I applaud the Bexar County District Attorney Susan Reed and her office in working with the defense attorney, Ed Camara, in resolving this matter and seeing that justice was served.

Mom who mutilated newborn enters plea
By Craig Kapitan - Express-News A San Antonio mother who gained national attention after killing and mutilating her newborn son was found not guilty by reason of insanity Thursday and ordered to stay at a maximum-security mental facility.
State District Judge Raymond Angelini ordered the indefinite confinement at the conclusion of a brief hearing in which prosecutors and the defense agreed to waive a jury trial for Otty Sanchez, 33, who was charged with capital murder.
