Texas cases of mothers accused of killing kids

While we have previously covered cases from Texas, amd most recenty the sad case of Alysha Green, we came across the following news story regarding a series of mothers who had turned on their children. It is our personal opinion and suspicion that closer inspection will reveal that these poor people were each plagued by the side effects of psychiatric drugs, or the horrors of the withdrawal symptoms of these drugs. As seen here.

In the latest Texas case of a mother who apparently turned on her children, Alysha Green is accused of dousing her three daughters with gasoline and setting them on fire last weekend. She faces a capital murder charge after her 3-year-old died, and she has been charged with two counts of serious injury to a child as her 5- and 7-year-old daughters remain hospitalized.

Here are some high-profile cases of Texas mothers who killed their children:

• Andrea Yates drowned her five children, ages 6 months to 7 years, in the bathtub of their Houston-area home in 2001.
  
  
• Dee Etta Perez shot her 10- and 9-year-old sons and 4-year-old daughter and wounded her estranged husband before killing herself in her Hudson Oaks home in 2002.
  
  
• Deanna Laney beat her 8- and 6-year-old sons to death with rocks and injured her 14-month-old son in East Texas in 2003.
  
  
• Lisa Ann Diaz drowned her 5- and 3-year-old daughters in a Plano bathtub in 2003.
  
  
• Dena Schlosser severed her 10-month-old daughter's arms with a kitchen knife in 2004 at the family's Plano apartment near Dallas.
  
  
• Gilberta Estrada hanged herself and her four children — ages 8 months to 5 years — in their Hudson Oaks mobile home in May. Only the youngest survived.
  
  
• Andrea Roberts shot her husband and 11- and 7-year-old children to death before killing herself last month in the Dallas suburb of Flower Mound.

As noted by the SSRI Stories Website regarding Alysha Green, and which may very well be true of the others ...

If this tragic case follows the usual scenario, then Alysha Green was given an antidepressant, became manic and/or psychotic, was diagnosed with bipolar disorder and then given an antipsychotic, a mood stabilizer, an antidepressant and an anti-anxiety medication.

Withdrawal from any one of these toxic substances can be a nightmare, so withdrawal from this kind of drug cocktail is beyond description. Almost 3% of the population in the U.S. is now diagnosed with bipolar disorder [Pharmaceutical Business Review: Nov. 21, 2006]. Consequently, the dangers to the public of the toxic drug cocktail for bipolar disorder, both while on it and while withdrawing from it, are enormous
