Gigi Jordan never denied killing Jude, her eight-year-old son. Her justification for giving the boy a lethal dose of drugs at a luxury midtown Manhattan hotel was, however, quite unusual. "She did it because she loved Jude.". Specifically, Jordan claimed that her first husband was planning to murder her, leaving Jude in the custody of her second husband, his father. This man, she was convinced,
would sexually abuse the boy, who suffers from autism, a developmental disorder that impairs one's ability to communicate.
