This incident happened after school was out and the only child that was old enough for school was the oldest child. Therefore, this excuse to put homeschooling in a bad light is based on wrong facts.
She was under mental health care but the shrink refused to put her on haldol. She was sane enough to call 911 immediately after she did the deed where she planned it out and acted in the hour between her husband leaving for work and her MIL coming in to help. She should have fried for this especially when she chased the oldest one around the house.
There is a reason why the state didn’t charge her for all of the murders.
“she planned it out and acted in the hour between her husband leaving for work and her MIL coming in to help”
Exactly; she had it all set up in her head and acted according to a well laid plan.
