[QUOTE="Frank Underwood, post: 444132, member: 35"] My mistake then. There has been such a strong emphasis on the female jurors vs. the lone holdout being male that I got the impression he was the [I]only[/I] male on the jury. In fact, this is the first I heard that there were two other men on the jury (I looked it up to confirm). That leads me to believe the media is being deceptive on purpose (shocker). I don't believe people are being dismissive in terms of psychosis being a real condition. I just think the nature of the crime warrants lifetime incarceration. The problem with the "not guilty by reason of insanity" route is that the offender ends up being treated in a mental health facility rather than going to prison. If that came with the condition that the offender would spend the rest of their life in that facility, I could live with it. However, it's possible they could be released someday if the doctors believe they no longer pose a threat to themselves or others. Regardless of what drives a person to kill (especially their own children), I could never be comfortable with their release back into society. Of course, as it pertains to Lindsay Clancy specifically, I believe the psychologists are right about her not being in psychosis when she killed her children. [/QUOTE]
