Mary's husband is to blame because he inflicted pain upon someone who's main focus in life is to care for and love him. He broke her heart so she acted irrationally. She did not meant to kill him, yet she let her body get the best of her. Her actions were not warranted, but she acted out of heart break.

I think Mary did not mean to kill her husband but she also was not mad that she did. Her actions throughout the story are confusing because when it first happens she doesn't really know what is going on then later it all kind of hits her. But in the end when she giggles at the people for eating the lamb, she knows she is safe and she does not feel remorse.

I think Mary's husband is to blame just because it sounded like he was leaving her especially in these hard times when she is pregnant! In the beginning, I do not think her plan was to kill her husband but once he told her the news and he was going out, she lost it. Her actions were justified as her anger came out from hitting him with the lamb leg.

Mary's husband is to blame for what happened. Mary should not have gone that far but he caused pain to Mary and told he he was leaving her. I don't think Mary meant to kill her husband I think she was acting irrational in a time of distress. Even though it was Mary's husbands fault, I don't think her actions were warranted. He did cause suffering to her but that is no need to kill.

Honestly yes I do think Mary's husband is to blame. I do not think Mary really meant to kill her husband, that it was just something she did out of anger, and ended out not how she intended
it to.

Mary is not to blame because she did nothing wrong in the relationship, it was her husband who took her for granted and pushed her over the edge. I do not think Mary intentionally meant to kill her husband because when she came back from the store, she started crying and she was not acting. Her actions were not warranted. She did go to jail for her crime or actions.

I think that her husband was definitely part of the reason of her killing him. But there is a little suspicion that she was mean to kill him because the way he treated her was building up in her and she couldn't take it anymore and she saw a way to finally get rid of that pain.

I think that Mary's husband deserved his death because he was  mistreating his wife, and was planning on leaving her while she is pregnant with his child. I think that Mary did not want to hurt her husband I think she was just angry and in shook, so she thought it was her only option.
