You can read the article about the difficulties of finding placement for her at that time, but I thought this was the most interesting statement:
"In a rare concurrence, prosecuting and defense attorneys agreed that Cushing was not guilty by reason of insanity of killing her daughters, ages 8 and 4. She was remanded to Patton State Hospital in February, 1992."
