Dr. Curtis Woods wrote in his report for the court that Sarmiento had a history of resisting oral medication and, at one point, was prescribed monthly drug injections. But she didn't get the shot a month before the killing and did not take other drugs sent home with her by a doctor.

So she was prescribed medications to treat her condition, but refused to take them? At the very least she's guilty of criminal negligence, if not murder.
