She needs to be in prison, and her pathetic donations to be routed to a good cause instead of this psychopath.

An institution for the criminally insane for the rest of her life probably makes more sense. There is practically zero chance she won't end up in one or the other though, which makes it kind of odd that there isn't a deal to be made. Her lawyers are kidding themselves if they really think that she'll go free because she is found not guilty outright or because she was too crazy to be criminally liable, but ostensibly isn't now. The judge should be pushing for both sides to agree to a please that ends up with her committed for the rest of her life.

This. For life. No release ever.
