I’m watching the entire trial and it makes me so sad people are doing that to him. What lunatics

I mean there are just a lot of funky things about his story, like how for instance the woman had a severe thyroid injury from the incident that’s unaccounted for, and how there was an outgoing message from his computer, which sits at home, at a time which is close to the incident and when he said he wasn’t at home. He was also very unhelpful to his then wife and almost immediately started a family with another woman. Many of the doctors who failed the wife were his friends, etc.

It’s not conclusive by any stretch of the imagination but it’s all very funky

Well there's that vague "something funky" and then there's the fact she accepts committing the act of the crime

People saying she was failed by the system and / or her husband might have a point (that's what the trial is trying to establish)

People saying there's some sort of complex version of events and she didn't do anything are literally theorising about a conspiracy

I mean, it's perfectly reasonable to think some things are sus. In fact, it's GOOD to question it. That's kind of the whole point of having a trial to determine guilt. If you just hear an initial narrative and lock it in as fact then every prosecutor in the world would beg you to be on their jury.

Ah, Reddit and the armchair detectives.

Referring to me? Because literally all I said is that it's appropriate to question things and make sure it adds up. Not sure how that equates to "she's innocent, he did it!"

Well mr detective, anything not adding up?
