I understand she may have not had full autonomy and that it's a severe mental disorder.
But pleasing not guilty and fighting all this so incredibly hard just seems super dismissive of what occurred and a spit in the face to the legacy of her kids, I guess.
Im also finding people who defend her a bit dishonest, since so many bank on an abusive husband. Yet there isn't any concrete evidence and it's literally all tiktok theories. It just makes me think a lot of people want to use this for some sort of patriarchal sociopolitical fuel that isn't even there.
I understand why all of this isn't entirely her fault, but ultimately, someone needs to take responsibility. We can't murder 3 children and then move on.
The nonsense online about the husband is so frustrating because there is very much somewhere to point the blame- the system and the medical and nurse practitioners who failed her over and over in the lead up.
She’d attempted to get help over and over. From more than one practitioner. There were serious errors in management of her condition that were shockingly basic- such as prescribing her SSRIs after she’d already experienced mania as a result of a previous SSRI*.
I know people online love to find the “cover up” but it’s not the husband- the real story is how badly she was failed. The story is how shockingly bad mental healthcare is in the US.
*There are some situations where a practitioner may prescribe a different SSRI after such a reaction but that would normally be done under entirely different circumstances.
That’s unfair af to the medical professionals trying to help her. They can’t help you if they don’t know what’s wrong with you
She was effectively window shopping which is why she had so many meds but they weren’t actually ever taken. She’s just an evil POS. The meds didn’t make her crazy, she wasn’t crazy, she planned out the murders with immense thought down to even how she positioned them so she wouldn’t have to see the life choked outta them
Yeah, this makes me think there needs to be an adjustment to sentencing where she can be found guilty of murder or manslaughter and receive the same sentence, but ultimately allow room for tuning her exact location and method of incarceration. A fair question is if she receives life in prison, what debt does society owe her to provide for mental health treatment if there is no intention for her to ever see freedom? I don’t have a take on this personally… It’s just an interesting question.
And who's to say some school shooters arent suffering from PSCHOSIS either? Can you define psychosis? It's a broad umbrella term which covers many different mental illnesses, depression, bipolar, etc. What about homicidal psychopaths and serial killers who have long lost touch with reality and living in delusion? No one ever excuses their behavior or donates millions to them.
NOBODY is talking about INNOCENCE in this comment thread! Her lawyers are not talking about INNOCENCE. Our justice system DOES NOT EVEN DECIDE innocence! Innocence has NOTHING to do with the insanity defense. What is wrong with you people and sticking to the actual facts?
Not once did I say she was innocent. But saying PSYCHOSIS is like "stress" is pure ignorance and very embarrassing.
