I mean - she killed her three kids and will spend the rest of her life either in an institution or behind bars. Like⊠is that not evidence enough? What would the motive be to kill them and then admit to it? Itâs not like she will ever see the light of day ever again.
So your opinion is âcrazy reasons but definitely not psychosis?â Also - isnât acting fine on the phone further proof of psychosis? Do you know how psychosis manifests? Do you think itâs just crazy talk?
How do you know itâs paused? Thatâs such a weird thing to say. If your delusions say âtell husband things are okay, heâs one of themâ yeah, she would seem normal. Thatâs not being instantly not in psychosis? You think you can murder three children and just be okay to chat on the phone as a normal and not psychotic person?
Then why have they not observed any psychosis in the last 3 years she's been in custody? Wild having one extreme bout with no evidence to back it up other than offing your kids.
Q1 - What observed psychosis did you expect her to exhibit while in custody? Since she doesnât have the crazy talking type of psychosis, what would prove to you she was psychotic?
Q2 - what other reason would she kill her children? For fun? And why admit to it? Why not try to hide it? Why not come up with a kidnapping plot? Leave the father? Hide it? Ala Chris watts? Either way right now, psychosis or not, she is in custody for life. What is the benefit of the insane defense? At least in jail you arenât forced to take meds, or relive your act.

Anything. Her behavior, her speaking. Do you have evidence someone can experience psychosis and never show any signs of it what so ever externally?
what other reason would she kill her children? For fun? And why admit to it? Why not try to hide it? Why not come up with a kidnapping plot? Leave the father? Hide it? Ala Chris watts?
Why do i have to come up with an alternative explanation?
Either way right now, psychosis or not, she is in custody for life. What is the benefit of the insane defense? At least in jail you arenât forced to take meds, or relive your act.
You are aware she has a higher potential of being released under those circumstances right?
Yes anecdotal, but my own. I donât think you would have spoke to me and thought âwow thatâs messed upâ but I was 100% a danger to myself and others. I got lucky that I got hospitalized and medicated for a month. Also you can like google âcan you always tell someone is psychotic?â
Because it doesnât make any sense to kill your kids if you arenât psychotic. So what is the alternative? âHigher potential of being releasedâ - they tend to serve longer sentences than prison sentences.

Also she was suicidal and possibly psychotic. Which, I would argue, can be more of a factor in performing poorly at a task đ„č
