. . . well, she is admittedly, but only becuase of insanity. Her defense - the devil made her do it. Yes, Andrea Yates drowned her young children at home in their bath tub 5 years ago when she claimed that Satan was inside of her and had to save her children from hell.


If Yates was right minded enough to identify that she was possesed by Lucifer and that hell was a state she did not want her children in, then she was sane enough to know that what she was doing was absolutely wrong.


Insane or not, this killer has long road ahead of her that will ultimately lead to redemption or damnation and there are no appeals courts on that side of eternity.
