The truth: three innocent children were strangled in their own home. Their mother has admitted she did it. A jury should not need days to decide whether that is murder. Mental illness is real and must be treated. It is not a free pass for taking the lives of a five-year-old, a three-year-old, and a baby. Sending her husband out of the house and then ending those lives is not something a functioning country can excuse.
Those children cannot speak for themselves. The justice system has to speak for them. Accountability should be swift, clear, and certain.
