Constance Fisher drowned her three children in a bathtub in 1954. Mental hospital. Declared better. Released. Husband stayed. They had three more kids. She drowned those three too. Same house. Same bathtub. Same excuse. Six dead children because a system treated a child killer like a patient who just needed time. That is the whole argument. Not “was she sad.” Not “did she hear voices.” What happens after you let them out, and who pays for it the second time. Lindsay Clancy strangled her three kids. People are already writing her a sympathy card and calling prison cruel. Cruel is three little bodies. Cruel is doing it once and getting a path back to freedom. Cruel is pretending history didn’t already run this experiment and lose six kids. Mental illness can explain how someone gets there. It does not give you a free murder. It does not entitle you to more children. And it does not require the rest of us to wait around and see if the next round dies too. If you kill your kids, you don’t get to be a mother again. You don’t get a soft landing and a second family. Life without parole. Lock the door. Stop experimenting on other people’s children and making excuses. Convict her. Convict those who harm children. Period.
