>My sole point is that this mother in her right mind would not have done this. Period.
Then your sole point is incredibly wrong. "Her right mind" from a legal standpoint is the ability to recognize that you are doing something wrong, and that covers plenty of otherwise "crazy" people. In fact, depression almost never results in legal insanity, because depression almost never results in an inability to differentiate between right and wrong. It may make you not care, but it doesn't cloud your judgment to that degree.
