The Distri Attorney finished speaking at 12.10 and Justice Tomp- kins then made his charge to the Jury. “I shall content myself with a briet statement of the law,” he said, “and will only summarize the evidence.” The Court then explained that while Mrs. Rogers was charged with murder in the first degree she might be found guilty of any of the four degrees of homicide. As to the In- sanity plea, the Court said it hinged on the question whether Mrs. Rogers was laboring under such a defect of reason at the time of the crime as not to know the nature and quality of her act One part of the charge which was considered favorable to the defense was the statement that when Mrs. Rogers offered her plea of insanity the burden of proof shifted to the Prosecution to show she was of “sound mind when she killed her children.” Justice Tompkins ordered that the evidence he considered without any prejudice against the woman because of her ieadee \y h Rogers.
