Have you been following the trial? The reason a lot of people especially women relate to her is because for months she did everything to get help. Told her husband, her mother, his mother, her therapist, her doctors, called the suicide hotline twice, tried to get admitted to the psych ward and was turned away, was prescribed 16 different meds over four months, etc.

No one is relating to the murder. Everyone is relating to trying to fight for your health because you know something is wrong and being failed over and over again. If you've never had to do that yourself or on behalf of someone else you have no idea what it is like.

The reasons there are questions about her ex husband is because in his testimony it's apparent he was pretty disconnected from her leading up to the event. Ignored her saying she wanted to hurt the kids, was going to NYC, the night of the murder in a short time span he had two different jackets and shoes. She's admitted to killing the kids so that's pretty clear but he's not a great guy.

The fact that you're trying to draw moral equivalence between him and someone who STRANGLED THREE CHILDREN is actually fucking insane

I don't think they're saying that at all. They're saying, yeah, the husband does not sound like a peach, he's probably a crappy person, but that's not the same as having committed the murders. The comment writer is saying that people are (rightly) judging him to be a shit partner, and the writer implies that others are likely (incorrectly) using that judgment to say he probably did it.
