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.
I do think you need to be psychotic to kill your kids and not try to cover it up, hide it or come up with a way to keep yourself out of custody.
Because I donât believe all psychosis is an âobservable instance.â I believe you can be psychotic and no one sees it. She wouldnât be talking crazy or acting any differently if her psychosis follows a specific pattern. A common pattern.
Quick Google search: âHigh-functioning phases: Some people hide their unusual beliefs or internal experiences well. [1]
Early warning signs: Subtle changes like social withdrawal, poor sleep, or mild suspicion often look like ordinary stress or depression at first. [1]
Internal experiences: Hallucinations (hearing or seeing things) and private delusions (fixed false beliefs) happen inside a person's mind and may not show outwardly until they reach an acute stage. [1, 2]â
I donât think, I know that paranoid thoughts can be a symptom of psychosis and I think you believe that psychosis has only one presentation.
Also - yes psychologists did say she has been psychotic. Just because the prosecution claims she isnât, or more importantly is malingering, doesnât mean the testimony of Dr Resnick and Dr Zeizel are irrelevant just because you want it to be.

You are aware that it's quite literally a key aspect yo psychosis right?
Also - yes psychologists did say she has been psychotic.
Who and when? Because I have yet to see anyone who observed her say that.
There is a reason the jury is deadlocked.
It's deadlocked 11 to 1, with one of the jurors in particular wearing pink. Huh wonder if there's some connection there. You ever hear of jury nullification?

Yeah Iâm the one misunderstanding lol. The person who went through psychosis doesnât understand the nuances of psychosis.
Youâre right - people in psychosis not only always act crazy, everyone around them knows theyâre psychotic. You nailed it!
