After she tried to kill herself by jumping in front of a New York City subway train, a woman has been charged with murdering her nine-year-old son. Police say 27-year-old Olivia Noel smothered her son the day after his birthday after "demons overtook her." She says the boy had been upset because a friend didn't make it to his family birthday dinner. Police Commissioner Raymond Kelly says Noel became "extremely remorseful" after the slaying at her Brooklyn home and jumped in front of a train. Police said Noel suffered a broken leg and severed fingers but never lost consciousness. She told officers at the scene, "I did something terrible to my son." people give your honest opinion on how you feel about this. this is very sad to me!

As a mother I cannot even begin to imagine ever doing anything like that to my children. There has to be something seriously wrong with her to even have those thoughts in her head.

It is said but I think the woman should have gone for some therapy to help her with issues beforehand. Mental illness is very serious and can lead to all sorts of tragedies.
