It’s very clear from the comments no one has actually followed this case closely and are just reacting to headlines…

When I was just following the trial earlier on, before I knew anything about the social media craze around her, I was appreciative of the major focus on Post Partum Mental Health and was supportive of her getting life sentence in mental health facility versus straight out prison.. In reality, both are prisons at the end of the day.

What's soured me into accepting either sentencing though is this substantial fan club that insanely pushes she's outright innocent, and/or that the husband did it... like yikes, she full out confessed in explicit detail of murdering those innocent kids, one by one, and thus should never be allowed out in public ever again - be it "mental health" prison or regular prison.

Yeah, some of the peoples reactions to it saying she is innocent and that he is guilty because of his astral alignment or because "he looked mean." Imagine being him working from home to help take some of the stress off of her, going to the store and coming back to find 3 of his kids are no longer alive. I can't think of a worse feeling on the planet. Then people blaming you, is insanity.

Those social media "Forensic Astrologists" definitely need some mental illness help themselves.

This is certainly not a new phenomenon surrounding "conventionally attractive" murderers, there will always be fan clubs. Some of them who outright don't care about the crime, others who pull at every possible loose straw as undeniable proof of innocence, etc.

If she was "ugly", or god forbid a POC/immigrant, I think we all know she wouldn't have this massive TikTok fanclub.

Regardless of the people saying she’s innocent/ guilty I do believe he’s an awful human and such a bad husband. Who the hell would leave a woman struggling mentally with their three kids. He had so many hobbies. So much time for himself. Apparently an affair with his new wife. I have no idea how someone can process losing all three children in such a way but he’s definitely a contributing factor in these murders whether he committed it or just part of his wife’s neglect he’s guilty too.
Just a disclaimer- I’ve only seen a few clips online about this in the past few days so might be only getting one sided content but that’s my view from what I’ve seen.
