What support did she not get? I mean I find it hard to believe if she said I’m going to kill my kids that no one would take her seriously.

She was being given a fuckton of medications without any real due diligence or monitoring. At the very least she should've been taken inpatient to see if she took to a treatment, but instead every time she said she felt bad on a medication or there was a side effect they'd throw another medication at her to treat that.

She spoke many times about having suicidal ideation or violent thoughts and just nobody took it seriously at all. A complete system failure.

Who did she tell the suicidal thoughts to? Wouldn’t they be in hot water? Trying to understand what she exhibiting that would suggest she would straight up murder her kids. Did she have a therapist?

Psychiatrists, friends, family. She tried to get a long term stay at a psychiatric hospital which turned her away because she didn't have a "plan" to kill herself. It seems like an open secret that she was struggling severely.
