Andrea Yates | Homicide or Legal Insanity? | Mental Health & Personality

This video answers the questions: Can I analyze the mental health and personality characteristics that may be at work in the Andrea Yates murder case? What are religious delusions and how do they factor into psychosis? Can I analyze the controversial testimony of Dr. Park Dietz in this case (specifically, the false testimony that may have led to Yates’ conviction)?
