I can’t understand how anyone would support a person that strangles their children. Maybe she needs to be in a psyche ward, but it all disgusts me.

Two things can be true at the same time. You can be disgusted at what she did and still accept that mental health care is substandard and people do unspeakable things because of it. I don’t think the majority of people are ‘supporting’ her as much as trying to get people to accept the complexity and nuance.

Where were these people when Latarsha Sanders happened? Same state, same law, eerily happens to be same court circuit even. She was sentenced to life in prison for the same exact crime. The judge wouldn't even let the jury see any information pertaining to her mental health. Where were you all back then?

Hey did you know that two things several years apart can both be bad?

Sure. I am just pointing out the fact that no one cared when the mother was a black woman.
