The Insanity of the Defense
A person is held not responsible for his criminal actions if s/he cannot tell right from wrong ("lacks substantial capacity either to appreciate the criminality (wrongfulness) of his conduct" - diminished capacity), did not intend to act the way he did (absent "mens rea") and/or could not control his behavior ("irresistible impulse"). These handicaps are often associated with "mental disease or defect" or "mental retardation".

Dangers of Postpartum Psychosis
RoseMeade takes a look at the characteristics of parents with postpartum psychosis. We study parents that have reached the point of taking the life of their own children. The Andrea Yates case is reflected upon in order to cover some of the early warning signs. We look deeper into the phenomena and help others do the same so that the lives of young children can possibly be saved by earlier detection of the mental state of the parent.
