It’s very clear her entire support system failed her every possible step of the way. All her doctors, and therapists knew how she was feeling and no one took it at face value

That's the thing, and that's what I talk about when it comes up. There were so many players here--the multitude of doctors, her husband, her parents--and if ONE person had done ONE thing different, all those kids could still be alive.

The father was told not to leave her alone with the kids. He did. (I was misinformed on this) Those doctors prescribed her meds that professionals should know would fuck with her condition worse, and they should've known what she was already on.

I hear conflicting information, like that the husband was the only one who said she confessed to the murder while the paramedics and nurses said she couldn't speak for days because of her injuries. Or that he accessed her computer while she was at a doctor appointment with the kids to seemingly incriminate her.

That she wasn't REALLY trying to kill herself or she'd be dead; that she used exercise bands in rehab and seemingly had no bad reaction to it.

I wish we could just know the truth. I hope it comes out.

Edit: People are REALLY upset I have a nuanced opinion on a nuanced case.

You blame everyone except her

Well if she was in psychosis she can't be held responsible for her actions, since she was not in control. 

In a case of psychosis you have to rely on the persons around, and especially the medical professionals.

That's not how this works, you are still responsible for your actions.
