we had a case here (and Xero, stop reading right now) in fact is involved the mom of one of my eldest son's classmates. She took the boy and his younger borther, who was just shy of turning 2, took them out into an isolated area sliced their throats and then cut herself and then went to a farm house witha story about being attacked. The little boy died, the older survived, but with the knwoledge that his mother tried to kill him and the vision of having see his little brother murdered by their mom.
It chokes me up just to write this.
we had all hoped that she would just plead guilty and be done....nope, she's pleading not guilty by reason of insanity, which I guess is fine, everybody's entitled to a trial, but it string things out and now, I'm afraid the 7 year old is going to have to testify...I'm with the two of you. If that was me and I'd done something horrific like that I wouldn't want to continue to live...
I don't usually wish others harm and I believe their fate is ultimately in someone elses hands, but I just kind of wish she'd have been successful at doing herself in, although , if she hadn't made it to the farm house, the older boy may not have survived, so who knows.....
