Postpartum psychosis is definitely in large part the reason she killed the kids. However, that’s not what the insanity defense is under law anywhere except NH. The MA test follows the MPC. She had to have not comprehended the wrongfulness or not been able to control her actions. I don’t think that test is met. Guilty. (M)

She would not be free if she’s found not guilty by reason of insanity. Y’all act like her ass is going to walk (or wheel) out of that courthouse Scot free. That’s not how it works.

Don’t know the whole context very well so could be insanity or smth but as a blissfully ignored person NOT on her jury I’ll say 1/2°

She did not have psychosis unless she had the most stand out non clinically presenting case in the whole world. How does she hear it for the exact amount of time it happened but never before and never since? She had enough werewithal to kill each child methodically, buy lemonade in advance to take the drugs, then when found did not tell anyone she had killed her children or try to save them in any way despite said psychosis supposedly ending according to her and her civil case …

no one thinks that lol but yes you typically get released much much faster than you would from prison, so she would likely be free in a few years
