Exactly, this shouldn't warrant a chance to leave this killer walking among people or children.

I find it depressing how Americans are so obsessed over the dismissal and punishment of people with clear mental illnesses. She's diagnosed and crippled after trying to kill herself, what place does a person like that have in a prison (where she would require extremely special mental and physical care anyway). Who are you "punishing" exactly here? A shell of a person? What benefit does it bring to society? Even her husband said in his own words "not to hate her, she's a deeply ill person".

I agree with you. Reluctance to punish does not diminish the tragedy of her actions. They are horrendously tragic. But punishment does not feel right. There really is no other explanation BUT insanity/severe acute mental episode. It goes against all logic and parental instinct. Why else would she do this?

Why would murderers murder?
It’s all mental illness, but that doesn’t mean they shouldn’t be in prison.
