Caleb's mentally challenged. He would probably go to an institution, not jail, or he would get the death sentence (Betty mentioned that). She was afraid she'd lose her child, so she did everything to protect him, but also to protect others from him. Therefore, she kept her locked up. She was not a great mother (mostly because of Matthew, not Caleb), but I do believe she was always acting in what she thought was the best interest of her family.
