She's a feminist. I am sure her beliefs about babies made the dirty deed a little easier.

The child, Raya Donagi, was found bleeding and unconscious after her grandmother called 911 about 9 a.m. She was pronounced dead at the St. Paul home. Relatives told police that the girl's mother, Mine An Ener, "had inflicted the fatal injuries to the infant," police Sgt. Janet Dunnom said. Police say Ener also confessed to the killing, but prosecutors had not charged her with a crime as of Monday."

I did a search for Mine Ener and found all kinds of interesting things, including:
"This semester we have invited feminist/historian Mine Ener, Assistant Professorat Villanova University, who will speakabout women, bla bla bla....."

Maybe we should end that leg gene pool forever with doing the mom in "middle eastern" style.

Wow! You'd think an enlightened feminist professor like this would hold her child's life in higher regard, or at least show more remorse for taking its life... wait a min- what am I saying???

Mother Accused of Slitting Baby's Throat
Tuesday, August 05, 2003
ST. PAUL, Minn. Police have arrested a 38-year-old professor accused of fatally slitting her infant daughter's throat Monday morning while visiting her mother's house.
The child, Raya Donagi, was found bleeding and unconscious after her grandmother called 911 about 9 a.m. She was pronounced dead at the St. Paul home.
Relatives told police that the girl's mother, Mine An Ener, "had inflicted the fatal injuries to the infant," police Sgt. Janet Dunnom said. Police say Ener also confessed to the killing, but prosecutors had not charged her with a crime as of Monday.
Ener, a history professor at Villanova University (search) in Pennsylvania, had recently returned with her daughter to be with family as she struggled with depression.
Ener told police she suffered from postpartum depression and was on medication. She also said the child had suffered from some physical ailments at one point, the child was nourished with a feeding tube and she just wanted to give the baby some relief.
"She felt the baby was suffering," said police Sgt. Bruce Wynkoop.
According to police:
Ener finished feeding Raya in a family room about 9 a.m. She carried Raya to the bathroom, pausing in the kitchen to grab a large knife. She lay the child face-up on the floor, leaned over the girl and pressed the blade of the knife twice across her throat.
Seconds later, Ener appeared empty-handed before her own mother in the family's St. Paul home.
"I think I killed the baby," she said, according to police.
An autopsy was scheduled, with results expected Tuesday.
In an interview with police later Monday, Ener was very matter-of-fact as she talked about everything from the killing to her work as a professor. She showed little emotion.
"There were no tears," Wynkoop said. "I asked, 'Do you feel sorry you did this?' and it was 'Oh, yes, I do.' "
Ener, who grew up in St. Paul, was a graduate of St. Paul Central High School and went on to St. Paul's Macalester College (search). After earning her doctoral degree at the University of Michigan (search), Ener started at Villanova in 1996.
"She's had a very good and strong record here," said John Johannes, vice president of academic affairs at Villanova. "She's being published and she's a good scholar. She is very accomplished."
Campus officials have never had any problems associated with Ener.
Ener married a year ago, and on Feb. 1 gave birth to Raya her first and only child.
But it was after Raya's birth that Ener began having emotional problems, family told police. Relatives feared Ener might end her own life. Recently, she had returned to St. Paul not only for a visit but also to get some rest.
"She was trying to get herself together," Wynkoop said. "The family has been very supportive of her during her struggle with depression. The family had offered to take care of the baby for a while."

She also teaches "Islamic Civilization" Which means she was only responding to a thousand years of inbred traditional beliefs that females are inferior and must be killed after birth.

Listen to Hannity today! I bet he takes the mother's side in this.
I can just hear him now as he says " You have to hear the mother's side of it"
Or is that just for BBall players?

How old was the child. I mean, was mother just a few days late in excersizing her right of "Choice", or had the kid learned to talk? According to the
utilitarian types, this matters.

Somemore background on this interesting academician.
Mine Ener is receiving her Ph.D. from the University of Michigan where her studies included modern Middle East, early Islamic and North African history. Her language facility ranges over modern Arabic, Egyptian colloquial Arabic, modern and Ottoman Turkish, and French.
At Villanova, in addition to offering a one-year survey and electives in Middle Eastern history, Ener will also help to team-teach the core course required for first-year undergraduates, Themes of Modern World History. She will also serve as a member of the Center for Arab and Islamic Studies. At Michigan, Ener was a teaching assistant in history and also taught in the Women's Studies Program.
For her dissertation, "Managing the Poor in Nineteenth and Early Twentieth Century Egypt," Ener did research in Egypt during 1993-1995 aided by a Fulbright-Hays Dissertation Fellowship, a Social Science Research Council and American Council for Learned Societies Dissertation Fellowship, and an American Association of University Women Dissertation Grant.

My cousin had post partum depression so badly that she had both of her children taken away from her. She never recovered from it fully having been in an institution, then group home, then finally her own apartment. She committed suicide this past April - some 20 years after the birth of her first child.

This is a sad thing here. Couldn't we wait to see what the deal is here. I don't think women plan to murder their babies. And it is sickening to see people jump on the political bandwagon. That woman in Texas who murdered her children was no feminist. Quite the opposite. Infanticide happens regardless of one's politics and has little to do with one's politics. The cruelty here is sometimes amazing, the quick readiness to make assumptions when we know nothing.

YOu could call a sickness anything other than something related to or triggered by birth.
But.. an excuse is an excuse ..

Talk about irony. I was reading Tammy Bruce's "The Death of Right and Wrong" this morning and had just finished the section condemning the postpartum depression defense in the Andrea Yates case. It's no excuse for infanticide. And NOW will defend this crazy bitch until the end.

Agreed,
Even in my limited experience, the sleep deprivation alone was enough to make you unstable. Something snaps, that is for sure.

I believe is was not more than a few months old.
My wife suffers from depression so I feel from everyone involved, even the woman (to a point). The woman was psychotic from the effects of the pregnancy and was killing herself via the baby.
How very sad. If she had done this before the baby was born, no news story. No nothing. Then, perhaps, her psychosis would have become evident by her becoming hardcore pro-abortion, justifying her 'choice'.
