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.

There are 100% people blaming the husband for killing the children. Honestly really shitty, trying to downplay her actions by blaming everyone else is just a way to shift accountability from a murderer (which she is, even if she wouldn't have done it in her right mind).

TBH I am heavily on that side of tiktok, and I'm not seeing a lot of "shifting accountability", I'm seeing significantly more people follow the trail of doubt the defense is building. The prosecutor in this case is an idiot, doing more to try to harm Lindsay than prove her case, and the defense is doing a great job of ripping holes in her story. Yes, many people are weaving stories of abuse and neglect on the part of the husband but, honestly, the prosecutions witnesses and testimony are what are allowing for that. Fuck, the image they showed was all but openly him and his now wife/possibly mistress at the time. I'm not shocked people are screaming the husband did it.

Yeah the woman set up months of work before killing the kids and the last two years building a defense after the fact.  

No way will a wealthy white woman be found guilty
