I’m not sure what you mean. That makes even less sense. He killed her. It would be even weirder if he managed to restrain her, and then not get any kind of help for his kids, and - - then - cold bloodedly kill his wife.
If he restrained her, that would be the perfect time to call 911 for an ambulance! Scream, run to the neighbors with baby Celeste in his arms, begging for help. Something. Anything!
It makes no sense and I know of no precedent for such a story.
You would save your kids. That would be your number one goal. I’m not sure group psychosis is a proven phenomen and it’s really hard to believe they both went insane at the same time.
From his confession, she was “actively strangling” Celeste.
He could have saved her. At least given it a red hot go. And he didn’t,
No calls to 911 were made. The neighbors heard nothing,
