She Admits To Killing Her Kids: Should She Be Free?

Article here. Excerpt:

'The crime was so horrible, it's been hard for many to forget, especially in the town of Lamar. Two small children murdered in their own home on South 6th Street during the afternoon hours of October 16, 2003.

Grace Headlee, 4, and Gabriel Amaya, only 5-months-old, were drowned in their bathtub by their own mother Rebekah Amaya.

Right now we are awaiting a judge's decision on whether Amaya will be free to walk among us. She is asking for the chance to make unsupervised trips away from the State Mental Health Institute.
...
Amaya's former sister-in-law, Michelle Jamie, was and is still outraged that Amaya admitted to the crime, but in 2005 a judge found Amaya Not Guilty by Reason of Insanity.

"She killed, she took two lives and she hasn't spent a single day in prison. It's just not fair," Michelle Jamie said. "Innocent by reason of insanity, kind of contradicting. Innocent and killing. Just should be guilty by reason of insanity."

By law, a person cannot be found guilty if he or she doesn't remember the crime or could not distinguish between right and wrong at the time of the crime.

In 2005, psychiatrists testified Amaya was mentally ill and suffered from Post Partum Depression and Psychosis.'

is a good one where the precious privileged pampered

pieces of poo are concerned, and the manginas who worship them.

why waste $$$ bothering to attempt to prosecute them?

guess tax paid lawyers gotta eat too.

probably a whole legion of people making $$ up and down

the craazy verdict line, just like for putting men in prison.
