HOUSTON, Sept. 22 — A jury on Saturday found Andrea Yates competent to stand trial for the drowning deaths of her five children. Her defense lawyer had argued that Yates should be declared incompetent and allowed more time to recover from the psychotic features of her mental illness.

Good riddance!

That's the wrong decision.

Mrs. Yates has special needs that should be addressed. We are only focused on punishing and not getting to the real issue-----why people do the things they do.

The only thing she is not competent to do is live.

Thank Heavens it's in Texas - she won't be around for much longer.

Oh, her needs will be addressed. On that, have no fear. I have some friends that live in Houston, and the sentiment is fairly universal there. They will do their best to 'address her needs'.

It's good to be Texan, we don't fuck around.

good decision. crazy bitch syndrome should not be a defense. why do we want to know what made her do it? who cares, she killed five kids. she deserves the chair. 'roll on one'

That's the wrong decision.

Are you serious???

 

[RyanH]

Mrs. Yates has mental issues. No "normal" mother would drown her kids. If she dies, her husband should have to die along with her----for not helping his wife.

Her husband should go with her???That bitch was seeing a Shrink why not put that fucker on trial as well??It's pretty easy for me to say that people in Houston will have this ladies head on a platter

If she was so unfit how come she would freely talk about everything except when she was questioned about the kids of their deaths she would say "get me my lawyer"

Anyone who would kill people in non defense situations is not normal....Her husband ought to ashamed for standing by this monster

Now liberals think if you murder your kids you need understanding not punishment..............I'm sure she can be saved Ryan H your totally right. Let her have 5 more kids then.

Another example of liberalism....please take note

If we continue this train of thought, those "do-gooders" who get people like this released should also be held accountable for any subsequent murders.
Yeah, now that sounds like a plan to prevent the idealists from ruining society by continuing to give the offenders far more rights than the victims.
Taffy.
