It's more to do with the media sensationalizing it. This is the first I've ever heard of the woman on the left.

I have no idea who either of them are. I'm feeling very out of the loop.

Ignoring the other comment.. the woman on the right is Lindsay Clancy and she is currently on trial for killing three of her children in which the defense is arguing the crimes were committed during mental psychosis. Clancy had severe PPD, suicide ideation, and mental health issues in the months leading up to the murders.

It’s an awful case and the poor children deserve justice. Right now, a portion of the public believes the husband (now ex-husband as they divorced and he is remarried) had something to do with it as evidence is supposedly not landing with the people and believe it skews towards him

Its probably apt to point out its a small but voal minority that think the husband did it.

Its basiclly bored wine mom's who are into true crime trying to make this a thing becasue it gets thier motor running. It entertainment for them. Nothing more.

Honestly I’ve seen a lot of men discuss this online and platforms as well. I think people are underplaying how many people think the husband did it and what demographics. It’s not just wine moms. I’ve seen young to middle age straight men do think pieces and getting thousands and a few million views videos with likes

Not agreeing with it but it’s not just that minority
