The only reasonable doubt is if she was suffering from some sort of mental illness.

To me, there was far too much deliberation in what she did. Putting the husband to bed and then methodically strangling the children shows far too much forethought.

I can believe post-partum depression and psych meds could leave someone seriously mentally ill. But then there would be signs of serious incapacitation beforehand like confabulation, seeing things, erratic behavior, etc.

New one.

Confabulation: memory error where a person unconsciously produces fabricated, distorted, or false memories without any intention to lie or deceive

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Confabulation

Not only were other signs missing (good point), it also takes time what she did. This wasn’t a heat of the moment nor accidental thing.

It’s the defenses job to fight the best they can and I think that was the ONLY way out for them.

Without re-reading everything, I think she even admitted killing the children. As a juror of even minimal intellect, you should see through this and not fall for a bunch of voodoo science and rhetoric.
