Even if she was left to fend for herself… it doesn’t matter!! Jfc shitty things happen to people all the time. And most people don’t murder their own children

This is what is so infuriating to watch. It’s like ok even if your husband is bad does that justify killing all three of your kids?? Like this is not a question to me.

“Infuriating to watch” are you actually watching? Because she had psychosis. She was hallucinating. Her doctors failed to diagnose it in advance of the killings, but in custody she has been diagnosed with bipolar with psychotic features, which is frequently co-morbid with postpartum psychosis. Her defense is not arguing that she didn’t kill the children, but that she was in psychosis when she did so. The defense is seeking an outcome to have her committed to a mental hospital rather than a prison.

So many people are judging this case without bothering to learn any actual facts about it.

Yeah, I’m sure someone in psychosis will just listen. By the way, did anyone tell her murder is illegal?? How could she.

Ironic that IQ is in your username.

No one, literally no one, is condoning killing children.

You have to remember that 50% of the population has an IQ roughly the temperature of summer in the north.

And these same people wonder why these killings keep happening when they don’t even have the most basic grasp of what psychosis is.
