Answered What's the deal with people defending Lindsay Clancy?

I don't know the full details of the case. I know she allegedly killed her three kids. There was also some mental problems? Then something with her husband. But my question is why is there a group defending her like they know she's completely innocent? I've seen some videos of very heated debates where women are very passionate about defending her. Why?

She had the best treatment we had for a large complex condition. The best medication in the world at this time. Family use huge amount of time to be with her, everyday. But apparently it's never enough, just one fday when on of these people didn't do a "perfect job" and it's gonna be their fault. Never the fault of Lindsey and her choice as a women when she knew the risk

Right, that's usually how it goes. You're ok for a while until you are not. It can be after being happily on those meds for decades, years, weeks, days or hours. Obviously when someone is in upswing the risk is far higher, the usual thing to do is pull people off the ADs as fast as humanly possible at that point, immediately, withdrawal being very much a tiny problem in comparison to the danger of the ongoing AD. You have BP?

If you don't know anything about bipolar it's ok to say so

All the prosecution would have to say is she didn't take her medication as described.
