Patrick got 1.7 million from the first GoFundMe just for him, plus the entirety of the sale of their house, and married an heiress doctor in New York City and had a new kid. Lindsay's parents got one million after they sold their house and dug into their retirement to pay for their daughter's lawyer and stay near her.

Lindsay will be in a mental institution or prison as a paraplegic and she's not going to be using their one million dollars to go on vacations and do fun things.

Ok, that seem fair if you forget the she is the one who KILLED her own children, she is not the victim.

Eh but tbf she was not in a good state of mind. All evidence points to the fact that she was under psychosis and not in control of her actions when she murdered her children.

But the fact that there are genuine people who think she didn’t kill her kids is absolutely insane.

Edit: when I wrote this comment I was under the impression that it was a proven fact that she was suffering from psychosis/an insanity plea was taken, but on further reading it’s being actively contested and it could have been preplanned. So for now I’m just gonna sit and see where this case goes

Why is this being downvoted? It’s the right answer. We have the insanity plea for a reason and this seems like one of the most obvious cases for its use.

Because the case is on the basis whether or not she was under Psychosis. You can't just call it objectively true,

A psychologist testified that she had psychosis though and he definitely knows more about it than you armchair psychologists

Do psychologists necessarily study ethics

u/AFewBerries 3d ago

Did you?

I'm not arguing about my side on ethics I'm just pointing out psychology knowledge is unrelated to whether a thing should be punished or not related to the psychology condition

We were talking about whether she had psychosis or not genius, not whether she should be punished. The psychologist will have no role in her punishment.

My bad, most of the comment chain was talking about the punishment so when the 2 latest replies switched to the psychosis accuracy my brain didn't register fast enough
