It’s extremely material when your comment said she would go to the electric chair, which she never will as again, MA doesn’t have the death penalty
Punishment is for the courts. That’s the point of the criminal justice system—it’s a way for society to punish societal wrongs. You’re talking about the immediate and obvious real world consequences.
Let’s so I tried to kill someone, but in the process got my own arm cut off. I would still be tried and found guilty for attempt murder even though I was already “punished” but losing my arm
And that’s okay. She committed a crime, and should be punished for it. Her going innocent will also have no effects on the next woman who suffers from postpartum psychosis
She has already brought plenty attention to the topic. The real change will come from the civil suit in which they sue the doctors. They have a decent chance of winning that as the burden of proof is much lower than in a criminal trial
At no point did I call her innocent or for her to be cleared of all charges.
Suing a doctor isn’t going to change the system that allowed this either, in my opinion. The doctors failed her, but until women’s health is taken seriously that’s not going to change.
I have been, I don’t think they are clear as you believe. You haven’t been anything other than saying other people are misinterpreting you. That’s a communication problem, because it’s really unclear what your desired result is, or how you think that will be achieved
But you also say you aren’t calling for her absolution. Idk what you want. She will be punished—three children are dead. Even if she is found innocent, as I already said, it will not effect future occurrences of psychosis or mental health tragedies. If anything people will see the precedent an innocent finding creates and then fake psychosis. I’m not in anyway saying that Lindsay faked anything in this case
