IS the ASSAULT on Mrs. YATES over?

[Peyote Killa]

medical experts exist for a reason----to enlighten the jury on the question of whether Mrs. Yates understood the wrongfulness of her actions. Medical experts associated with Mrs. Yates seem to overwhemingly agree----Mrs. Yates did not understand the wrongfulness of her actions nor did she understand the nature of her actions.

Soon it will be up to 12 of your Texas peers to decide whether medical science and common sense wins the day or whether harsh, vengful punishment does. Surely, the former will prevail.

I hope so too, seeing how I'm in Texas and all. It actually happened like 3 blocks from where I live in Clear Lake.
Actually I think they should put her in a room with a tub full of water, and a guy with whatever problem they are claiming she has. Then the guy would drown her, and case over.

More than a half dozen expert witnesses have been subpoenaed to testify on Yates’s behalf. But Gerald Treece, associate dean of the South Texas College of Law in Houston, says that Yates’s lawyers have a difficult job trying to convince jurors in the death penalty capital of America to buy the insanity defense. “Texas is a very tough state on the insanity defense,” Treece says. “The defense has to show that the individual suffered from a mental disease or defect that rendered it impossible for him to know the difference between right and wrong. We are in the minority of states that have such a high standard for insanity ... If that is your defense in Texas, that is not good news.”


Regardless of whether she is insane or not she will get life in prison. The insanity defense isn't going to work in Texas.

Uh Ryan, one question, exactly WHEN is it not ok to butcher your children? I suppose since these were younger children, and couldn't shake mom off as she was putting them putting their heads in the water one by one, that she has the right? When exactly does a child have the right to exist without it being ok to be disposed of like a piece of garbage? 10?, 18?

I guess once you agree like Ryan that you can kill a baby at any time what would be wrong with killing them few months or years later? And since liberals are in favor of killing the weak and mentally challenged (Dr. Pete Singer, Yale University says these people should be put down like a crippled pet) you can be assured that people like Ryan will be the one passing laws to find genetic flaws in the womb, and have these people killed before birth, in the name of "compassion". I just wonder what he will do when when homosexual behavior is defined as a genetic disorder? Should genetic flaws be allowed to reproduce? This is the world that Ryan and his ilk are bringing us to.

I'm with you Ryan. I hope she doesn't get the death penalty either. I hope she's tortured and then brutally murdered by the inmates in her cell block.

 

[bigguns7]

you are suggesting euthanizing people who do not wish to die. In other words, MURDER. That makes you no better than the people you advocate killing. In fact, that makes you worse because while their actions may be beyond their control, yours represent a concious decision to take life.

Didn't you just say you were pro death penalty? Do you think it's conceivable that the men who are fried in the chair do not wish to die? Isn't execution a concious decision to take life?

You should choose a side of the fence to stand on doc.

Insanity is a trumped up bullshit defense! That bitch had motive, opportunity, and capability. So wht if she says she is satan? I could say that too. But you know what, she knew exactly what she was doing. She waited for hubby to go to work, killed the kids. She even had to chase one around the house to kill him, and then she called her hubby at work to let him know and then called the police to let them know.

Cycle is over had to stop for Marines. But it was going good though.

 

[Zebo]

Either way her life is over.

Its irrelevant what you think.

Don't Mess with Texas........

my input...

this was premeditated...she said she had been thinking of this and planning it for TWO years! also...look at what she told her husband in the phone call to let him know what she had done...

she told him it was time to come home that she had really did it this time....and he said "the kids" "which one"? ...and she said all of them....so it almost seemed like a control issue....this was her way of getting back at him....in a bizarre, sicko way...

plus...i had post partum depression after i had my child...but was due to breast feeding...my estrogen levels dropped to a menopausal level...but i was aware something was wrong and my ob/gyn put me on estrogen for a month...but within a few days i was normal...but i didn't consider harming my child...he's a wonderful 7 yr old!...if anything post partum depression causes you to neglect the child...because u don't feel like u have the energy to do anything...so slow to respond if they cry...i had my mom come down...which she did too...

i read her psychiatric evaluation which is posted on the net....she really seemed to me to have ordinary PP depression....some of the other stuff....i'm not so sure she didn't fabricate....cause it didn't fit....and yes...psychiatrists can be fooled....they only know what you TELL them....there's more here going on between her & hubby....this was her way of getting back at him and away from him via incarceration....cause he was crazy about those kids...obviously didn't care about her health to have more...she hit him where it would hurt the most....i say she is very cold & calculating....

Who here who is in favor of the death penalty will admit that their support stems from a desire for vengence?

p.s. before someone starts with the, "you Europeans are SOCIALIST LIBERAL pussies blah blah," I don´t care one way or the other about the death penalty.

 

[chesty]

Of course it is revenge to a degree. I admit that. I would most definitely want revenge on anyone who would harm my friends or family. Make no mistake about it. The last thing on my mind would be to feel sorry for them because they are insane. In fact why should they be allowed to deprive me and or my loved ones from their life and liberty and yet they get to have all of those rights and privelages in spite of their deprevation of them from my loved ones. Fuck them, you take a life in cold blood you need to have yours extinguished as well. You are no longer useful to this planet and her population.
