DALLAS (AP) The Texas woman accused of sending ricin-laced letters to President Barack Obama and New York Mayor Michael Bloomberg has given birth prematurely to a baby boy while in custody.
Attorneys for Shannon Guess Richardson and husband Nathan say she gave birth July 4 to a boy named Brody. Shannon Richardson's attorney, Tonda Curry, says the baby faces serious medical issues due to the premature birth and remains hospitalized.
John Delk, Nathan Richardson's attorney, says the boy weighed less than 2 pounds at birth and was four months premature.
A federal affidavit alleges Shannon Richardson contacted authorities to try to implicate her husband in the ricin letters, before being arrested herself on June 7.

Obviously, making ricin while pregnant was a poor decision on the part of the mother based upon the premature delivery.

She loves her guns so insanely that she believed the idiots when they said PBO and Bloomberg were coming to take them away Oh Noes! Instead it was she who was taken away.
Sad sad sad.
