By the way, it seems this "kill in the name of God" is more common than we think:
Read here:

This killer mom was convicted to 2 years in prison, after killing her 2 children and atempting suicide to rejoin her husband in heaven...
Read here:

There seems to be a lot of killer moms out there. And they all do it in the name of...
It must be a new trend.
But the issue here is that they had entirely diferent sentences:
One was sentenced to regular jail, while the other was sentenced to mental institution, even though both cases shared enormous similarities.
Bugger me if i know why...


PS:It seems one of these killer moms has been adopted as the new banner of a feminist organization, wich raised funds for her defense.
Read it here:

Read it HERE also, as the killer mom became the new poster child for feminist groups:

"Andrea Yates, the Houston mother who drowned her five children last June, is the newest feminist icon. The National Organization for Women is rallying around her. Diana Lynn-Barnes of the Center for Postpartum Health sounded the battle cry: "Women are mad as hell and they are not going to take it anymore. There's a vast amount of compassion for Andrea Yates because . . . they can see how one could go down this road. She's a victim of a culture that says women come last." Newsweek columnist Anna Quindlen invoked the "insidious cult of motherhood" to explain Yates' actions. "

Uhh???
