From what I'm hearing, this was pretty much a slam-dunk. The prosecution couldn't find any psychologist or psychiatrist to state she was sane, and ended up arguing with their own witnesses. Many years ago, a friend of mine made a call on a guy who had beaten an eighteen month old child to death by grabbing him by his feet and swinging him into walls and coffee tables like a bat. He was a long time drug user and thought the child was a robot that was trying to take over his mind. The man was found not guilty by reason of insanity, but later gouged his own eyes out in the facility where he was being kept.
Some people really are insane.
I think there were four or five psychologist or psychiatrist used in the case and they all pretty much agreed that she didn't know what she was doing.... or that is how I've read the news accts which can be far from what actually happened in the court room.
