Yates Trial

NPR's Kathy Lohr reports from Houston on the opening of the trial of Andrea Yates, the woman accused of drowning her five children in a bathtub last summer. At issue is Yates mental state at the time, as her lawyers argue that her mental illness prevented her from knowing that what she was doing was wrong.
