'Trial' to determine Mary Todd Lincoln's sanity - PHOTOS

A 'trial' using modern laws and medicine is being held in Chicago to answer an old question: Was Mary Todd Lincoln insane? In 1875 Mary Todd Lincoln was committed to an asylum for a few months, but some say her son exaggerated Lincoln's behavior. Images courtesy of AP/GraphicsBank.
