On the other side of the fence, we argue that to hell with that, throw the full book at her because this is abhorrant behaviour and she deserves the most severe punishment given out to deeds like this.
Me? I fall into the second group.
I hope she is found or comes forward and issues a public statement as to why she did it.
I'm sure it'll be a bull**** story of how she has been hard done by and she didn't have any other option.
We will then place sympathy with the perp, not the victim.
Maybe.
I sincerely hope not.

So, say she's psychotic, and thinks god is telling her to abandon her baby. Still going to throw the book at her?

I know it feels good to be tough and uncompromising. It's a shame that reality can be more complex than your stance can allow.
