Another mother's negligence
I just read over the internet that a mother in Texas drowned her five children in a bathtub yesterday. The ages rance from six months to seven years old. One child walked in on her as she was drowning the six month old. He asked his mom what was the matter with Mary. The last one to get killed I presumed was the seven year old. She chased him around the house before drowning him. You must imagine what that little boy was going through because he was old enough to know what was going on. Imagine what all of those babies went through. Then she called her husband at work and told him that he needed to come home because the children were hurt. They are trying to balame it on postpartum psychosis. The mother was on medication-Haldol-which the helped in the past. The doctors states that this medicine would cause violence and something else. Now this woman is home schooling these children, she's there with them all of the time, she is on medication, and she has attempted suicide about two times. They are trying to say that she was hearing voices that were telling her to kill herself or the baby. Otherwise she just snapped. Her husband is beside her 100%. I know that she will get off because of her mental depression, but I think that she should get the lethal injection because she took a life, an innocent and defenseless child's life. I don't care how upset or depressed I am, I will never take it out on my babies or anyone else. She will probably get off with insanity and spend some time in a mental institution. I don't have remorse for anyone who takes a person life unless it was self defense. I feel that the person who takes a life, and it is proven, should die the same way the victim died. What so you think of this?
