As investigators peeled back the layers of her deranged interrogation rants, they uncovered a woman consumed by delusions of demonic forces, grievances against the government, and a twisted sense of divine judgment, culminating in a plea deal that would forever leave the question of her sanity hanging over a family shattered by the unthinkable.
