ANCHORAGE, Alaska (AP) - A woman who shot her three teenage sons should be acquitted of murder because she is insane, even by Alaska's particularly strict standard, her lawyer told the judge who will decide her fate.
Cynthia Lord, 45, was tortured by delusions, unable to tell fantasy from reality, defense attorney Fred Dewey said Monday as her nonjury trial began.
"She thought her children were being turned into clones or robots," he said.
