San Fran Mom Pleads Not Guilty

LaShaun Harris stood silent, bowing her head while her attorney entered a plea of Not Guilty for her today in a San Francisco Superior court room. She is being charged with murder and assault in the drowning deaths of her 3 children, ages 6 yrs, 2 1/2 yrs and 16 months, respectively.
She was arrested Wednesday, after witnesses reportedly saw her walk to the end of a 700 foot-long pier and throw her children into the San Francisco Bay. The body of the 2 1/2 year old was found a two miles from the pier a short time after her arrest. The bodies of the other two children have yet to be found.
LaShaun has a history of schitzophrenia and other mental problems, and is currently being held in a hospital-type facility in a safety cell where she is under a suicide watch. If she is convicted of this crime, she would be eligible for the death penalty under California law.
