Holy poop! I found an article about similar cases:

Scroll down to "Shocking list of savagery by women in the U.S." to see a list of similar cases. The Marines are gentlemen compared to a deranged woman who wants to be a mother. The instinct is strong.
I remember the Oklahoma case well. Incredible that people can be so vicious.
" The Marines are gentlemen compared to a deranged woman who wants to be a mother."
As a woman who was psychologically and emotionally gutted by a religious adoption agency in the 1960s, and whose child was extracted from her by medical means so the baby could be given to another woman, I can relate to that remark.
Those of us who survived the savage child harvesting processes of the 1960s in order to provide babies for the adoption market often wonder why they simply didn't physically kill us. Many of us remark that during the depths of the recurrent clinical depressions that beset us after we lost our children, it would have been better for us to simply die, rather than face the future we did after the psychopathic social workers got done with us.
This story has activated a lot of additional pain for some of us who survived our "adoption" experiences. This poor murdered woman is, for us, an extremely powerful symbol of what was done to us. The incomprehensible crime committed aganst her body was commited against our souls, hearts and minds. The churches, adoption agencies and social worker associations have never acknowledged or apologized for their past behavior towards us.
I thank God her child was found alive and in good condition.
