      Apparently you’re not aware of the laws in MA concerning this specific example. MA laws significantly differ from most states in that if there is a possibility of mental issues the burden is placed on the state to prove the person is competent. In short the exact thing you think the legal system is tilted towards is what is NOT happening to her because of the potential for mental issues.
