I can offer one example of the type of defense used to defend the indefensible... At the sentencing for my son's father for him fatally injuring my child, his lawyer said, "well, if she'd had an abortion like he told her to..." And he just trailed his sentence off like that. The look on the judge's face.. Not impressed. Didn't honor plea deal--max sentence.
I remember sitting in the hospital after being told what had happened to my baby, and i thought, "okay so I'm going to need to kill him (dad), but we're in a hospital and there are police here and they'd save him, so I have to wait."
Obviously, I didn't. Just saying that's what my thoughts were. Very weird, almost eerie calm determination.
Eta I was not present when the attack on my child occurred. That may have ended differently.
I have no idea what I would do after the fact other than panic.
