Woman drowned children 'after sign from spider'
A woman who told investigators she drowned her two children after receiving a sign from a spider was found not guilty by reason of insanity and ordered to be committed to a psychiatric hospital for an indeterminate period.
Two defence psychiatrists and another testifying on behalf of prosecutors told a judge during an eight-hour hearing in Lamar, Colorado, that Rebekah Amaya was insane at the time of the October 2003 drownings.
