The only person who should go to prison for the deaths of those children would be Rusty Yates, Andrea's husband. He knowingly left those children alone with someone who was clearly incapable of caring for them.
In my opinion, the not guilty by reason of insanity verdict is the correct verdict. Andrea Yates has had a long history of psychosis and other mental problems. It's not as if she just suddenly "snapped" one day and decided to kill her children.
Now that this verdict is in, hopefully she can get the help she should have gotten all along. It's a tragedy that it took the deaths of those 5 innocent lives in order for her to get correct medical treatment.
She had shown signs before the day she killed the children, yet those around her chose to ignore or minimize her problems. When her brother told Rusty (Andrea's idiot husband) that he was concerned about Andrea, Rusty said that Andrea just needed to pull herself up by her beltstraps and do better.
For someone with mental illness, you cannot just "pull yourself up" and be better. It takes medication and possible therapy.
Rusty refused to allow Andrea to get the help she needed. He wanted to live in a converted school bus instead of in a house, even though they had 5 children! He insisted that they follow the teachings of a cult leader who had very strange ideas about the world.
Andrea showed many signs of injuring herseIf and the children before the day she killed the kids. Rusty ignored those signs, and refused to put her on medication. She had a mental illness and couldn't take care of herself. As her husband, HE HAD AN OBLIGATION TO GET HELP FOR HER IF SHE WAS INCAPABLE OF GETTING THAT HELP!
I think Rusty Yates should be prosecuted for child endangerment since he left his children alone with a woman who obviously was unable to care for them. He's more guilty than Andrea.

That is too good for her. She was found guilty and then got a new trial because someone didn't tell the truth at her first trial. Don't you think they had enough evidence without that one person's testimony? Leave it up to our justice system to not only give her a new trial but let her be found not guilty and then get to come back periodically to find out if she is sane and can go home. At the least they should make her have her tubes tied so she can't have any more children to go crazy on and drown!!!!

Is that how we'd want to continuously manage someone who's mentally ill? Andrea Yates has been got here across to be no longer in charge by reason of madness. You for sure do no longer consider the Jury. in case you ever get prosecuted ought to you assume that the alternative of a Jury of your friends - in the experience that they got here across you possibility free- might want to be skipped over and that you would possibly want to be honest pastime for everybody who did not like what you've been accused of? because it is what you're advocating. for sure you should deny that there is the form of ingredient as psychological ailment, so possibly we'd want to continuously scrap psychological well being care or perhaps as the subsequent pyschopath kills someone you want because they were no longer proper medicated then you fairly can congratulate your self.

Yes, do what she did - what has happened to my country?!
Why have doctors when it's so easy to just kill people?
Is all compassion lost? Why don't we try to find out what made
her go crazy?
Wait! That might take work. Go for the instant gratification of
just killing her.
You are about as disturbing as she is.
Ya know, she had problems before this & her husband kept
making her have more babies, ignoring the problem.
Where the hell is he?

I think the woman should have to endure the suffering, fear and agony that each of her children suffered in their final moments of life. She should have someone she trusts with her life and safety hold her underwater until she finally drowns!
She definitely does not deserve to EVER feel freedom again in her life.
(My husband thinks that she should have to work in a day care with children so she is constantly reminded of the innocent lives she took. That's a good one, too. Can you tell who is the violent one in our household??)

Anyway who kills a child should be dealt with swiftly and quickly, but maybe in a little bit more humane way than you suggest.

I would have been happy to adopt all 5 of her children.
