Mom accused of severing baby's arms incompetent for trial
Tuesday, February 15, 2005 Posted: 7:03 AM EST (1203 GMT)

McKINNEY, Texas (AP) -- A woman accused of killing her 10-month-old daughter by cutting off her arms was ruled mentally incompetent to stand trial on capital murder charges.

Jurors on Monday reached a verdict after deliberating for just a few minutes in Dena Schlosser's brief competency trial. Both prosecutors and defense attorneys had requested that jurors find her incompetent so she could be treated at a mental hospital before standing trial.

Attorneys said they expect the judge to commit Schlosser to a state hospital on Tuesday. She could still stand trial if she is someday found competent.

Schlosser, 36, was charged with murder November 22 after she told a 911 operator she had severed her 10-month-old daughter's arms. Police found Schlosser in the living room, covered in blood, still holding a knife and listening to a church hymn.

She was later diagnosed with manic depression.

In court, Schlosser sat slumped in her chair and stared straight ahead when the verdict was read, just as she did during most of the trial. Her wrists and ankles were shackled with black belts.

"We're just glad that the jury saw it our way," defense attorney David Haynes said. He said Schlosser was "overwhelmed, kind of numb and glad to have it over."

Earlier Monday, a court-appointed psychiatrist testified that Schlosser suffers from manic-depression and may try to commit suicide. "She's stated over and over that she wishes she'd been allowed to go with her daughter," Dr. David Self said.

Self, who evaluated Schlosser on Sunday, said Schlosser was often incoherent and that her depression had "grossly worsened" since he examined her last month and recommended she be placed in a mental hospital.

Schlosser sobbed uncontrollably, whispered incoherently and repeated phrases that had nothing to do with his questions, Self said.

Schlosser's two surviving daughters, ages 6 and 9, were returned to their father this week after living in foster care since their mother's arrest.

She's probably screwed up in the head, which is sad. Poor little baby.

oh no not this again

Michael [hXc] · 02-15-2005, 05:07 PM

and no she doesn't deserved to be punished because she'd never learn what she did wrong because she's so mentally messed up.

More news stories. Yayyy.

this was posted a few months ago and there was a nasty debate over it.

all i'll say is that whatever you think should be done with her, fine, it's your opinion. but she has a serious psychotic disorder and she could not help what she did. her mind went out of control and there was nothing she could do. i think putting her in a mental hospital for the rest of her life (or a very long time) would be the sensible thing to do, she shouldn't be punished. it's not that she has a "right" to kill people, but like i said she didn't do it voluntarily.

but nevertheless, it's awful what she did. no baby should be tortured like that.
