.... use to describe her actions. But yet, the jury rejected the death penalty and chose a life sentence instead. The jury believed that justice was served by handing her the life sentence. But was it justice that she was not put to death for killing her two children? How could someone possibly let her off the hook of such a crime? "All grandeur, all power, all subordination to authority rests on the executioner: he is the horror and the bond of human association.
