    Yates conviction overturned

    Andrea Yates’ Conviction Overturned:

    I’m not too worried about this. I’m actually looking at it as a positive thing. Why? Because she will be retried, and she will be found guilty again. And hopefully this time the Texas jury will do what they should have done originally and sentence her to death.

    May God have mercy on her soul.

    Yates’ Husband

    Check out this article from CNN where Andrea Yates’ husband blames the government, the insurance companies, the judicial system, and everyone else for what his wife did. Maybe he should try looking in the mirror. After each child, she had, she suffered from postpartum depression. And after each child, he wanted another one. Even after the doctor strongly advised her not to have any more children because her depression was so bad. But he kept insisting on more children. He’s as much responsible for the deaths of his children as she is. But in today’s society, no one is to blame. It’s always someone else’s fault. If it were up to me, they’d both be strapped to the table with a needle in their arms.

    So I’m reading this article about the Andrea Yates sentencing. Nothing that I haven’t read already. Until I get down towards the bottom, where I see this….

    A human rights group has filed a complaint with state regulators over Yates’ psychiatric treatment, contending that she received “shoddy” mental health care before drowning her children.

    Yates was in a psychotic state caused by premature release from care, use of inappropriate drugs and overmedication, according to CCHR Texas’ complaint filed with the state Board of Medical Examiners.

    Shoddy mental health care? Excuse me? She was told time and time again not to have any more children. But she kept on having them, no thanks to her husband, who should also be convicted as far as I’m concerned. This is nobody’s responsibility except her and her husband. If they’d let me, I’d push the plunger myself if they sentence her to death.

    UPDATE: The jury has given her life in prison. Way to puss out. You suck Texas.
