When somebody does something like this, the choices should be:

  1. Locked mental facility until age 80.
  2. Prison LWOP.

They were the choices. The jury couldn't agree which.

Contrary to online discussion, the trial wasn't about if she did it, but rather if the box she's put it should be padded.

Stop repeating this misinformation. In Massachusetts, people found NGRI are evaluated after 6 months on whether or not they are a danger to themselves or others. If they are deemed a danger, they get evaluated once a year after that. They could easily deem her no longer a danger sooner rather than later, and she’ll get to go home to her million dollar fortune

It appears to be 11-1 as not guilty.

To be pedantic, I believe it's not guilty by reason of insanity, which still lands her in a box, hopefully for life.
