Well, yes. That’s kind of how psychosis works. That’s why we need to actually understand postpartum psychosis and talk about the warning signs so people can identify it and get help before someone fucking dies. Making a joke out of it while pretending to care about preventing deaths is a contradiction.
the insanity defense exists to ensure that individuals are not criminally punished for acts committed during a severe mental illness when they cannot understand their actions or know that what they are doing is wrong, if you knew anything about postpartum psychosis you wouldn’t be saying she deserves jail time, you’d say she deserves treatment
hey smart guy, the point of that comment was to lock her up, i know they don’t treat insanity in a normal jail. there’s things such as context clues where when you take the entire text and break it down, it means something else. the kick there was i said “treat it in jail” and then the context was me mentioning her murdering her children. if you haven’t grasped it now, i believe the jail is where she belongs, not an institution! there’s ur english lesson for the day lmao
You are a fucking idiot who has no idea what mental illness is or how it works. You seem really angry about this. With your level of emotional intelligence and general intelligence I’d recommend you don’t have ANY children. You’re an inhumane person if you think locking away people in a cell without any treatment who are mentally ill is the answer to problems. The most positive outcome here is further research on postpartum psychosis. You want nothing positive from this.
yes, postpartum depression and psychosis played a major role in how the murders occurred, as she did reach out for help multiple times… but it doesn’t ignore the fact that she did, in-fact, murder her kids and admitted to doing it. she needs to be held accountable for what she did and serve her sentence rightfully so. though, this also shows that the healthcare system fucking sucks and doesn’t do its job beyond just prescribing someone pills and moving on with their day.
Nobody here thinks she shouldn’t be punished. However people with a brain say she needs to be institutionalized and studied to better understand this condition she will be locked away from society all the same but sending her to prison forever will only result in another tragedy either her hands or someone else’s.
honestly, that makes a lot more sense when you put it into that perspective. I agree, and I’m sorry if my comment came off as a bit insensitive. I do agree that in cases like this, clancy and those with a similar case should be institutionalized for better treatment so that we can better understand postpartum psychosis related cases. my perspective came from those who were constantly downplaying the situation, and saying that “she didn’t do it.”
take a breather. they’re not saying that lindsay, as a murderer, shouldn’t be held accountable. she needs to be, but herself and many others going through postpartum related issues need to be studied better to help prevent more cases like this from occurring. clancy isn’t the first case of someone committing a crime due to the influence of postpartum psychosis, and it’s heartbreaking for the family and children affected, but it also shows how the healthcare system doesn’t take these issues—
Yes the psychologist on the prosecution team said this and the 2 on the defense team said differently. This doesn’t change the fact that more than 1 person needs to be prosecuted for this tragedy. If she’s found to be insane she’s going away if she’s found to be criminally responsible she’s going away. If she’s admitted to a hospital and found to be not insane she’s going to end up in prison anyway. This proves nothing currently 1 person from the prosecution vs 2 from the defense.
It’s just the fact that you’re like extra fixated on Clancy like everyone else is rn though. Where was all the uproar over what Alan Michael Smith, or Ronald H Williams, or Kristopher Karolkiewicz, did to their families? All men who killed their whole family and then themselves just in the last 3 months alone. But everyone wants to talk about Clancy like “I hope that monstrous bitch gets the chair and rots in hell!!!” You have a double standard.
Pew Research is not just some sort of post it’s a nonpartisan "fact tank" that provides data and information on public opinion, social issues, and demographic trends. It is widely considered a highly reliable, objective, and nonpartisan source for data and public opinion polling. You fucking moron
and again, it didn’t prove your point smart guy. you showed something that saying a lot of people graduate school with liberal views, not that calling someone a liberal or conservative makes them dumber. therefore i’ll take this as a win in my book and ignore anything else you have to say bc i know you talking to the void is gonna make you more mad than anything else i can do!
Labeling your comments/attitude as “trolling” doesn’t make it less embarrassing. If your idea of entertainment is deliberately pissing strangers off online so they’ll keep arguing with you, that’s genuinely pitiful. There are approximately a million better things you could be doing with your time.
Okay, I’ll be the adult here then. You are choosing to be ignorant by pretending this case matters to you or affects you at all, and then you turn a blind eye when it suits you, so you clearly don’t even actually care about what has happened or the kids that died. Also “Wah wahh it’s not my fault because the news is only reporting on her! And my sensitive baby mind can’t handle all the scary news!” Is bullcrap. Grow tf up, be more aware, and learn to not be sexist.
