She succeeded in killing the kids, and failed killing herself.
What a nut.

For like in Oklahoma, you can legally buy a fully automatic weapon on a gun fair...

What Laz SHOULD have said is that if you have ILLEGAL possession of a fully automatic weapon.......

It's still immaterial as the insanity situation would have gotten her off of that too.

IMO, once the insane person is "cured" they should then start to serve the sentence a "sane" person would receive for the same offense. In other words, insane but guilty.

Post by: Sandman on November 11, 2006, 06:15:33 PM: So... I take it that insanity is not insanity unless it's a life-long affliction?

Post by: lukster on November 11, 2006, 10:11:32 PM: Close to home, geographically.

The woman was found to be insane. If she is now sane, what's the point in keeping her locked up?

Maybe we need to examine our laws regarding insanity.
