When Law clashes with Science

I am following the case of the depressed mother who drowned her

    own children. It seems to me that the law is way behind  modern psychology

    in its dark age concept of mystical FREE WILL. NOTHING in nature could

    possibly account for the legal notion of free will. There is more to human


    sanity than merely knowing right from wrong. The part of  the brain associated

    with primal emotions -like motherly love- could be defective.

               I hope the poor woman IS found insane. Clearly society neglected her

    when she was most in need of help.

             The whole world of crime and punishment is based on mystical fictions

    like free will. Now I will get back to "Will " by G. Gordon Liddy.
