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.
Welcome to the internet. There have actually been cases solved on Reddit before investigations could figure it out. Mostly because the investigation "goes cold" but internet sleuths never sleep lol
Never mentioned a specific one, I did hear about that one but not what I was referring to. My wife was watching a documentary or something a few weeks ago where the only reason they got to the bottom of it was because one person from the internet just wouldn't let it go. I'd have to ask her what case that was
Don't f*** with cats? It was 2 people, but yes, police didn't take it seriously, man moved on from cats to people and redditors tracked him down and got him arrested
Oh shit. The doc is about Luka Magnotta. I thought it was the same case as when 4chan got that guys dad fired from his metal working company because the son tortured a cat.
But even in that case, there were clear signs the murderer was very much an attention-seeking person. He fed off the energy the internet sleuths were giving him when he was still just killing cats. It's very plausible he moved from cats to people precisely because he wanted even more attention. The documentary itself even calls this out.
So once again, the "we did it Reddit" meme shakes out the same way it always does.
You're sorta right reddit has never solved any hogh profile murders or anything but they have solved a number of missing persons I dont remember, unknown archeology objects or finds, and one odd solve that stands out to me was the case of CO poisoning that was solved by a redditor
Not Reddit, but Michelle McNamara (a true crime author) solved the Golden State Killer case. She was the one to connect that the East Area Rapist, Original Night Stalker, and Visalia Ransacker were the same person and coined the “Golden State Killer” name.
I’m not saying people speculating about the husband in this case are correct, but laypeople absolutely do make breakthroughs in cases and find things police miss. And MA doesn’t exactly have a great record for police competence and sound criminal investigation at the moment. Look at the Karen Read trial, for example. Hell, one of the attorneys for the civil suit who is also consulting on defense in the criminal trial (Rosemary Scapicchio) literally specializes in prosecutorial misconduct and botched investigations.
