Otty Sanchez ka naam 2009 mein ek bhayanak jurm ke baad surkhiyaan mein aaya tha, jab unhone apne navjat putr, Scott Wesley Buchholz-Sanchez, ka hatya kiya tha. Is ghatna ke baad, unhe paagalpan ke aadhar par dosh-mukt kar diya gaya tha aur North Texas State Hospital ke Vernon facility mein bharti kiya gaya tha, jo ek maximum-suraksha wala mansik aspatal hai. Tab se, unki mansik sthiti ka varshik samiksha hota hai, lekin adhikariyon ka maanna hai ki unka kabhi riha hona sambhav nahi hai.
Sanchez ko schizophrenia aur postpartum psychosis ka nidan hua tha, aur unhone police ko bataya tha ki unhe shaitaan ne apne bachche ko maarne ke liye kaha tha. Unhone apne shishu ka sir kaat diya tha aur shareer ke kuch hisson ko kha liya tha, jo is ghatna ko aur bhi bhayanak banata hai.
Is ghatna ke baad, unhe North Texas State Hospital ke Vernon facility mein bharti kiya gaya, jo ek maximum-suraksha wala mansik aspatal hai. Wahan, unki mansik sthiti ka varshik samiksha hota hai, lekin adhikariyon ka maanna hai ki unka kabhi riha hona sambhav nahi hai.
Aaj, Otty Sanchez apne aparadh ke liye is maximum-suraksha wale mansik aspatal mein hain, aur unka riha hona sambhav nahi lagta. Unka jeevan aur unki kahani ek bhayanak yaad dilati hai ki kaise mansik bimariyon ka asar vyakti aur samaj par pad sakta hai, aur is baat ki mahatta ko darshata hai ki samay par sahi upchar aur samarthan kitna aavashyak hai.
