"My mother made it clear from the start, she wanted my sister to get help,"
"My sister is not a monster, and she's not disposable, she's also grieving,"
"The DA's office is moving forward with the criminal trail despite our wishes for my sister to be hospitalized,"
"The day prior she was hospitalized in a high speed chase in Sonoma because she thought she was in a video game,"
A San Rafael woman is scheduled for a murder trial next week for the alleged 2024 stabbing of her mother. The victim's family urges the Marin County District Attorney to pursue mental health treatment instead of criminal prosecution for the 30-year-old defendant. The family reports the defendant broadcast the attack live on social media and has a history of mental health crises, including hospitalization after a high-speed chase the day before the killing. The defendant has pleaded not guilty by reason of insanity. Activists and family members rallied outside the Marin County Courts calling for treatment and hospitalization.
