"More like she wanted to push the victim towards the line but not necessarily push the victim over it, imo."It's interesting that the evidence presented doesn't include an account by Dr j that the mute button was visually checked and found to be activated. By marynnu account and common sense it would seem that's an easy thing to check and notice. How much of this case rests on what the jury think of that info?
I find it highly suspect tbh. 25 weeks and very fragile baby, would you really wait for a "self correction"? It's also true that we see allot of indirect actions in her prior convictions where she didn't utilise direct and aggressive action such as smothering or something that quite clearly would kill. Aside seemingly from baby e and the ae cases. More like she wanted to push the victim towards the line but not necessarily push the victim over it, imo.
Pushing fragile premature babies 'to the line' where they need a crash cart and a team of first responders to save them?
That may seem 'indirect' and not aggressive enough to outright kill them however without that code alarm reaction to take action to save them, they'd ALL be dead.
Many of the victims required several shots of adrenaline and many minutes of resuscitation, oxygen and emergency treatment in order to stay alive. Many ended up with lifelong deficits and trauma.
I don't think it is any less serious of a crime to push a victim to the line---make them unresponsive and near death---than to push them over the line. IMO
