when they die don't take their bodies out, just let it decay in the cell and send a new woman in).
