We had a case sort of like that in the UK a few years back and it was perhaps the only one of these cases where I actually felt bad for the mother. Her son was severely autistic and apparently she had been having real trouble coping with the day to day of caring for him. She had made it known to authorities, etc that she needed help and she didn't get what she needed. So, she held her son in her arms and jumped off a bridge and killed them both. A real reminder that no matter how crap my days can be they aren't that bad.
