Can someone give me the run down on the Lindsay Clancy case?

Husband makes $400 thousand a year. She had doctors she shopped for who didn’t know about one another. She had a maid and a nanny to help with the kids as well as the mother in law. She was in the mental hospital days before. Said she felt fine and checked herself out.

Is she nuts or just evil I have no idea. The support she is getting however is from millions of women who aren’t getting the help they need after becoming mothers

It is controversial because she is appealing to mentql instability, but she specifically planned the murders. The aspect of planning means a level of control.

When you evaluate a patient for the ability to be held accountable, it is not about diagnosis of mental illness. It is about assessing whether or not the mental illness had overlapping power in their decision making skills. Two seperate parameters.

I personally believe her ex. But more than that, I read her public medical information and believe her doctors were overwhelming responsible for what happened. She was prescribed and was taking more than 8 serious medications with sever side effects..side effects including thoughts of harming her kids which were reported by her husband way before the crime and neglected.

This medical negligence and recklessness.

She will be locked for life regardless of the verdict.

The doctors? Nope.

Somehow you overlooked the most crucial fact in this case...she strangled her 3 children to death, one after the other.

That's why she is being tried. Not because she suffered from post partum depression.

I dont know too much about her case in particular, but pnd is serious and so many gp through it without even knowing, let alone being supported. It's shocking that in this day and age it's not highlighted more and still taboo. However Im also shocked a woman gets cut in half and has a baby pulled out and then given a mild paracetamol to get over the pain.
