    i'm really surprised that this hasn't hit CNN yet:

    http://www.mysanantonio.com/news/51796152.html

    don't mind the title of the story, it's actually the third from mysa.com.. it's really about a mentally ill mother murdering her 3.5 week old baby..

    this not only makes me sick and sad, but what's really bad is that it happened in the neighborhood that i grew up in. i used to play basketball at the old church across the street, skate in the parking lot on the other side of the street, went to elementary school a few blocks away and middle school down the street.

    my father still lives two streets over and my new gf's mom lives four streets down (we went to elementary and middle school together), my aunt live crawling distance, as well..

    why does this stuff happen? :( :bawl:
     
  2. What the hell?

    I have absolutely no words. :(

    Just...nothing.

    Nobody who has a brain that is working properly acts this way. It's a pretty safe bet that (for whatever specific reason) this woman is seriously mentally ill and was clueless about what she was doing.

    Shoot her, get it over with. Worthless human being, IMHO.

    Wow, just wow. In a way, the baby is better off now than it would have been being raised by a bunch of heathens.

    Death Penalty Case, crazy or not.

    I have a 2 yr old lady and she is the light of my life.
    How can a mother do this? Fry her in the electric chair......

    I blame the parents.
     
  15. postnatal depression aswell as the general mess up of hormones from pregnancy can wreck havok on the human mind. Especially one that may already be unstable.

    I've never seen anything like this happen, though I do know someone who commited suicide after the birth of her child.

    just a few blocks from my wife's childhood home ...
    that's the defense her lawyer is going to use ...
    yup .
    even so , i think she'll be going away for the rest of her life ...
     
  18. Yeah, she was probably legally insane when she did this. Problem is, if you can cure her of the insanity, how in the world can she live with herself, knowing what she did to her own child while not sane? Probably drive her nuts again, or to commit suicide...

    I had to stop after the sentence that began "Sanchez confessed". I couldn't take any more. How terrible.
