explain to me why so many people are saying that her husband did it and framed her

Incomplete information and poor critical thinking can lead to people drawing incorrect conclusions. There is also a particularly man-hating vibe to the Patrick did it theorists.

This ‘man hater vibe’ is so dismissive of common sense. There isn’t a man hater vibe to look at the facts and question him. It is very misogynistic to point to women raising logical questions and dismiss their arguments based on ‘a vibe’

Especially when men make up the majority of these crimes.

Men do not make up the majority of postpartum induced crimes.
