Might be an unpopular opinion around here but I don't think that after this sort of crime you're still a citizen. You've moved yourself outside of the accepted definition of citizen to something else. I'm not saying you no longer have any rights, of course you do. But I don't think you should be afforded citizens rights as we know them. Call it criminal rights or whatever you want but you're no longer a citizen if you choose so brazenly to murder defenceless babies in the way she did. And given that, I don't think criminals should be allowed to skip sentencing.
