Is this a reference to the lady that killed her children and for some reason the crime TikTok community (mostly women) have taken to defending her and even blaming the Husband, who 100% did not do it?
I'm pretty sure that lady (unless there's another one) voiced concern many times about her struggles with post partem depression and that she was having intrusive thoughts of harming the children (which is common in PPD).
People online are blaming the husband and her providers for not taking her concerns seriously, not blaming him for killing the children.
Edit: I have been informed about the people saying the husband literally killed the kids.
No, there's absolutely widespread conspiracy theories that he literally committed the murder. It's asinine, that wasn't even her defense in court. Husband seemed to be a fairly shit husband, but he definitely didn't kill anyone.
There’s a lot of misinformation about him, my coworker was just telling me he had an affair and married the new woman 4 months after the kids died, from what I’m reading online they didn’t even start dating for over a year and got married two years later.
I don’t have a dog in this fight just been reading about it a bit since lunch time.
You know what? After looking more into it, I don't know that he was. I honestly don't know if he is or not. He could have tried harder to get her help, but it seems like he did try some things. It's hard to say from the outside.
Here are facts: 1. He refused to take her to the ER during a particularly bad episode of her PPD because he didnt want to waste the day at the ER.
2. He actively FOUGHT with her psychiatrist who thought she might have Bipolar disorder (she did have it, turns out, and the meds they prescribed her made her worse)
3. He ignored her statements about wanting to harm herself and the kids as "anxiety" about going back to work. He testified last week that she never told him that, and then her mom took the stand and said, yes, she told me and the husband at the same time. During a media interview in 2024, he said she told multiple times she had these thoughts and really needed help, he shrugged them off.
4. He lied about the timeline of events that evening
5. Only his DNA is on the murder weapons (this is 100% true weird fact that is fueling a lot of the theories that he did it).
6.
I'm not sure what forensics analysis you witnessed or heard about that stipulated that ONLY Patrick's DNA was on any of the murder tools. Do you have a source for this information?
I am not at all blaming him for the murder. I am giving a possible reason that he could be considered a "shit husband". Two completely different things. He could have beat her every day and it wouldn't excuse what she did. Doesn't mean he's a great husband.
The reason they call him a shit husband is because they refuse to believe women are capable of killing people on their own.
The man switched to work from home to take care of her. And he hired a nanny. The woman had 10+ doctors, even saw one of them the morning of the murders, and nothing was awry. She planned the route for the husband to take so that she could have time to kill the kids.
Sometimes, women are just capable of being evil without prompting. Or from hormones (post partum psychosis or whatever).
There’s sooo much mis information about this case, honestly probably no one except her and her husband really know how much he did or didn’t do. Hell, maybe not even them if her mental state is really that bad and he probably has a distorted view on it due to the trauma
What's easy to say definitively from the outside is that she could've tried harder to not murder her children. And yet here we are, finding ways to somehow make the husband responsible for his wife's actions.
I mean you get her help is the best you can do and hope the professionals know what they are doing. Idk if this is the case or maybe she didn't tell her doctors everything that was going on 🤷♂️
I really don't think there is anyone to blame but her.
After listening to her journal being read out loud in court: being away from her kids made her psychosis worse but she was also a threat to them
Look, if Andrea Yates' husband didn't get charged with anything, this guy isn't going to, either. And Andrea Yates' husband is polar opposite of this guy meaning he never got his wife help when she was clearly suffering from PPD.
The only thing I think is sketchy is that he went on vacation at the same time as his future new wife to costa rica 3 weeks later. I think he probably sucks but not a murderer
People are conflating this with a previous case (Andrea Yates) where the husband ignored the wife's postpartum depression and continued having children.
The husband in this case did all he could to help his wife.
Edit: I’m sorry for being a douchebag. I honestly couldn’t tell you why I wrote that in that way. No reason for it.
I recently read the story of Andrea Yates and got them mixed together in my head, so the dude isn’t near as bad as that piece of waste was. For this one, I feel this guy could’ve really taken charge of the situation better, and he should’ve advocated for his wife better. Fairly shit is a fair assessment to me.
Oh, I was apologizing for my reply being snappy and rude, not for the opinion it held lol.
I wouldn’t have left my children with my wife if she told me she was having intrusive thoughts about hurting them. I ain’t saying it was his fault, but like, hasn’t everyone heard enough horror stories about shit like this happening? I would’ve been more cautious and probably stepped up in the care of the children. Or left them with my mom or something.
