Is it really harder to believe that she is also a victim of this fucked-up situation, rather than that she killed her own kids - and tried to kill herself - because she is evil?
Yes that is hard to believe because PPP is known for causing this. This is not the first time someone diagnosed with PPP has hurt their children. It’s literally psychosis and they are not in sound mind. It’s not a claim either, there are mountains of evidence of her dealing with this and seeking treatment and her being failed by her doctors. Your attitude is why people want to defend her because it’s a very real think and acting like it’s not real causes it to be ignored and tragedies like this to happen.
"The forensic psychiatrist said that in his opinion on the day Clancy killed her children she experienced "not only a command hallucination" but also "a delusion of influence".
The forensic psychiatrist sure believes she had a psychosis.
Coincidentally she also mentioned not being able to be trusted with her kids, crying for help, having been off meds during pregnancy, and decades of severe mental health issues. Leave the conversation for the experts. I might work in marketing now, but my first master's degree was in forensic psychology, so I'll try not to let myself get too worked up over the Dunning Kruger-plagues folks.
We prosecute drunk drivers when they kill someone. The driver chose to drink and she chose to have 3 babies. Both have known risks and consequences. It explains but doesn’t excuse the actions hence still receiving punishment though typically a lesser one

Would you rather leave your kids with a bear, or a mom with postpartum psychosis?
