The article has the answer why no death penalty considered:
A capital murder conviction in Texas carries either life in prison or the death penalty. Prosecutors could not seek death this time because the first trial's jurors sentenced her to life in prison, and authorities found no new evidence.

At least the cable outlets will have something to talk about. They always fail us so terribly on the really important stuff, but let some nutcase knock off a family member, and they are wall-to-wall. How many "Trials of the Century" does this make, so far?

The current jury was not asked about support for the death penalty because the prosecution was barred from seeking the death penalty in the retrial.

She may be insane, but she deserves to be executed just the same.
If a person is insane, it does not matter. They do not deserve any "mercy" because of their condition.
They need to be executed just as much as a rational murderer.

Maybe she pleaded "not guilty due to insanity" so that she will be released and free to give herself the death penalty.
Well, one can hope, anyway...

She's a woman, therefore she must have been insane to kill her children.
Not Guilty, BROI.

If they find her not guilty due to insanity, will she be set free???? Can she be found not guilty and still be kept locked up???
