Baekeland had an enmeshed, co-dependent and allegedly incestuous relationship with her homosexual son, Antony. Baekeland attempted to "fix" her son by having prostitutes take him to bed; after this failed, Baekeland was alleged to have convinced or coerced her son into sexual intercourse. Though Antony displayed signs of schizophrenia with paranoid tendencies, his father refused to allow him to be treated by psychiatrists, whom he believed were "professionally amoral".
Her son's erratic behavior caused concern among family friends, and over the years, the two had several threatening arguments involving knives. After the murder, Antony was institutionalized at Broadmoor Hospital until, after much urging by a group of his friends, he was released in July 21, 1980.
He relocated to New York City to live with his grandmother, stabbing but not killing her less than a week later. He was sent to Rikers Island and was suffocated with a plastic bag on March 20, 1981; it is not known if his death was a suicide or murder.

Savage Grace is one gutpunch of a movie: The final scene leading up to the murder will stay with you for years. The two start out talking about a rather dull shopping trip, she climbs on top of him and casually humps him, he goes into the kitchen and completely decompensates, she follows him in there and he viciously stabs her.
I'm not a big Eddie Redmayne fan, but he and Julianne Moore are both devastating in the movie.
