Child killer trial inspired 'Desperate Housewives'
Indo-Asian News Service
London, Aug 24 (IANS) The TV coverage of the trial of a Texan
woman, accused of attempting to drown her five children, inspired
writer Marc Cherry to create the hit TV
show "Desperate Housewives".
According to contactmusic.com, Cherry recalls the harrowing
trial of Yates, who was found not guilty on the grounds of
insanity. It was her second murder trial for the
bathtub drowning of her young children.
.
Cherry said: "I was watching this horrific tale on TV and I
turned to my mother and I said, 'Gosh, can you imagine a woman
being so desperate that she would hurt her own
children?' "My mother took her cigarette out of her mouth and
said, 'Yeah, I've been there.'"
