Bad luck for her that she didn't live in Virginia. The governor would have had her back.

Under the Infanticide Act 1938, women can be found to have committed infanticide rather than murder under the certain circumstances.

The law describes the crime as: 'Where a woman by any wilful act or omission causes the death of her child being a child under the age of twelve months, but at the time of the act or omission the balance of her mind was disturbed by reason of her not having fully recovered from the effect of giving birth to the child or by reason of the effect of lactation consequent upon the birth of the child.'

They’re gonna get her on infanticide rather than murder? /r/Pussypass...fuck that shit.

From the title, it sounds like she went on to kill a second child, but they were just bringing a second set of charges for the earlier case.
