Here's an article from today's Contra Costa Times with a good summary of the case against Huckaby:
http://www.contracostatimes.com/news/ci_15334742
excerpt:
In a plea deal, Huckaby took life in prison without parole. No death penalty, and no sex charges that could mean the end of contact with her daughter. At her sentencing, she apologized to Sandra's family and said she did not understand why she murdered.
Prosecutor Thomas Testa doesn't buy it. A piece of him wishes there had been a trial to tease out her motivation.
"She's a smart person," he said. "She writes well. She speaks well. She's in full possession of her faculties."
