so i watch alot of criminally listed and there was a video titled "3 women who've killed their family' i decided to check the comments and to my surprise. These nutjobs we're making up excuses for the mothers actions, saying it's completely eligible as mothers have depression after giving birth? so does that mean that if a mother decided to commit a genocide and say she has depression after birth people would be like "eh understandable..." and there be some bbc three documentary painting her as the victim including the victims family members "ah well if they didnt have depression, i would have felt awful for the victims but in this case i side with the mother because she has depression."

I just want to know if this depression after birth contributes to a womens unlawful actions? Any studies to actually back that claim up would be great.
