Nah, don't worry. LOTS of religious Texas ladies get away with whacking their babies for Jesus!

In Texas: Andrea Yates drowned all of her children for the Lord: Found not guilty.

In Texas: Deanna LaJune Laney stoned her sons to death for Jesus: Found not guilty.

In Texas: Lisa Ann Diaz drowned her kids before the evils spirits got them first: Acquitted.

In Texas: Dena Schlosser offered her daughter to the Lord: Found not guilty by reason of insanity.

And now, in Texas: Otty Sanchez stabbed and decapitated her 3 and a half week-old son after the devil told her to do it.

"She mentioned that someone or something told her to do it, she was hearing voices. So that leads us to believe that she was experiencing some type of mental crisis," Rios said. "The baby had obviously been decapitated."

McCourt said she told investigators that the devil told her to kill her son."

There's clearly a cultural pattern developing in that state, one no one really wants to discuss, out of fear of offending religious and regional sensitivities.

Court is just a formality.

It's practically a rite of passage for religious Texas mommies to prove their faith and whack a baby for Jesus.

She'll get away with it, and I propose the statistic that there's more parents that almost kill their kids than there are those who do it. Abraham was the first post-partum depression case, hearing the righteous voice of the Lawd tellin' him to knife Isaac... until Gawd called him off.

My theory is that the near-sacrifice of Isaac, bound on the mountain-top in Moriah, is a parable for more worldly parenting. It accepts that the harried parent might reflexively think he has a legitimate reason to kill his kid, but the noble thing is to hear any whisper of second-guessing... of Jehovah... in your ear... at the last second... and spare the mischievous monster, damaging him no further than making it clear you could do it if you had to. Genesis 22 may be the first case study in harmer reduction.
