Sylkat, unfortunately, I have to agree. She was probably ashamed of her son. Putting him away wouldn't be enough. There would still be bills and phone calls from doctors and people asking about him and such. It probably destroyed her self-conception as one of the beautiful people to know she had brought a baby into the world that was less than perfect.


I think this is (unfortunately) probably closest to the truth. If you look at the wealthy social circles she mixes with her so would have been seen as something to be pitied and she was perhaps self-conscious what her rich and powerful contacts would think of her having a "disabled" son. Many of these who live in ivory towers are fiercely competitive over their children. I imagine along with her other personal problems she was unable to cope and tried to take the cheap and easy way out of it by removing her innocent son from the picture.

Thanks to her money she has practically gotten away with it anyway. She was found not guilty of murder, and she will be out of prison in 10 years (maybe sooner if her appeals are successful).

Far too short, life in prison with hard labour would be correct. I would give her an extra large cell with 500 kilos of sand, plus a child's plastic beach spade. To earn her normal meals (give her Nutraloaf, disciplinary loaf, food loaf, confinement loaf, seg loaf, or special management meal otherwise) she would have to move the sand pile from one end of the cell to the other. The next day she would have to move it back again.

She should be glad I am not the judge in her case.

Diagnosed under the DSM5 rules with autism spectrum disorder, under DSM4 psychologist said would have been AS (299.80) but I suspect that I am somewhere between 299.80 and 299.00 (Autism) under DSM4.
