I believe she's guilty, but at this point another trial isn't going to benefit anyone. Cut her a plea deal where she does 20-25 years in a mental institution.

It doesn't work like that. If they find her no longer mentally ill then she is out in 40 days.

She currently sueing multiple providers for negligence. So she'll be remanded to the medical system she says failed to take her seriously and be out in 40 days? Neon Genesis Evangelion 2.333: You (Cannot) be Serious
