Rusty Yates lost his five children in June 2001, when his wife Andrea drowned them in a bathtub.
The former husband of Andrea Yates, the Texas woman who drowned her five children while in the throes of postpartum psychosis, says that Massachusetts mother Lindsay Clancy should not go to jail — as he urged people not to judge the father.
Though Yates divorced Andrea in 2005, he told Cuomo that his ex was a “wonderful mother,” and insisted that women suffering from postpartum psychosis should not face criminal charges. Rusty Yates appeared on NewsNation to speak about his experience in the 20 years since his children were killed.Prosecutors, however, allege that Clancy, 32, was never formally diagnosed with postpartum depression.
Andrea Yates was originally convicted of capital murder before she was ruled not guilty by reason of insanity.“When someone acts so out of character like that it’s a flag that something else is going on. As far as forgiveness goes, it’s kind of the start,” he explained.
