That's not to excuse any wrongdoing, any alleged criminality, if that is what comes out of it, of course.

But that's the context in which all of this has has happened.

Um and it's at least worth bearing in mind when we look at the full picture of this.

her to decide it.

Yeah, that's

And so just to look at one dimension to it as well, which is the there's a sort of outpouring of sympathy for Lindsay Clancy and the kind of the the m growing number of people, it seems like, who feel that at the very least she wasn't kind of culpable in the same way as one might be if she wasn't suffering from severe mental ill health as they claim.

There's also of course that kind of conspiratorial fringe which um basically rejects the idea that she mu

killed these children whatsoever, something that even her own defence aren't contesting.

Um, completely spurious allegations that the father Patrick, who discovered his three children killed, and apparently the 911 call, which hasn't been allowed to be released but was played in court, was so shocking that most of the jurors were in tears.

Many even the kind of very battle-hardened journalists who were in the room and you know

Covered a lot of very, very grim cases, were pretty shocked by the kind of prime screams that they heard.

There's there's this kind of group of people online which you now see.

Whenever you have a high-profile case like this, it's a kind of weird mix of kind of post-COVID conspiratorialism and sort of true crime fandom, which has created this level of uber cynicism in relation to cases like this.

They've just been openly claiming that he did it and using as proof the fact that he he remarried relatively quickly after the horrors in which he's he suffered, as proof of that.

So that's so there's that dimension to it.

The what the one thing that kind of struck me is even if we park that, because there's always gonna be some nuts out.

And the thing about

nutters in twenty first century is that they all have social media accounts and more of a platform than they used to have.

Is that even the kind of outsized level of sympathy for her or identification with her is to me quite striking and a little bit troubling.
