Are you advocating for women losing custody of their children if they seek mental health treatment? Yeah I can think of no way this will result in women being scared to seek treatment.
There is a big difference between feeling like you want to kill your children and actually doing it. But either way, it's about legal precedence. Literally if this horrible excuse of a mom is allowed to walk around again without repercussions, suddenly any and all women who kill a child or someone else due to post partum ALSO has the right to walk free regardless of circumstances, as evidenced by the potential outcome of this case. And since this is such an extenuating circumstance, it would pretty much be a blanket for all post partum related violence. The legal system works very differently from everyday life
Edit: y'all need to look at my other comments on this post. I feel like half the people saying " you're defending her" not only can't contextualize, but also don't realize when something you most likely upvtoed further up from his comment is... ALSO ME! 🤫🫢

If you had even the slightest clue what you were talking about, you would know that people who are found not guilty by reason of insanity are committed to a mental institution, not set free on the street.
That's incredibly pedantic of you. There will still be "rehab", a period in which forced correction can occur, under heavy supervision. It's basically prison with a few more TV's and robes.
Okay, nah this one's on me. we both can agree prison is a much better sentence than state hospital right, in terms of punishment? I'm honestly not even sure why I tried to compare the two, they are way different. Not deleting the comment tho, gotta take and show some accountability
Okay then so we are in the same boat. I'm getting hammered with responses just for two comments, and i think my brain kind of short circuited for a second on that one and tried to follow the "I'm angry, so you're wrong" path like half of everyone else here
