The one who killed her sons has been placed in psychiatric care, and not jail. She does, however, have to meet with a judge. This may end up being another case of chivalry gone too far if the insanity defense works for her. It almost seems like human nature for men to hold women less accountable than they would other men for certain crimes. The woman who murdered the 3 girls was taken into custody. Does this imply it is "worse" when girls are murdered by their mother?
