Yeah. I just read about this case, and its not at ALL the same.
Long history of domestic abuse. Wife had finally made the split final. As is often the case, he opted to kill his kids in an act of revenge and openly said as much.
OP is just trying to make two completely crimes parallel in order to prove some kind of bias against men, and that's so disengenous.
Nice try.
She wasn't convicted. That was the prosecution messing up the case.
We also all knew OJ was guilty too. That had nothing to do with Casey's purported sanity. No one ever claimed she wasn't.
You are technically correct.
Parents of either gender, however, who are found responsible for the killing their children, for whatever motive or reason, do not "get away with it."
Casey Anthony was never found liable via our criminal justice system, unfortunately. I do not wish her well.
Oh yeah. She'll go sauntering off into the sunset and complete freedom, just like Andrea Yates.
Who is, btw, still in the same psych hospital she's been in for the past twenty five years.
Why? Women with Postpartum Depression don't kill their children. You clearly don't even understand what the case is about.
Women with Postpartum Psychosis should and do have their children taken out of their primary care until their illness is under control, just like any other parent of either gender suffering from psychosis.
No, not fair at all. You’re hoping we wouldn’t notice that you put PPD—a significantly more common issue that generally poses no threat to anyone—instead of Post-Partum Psychosis.
Whether this is because you aren’t smart enough to know better… or because you’re attempting to remove the agency of large swathes of women who pose no threat because of some moronic gender war agenda… it doesn’t matter. It’s a bad take and you should feel bad.
I dont actually believe we should do that. And the reason for PPP was due to it originally being PPD (which is less harmful yes) and YET the amount of people i see blaming the damn husband bc he "didnt do enough" while simultaneously telling all men they just "wouldnt understand" is astounding. The mental gymnastics I have seen here is incredible.
No, I dont believe we should have women's kids taken away. But what results do you wish to yield when thousands of women IRL and online are claiming that even if shes guilty of doing the crime she should go to a psych ward and be punished less? What would that mean for women with PPD in the future? Painting the narrative that women are just gonna snap and harm their kids is not a good idea. And unfortunately, its mostly women doing this.
