Отличать добро от зла
Сейчас пересматривают дело Andrea Yates, которая в 2001 утопила в ванне своих пятерых детей, в возрасте от шести месяцев до семи лет.
Основание для пересмотра - ошибочное заключение психиатра (тот ссылался на телеэпизод в передаче "Law & Order", в котором женщина в подобной ситуации была оправдана по причине невменяемости, и который Andrea якобы видела - выяснилось, что такого эпизода не было). Это, как раз, не самое интересное.
Для следствия важно, могла ли она отличить правильное от неправильного в момент совершения убийств, в другом варианте - понимала ли она, что поступает неправильно.

Жуткий финал с жуткой предысторией, там и своеобразный муж, и фанатичный священник, и некомпетентный лечащий психиатр.
Послеродовой психоз - не то, что человек может контролировать, но там было полно вещей, которые можно было поправить, если бы рядом был кто-то в своем уме.

Детали ее биографии (медсестра до того, как стала домохозяйкой): ...Michael Woroniecki - traveling minister from whom Rusty purchased their bus - preached, "the role of women is derived from the sin of Eve and that bad mothers who are going to hell create bad children who will go to hell." Andrea was so totally captivated by Woroniecki that Rusty and Andrea's family grew concerned. 1999 - after suicide attempt, he was transferred to the Methodist Hospital psychiatric unit and diagnosed with a major depressive disorder. The medical staff described Andrea as evasive in discussing her problems. However, on June 24 she was prescribed an antidepressant and released.

Spiraling Downward: Once home, Andrea did not take the medication and as a result she began to self mutilate and refused to feed her children because she felt they were eating too much. She thought there were video cameras in the ceilings and said that the characters on television were talking to her and the children. She told Rusty about the hallucinations, yet neither of them informed Andrea's psychiatrist, Dr. Starbranch.

On July 20, Andrea put a knife to her neck and begged her husband to let her die.Andrea was again hospitalized and stayed in a catatonic state for 10 days. After being treated with an injection of different drugs that included Haldol, an anti-psychotic drug, her condition immediately improved. Rusty was optimistic about the drug therapy because Andrea appeared more like the person he first met. Dr. Starbranch warned the Yates that having another baby might bring on more episodes of psychotic behavior. Andrea was placed on out-patient care and prescribed Haldol<...>In March of 2000, Andrea, on Rusty's urging, became pregnant and stopped taking the Haldol. On November 30, 2000, Mary was born. Andrea was coping but on March 12, her father died and immediately her mental state digressed. She stopped talking, refused liquids, mutilated herself, and would not feed Mary. She also frantically read the Bible.

By the end of March Andrea returned to a different hospital. Her psychiatrist, Dr. Mohammed Saeed, treated her briefly with Haldol but discontinued it, saying that she did not did not seem psychotic. Andrea was released only to return again in May. She was released in 10 days and in her last follow-up visit with Saeed, she was told to think positive thoughts and to see a psychologist.

Two days later, Rusty left for work and before his mother arrived to help, Andrea began to put into action the thoughts that had consumed her for two years.


Детали ее замужства и биографии ее мужа (инженера в космическом центре): Andrea and Russell had difficulty in communicating with each other.

They never left the kids with baby sitters.

Russell believed in a traditional marriage of a wife submitting to her husband, and that a man should be the breadwinner while the woman should be the homemaker and take care of all the housework and child care. He is described as considering women to be inferior.

Andrea home-schooled their children and reportedly had little time to herself.

Russell has stated that they wanted to live a simple life and to avoid social integration. Russell reportedly told Andrea that her weaknesses would be punished by God.

Идея, что религиозные фанатики -- защитники "семейных ценностей", мне всегда казалась несколько странной.

Такие своеобразные семейные ценности просто.

Ничего общего с религией. Религия не запрещает никому оставлять детей с нянями.
