Doesn't count for what?
Oh, I get it. You just wanna make sure the fact that the overwhelming number of child murders are committed by males doesn't go by without mentioning a woman or two.
Use an absolute word like always and then expect such a response. It would have been better if I had just ignored your stupid tagline, but I didn't so your welcome.
"...the overwhelming number of child murders are committed by males..."
Of course this is true of ALL murders. And there is no doubt in my mind that Andrea Yates was seriously mentally ill, the psychiatric records are there to prove it, so I think to say her crimes were "pre-meditated" really doesn't hold water.
Of course, the supposedly "sane" husband was really the crazy person, he may as well as left his children to be cared for by the patients at the Bellevue Psych ward.
Now that he's gone on to get remarried, having divorced the sick and incarcerated Andrea, well, I think if there was any "pre-meditation" it might have been on the part of Rocket Scientist Mr. Yates.
