Alabama Woman 'Crucifies' Herself in Protest Over Jailed Son's Care Posted: 3 months ago by bingo
A Decatur woman clung to a wooden cross set atop a backyard fence for hours in the summer heat to protest what she called the mistreatment of her son, who is being held in the city jail.
A poster placed on the fence in Maria Thornton's yard during Wednesday's protest declared she wouldn't eat, drink or come down from the cross until her son received help.

She didn't seem very committed to her protest, ending it 2 hours after it began because some policemen coaxed her down. lame

It's probably that kind of behavior on her part that led to his mental illness.
(No mental illness bashing meant, I assure you. My child and myself both are currently under care of a psychiatrist, thank you very much).

Maternal instinct. Some mothers will do anything to help their children. No matter how irrational it may seem to the rest of the world.
I could totally see my mother doing something to this effect.
