Definitely. Really, anyone who commits horrific crimes must have some kind of problem...Scott Peterson, all of them. I think they have to show that the person didn't understand what they were doing in order for the mentally ill defense to stand up in court. If she was coherent enough to read the Bible and then do what she did...she must have understood the consequences. Would they give her the insanity defense if she knew what she was doing?
I don't know. Depends on the state. Bottom line, this woman needs to be behind bars for the rest of her life no matter what.....
