Here is CDs next court appearance: Chad Doerman, 32, is led into Judge Richard P. Ferenc’s Clermont County Common Pleas courtroom, Wednesday, July 5, 2023. It was the first preliminary hearing since he was indicted on 21 counts involving the shooting deaths of his three young sons, ages, 3, 4...

I thought some kind of court proceeding was scheduled in September. Do we know when it is and what it is for?

A snippet from the article. Zuranolone is a neuroactive steroid — a synthetic hormone that gets synthesized in the brain and helps regulate mood and behavior. The drug acts on GABA receptors, chemical messengers thought to play a role in regulating fear, anxiety and stress. Studies have found...

Don't forget she had to pack up and move to a new country. There was also an isolation period right before the move at Graham’s mother's. That's ALOT of changes and isolation. Lauren also had severe anxiety.

I think that will be Sunday around 6pm ET. Hope the juror's illness is not severe.

Why would a six year old steal $80? Kids that age don't understand money. The roommate must have put the boy up to it. But let's beat the six year because he can't fight back. Where was the roommate at when all of this was going on?

It is interesting. We are only reading the trial (as far as I know there is no audio). We cannot hear the inflections on the voices which also give great info. I can kind of see both sides. Right now I'm leaning towards PPD causing an altruistic infanticide. Like you, glad I don't have to...

From the trial where the prosecution is questioning their chosen psychiatrist Dr. Monasterio. This testimony is from the day of the murders. When she collected the twins from preschool, Karla threw a tantrum and Graham put on his headphones and went to the bedroom, which she saw as him...

You are correct. I do believe doctors in NZ are allowed to write their own prescriptions. Lauren, as you pointed out, would not have been eligible, however. I have read she had been on and off antidepressants recently and became confused. Thanks for clearing that up.

Right now we know she had NO support system. Her mother told her family not to bring up Lauren’s mental health. She didn't want to upset Lauren. We know Graham pushed her away every time she expressed her feelings to him: "you have to manage by yourself", "put your big girl panties on and deal...

I believe the men you are talking didn't suffer from post partum depression, major depression and severe anxiety. I have trouble with "innocent" by reason of insanity. "Guilty" by reason of insanity might be more appropriate. But I do believe the whole family was a victim in this tragedy. I...
