“'That's impossible. She works, she holds a job,' said Amy Carey. She had no idea why her sister would be in Washington. 'She wouldn't be in DC. She was just in Connecticut two days ago; I spoke to her … I don't know what's happening.'”

"That's impossible"? Then how did it happen?
"She works, she holds a job"? What does that have to do with the price of bread?
"She wouldn't be in DC. She was just in Connecticut two days ago; I spoke to her"? Everyone knows it is not possible to get from Connecticut to DC in two days, right?
"I don't know what's happening." Finally; there you have the real tragedy. How could Miriam Carey's own sister, who spoke to her just two days before in Connecticut, not realize that Miriam had flipped her lid? How could Miriam's family not realize that she had become a mortal danger, not only to herself but also to her young child?
It is very sad that the child had lost her mother, but this mother almost got her child killed. It is not a tragedy for the child; it's a blessing that the child survived.
Some synonyms for "tragic" are: "disastrous", "calamitous", "catastrophic", "cataclysmic". But "crazy" is not one of them.
