Can you explain why? I vaguely remember that it seemed plausible there were extenuating circumstances that were worth considering. Weren’t they horribly horribly abused? Or is that the part you’re calling bullshit?
I’m not sure I’ve heard any child sexual abuse case where i was like “oh yeah that seems plausible”. They are always unbelievably heinous and mind-blowing to me, so would be curious why this one seems particularly unbelievable
From what I’ve been reading it seems pretty likely they were sexually abused. Do you have any counter evidence? Even the judge in this said that the new evidence “slightly supports” the idea of abuse they just don’t think that it would have resulted in a change to the outcome of the case.

They confessed to the killings to their therapist (as they denied in public to any involvement and actively tried to cover up the act).
What they did NOT confess to the therapist (when they thought they had patient-doctor confidentiality) is any type of sexual abuse.
It was admitted at trial because they threatened to kill the therapist, nullifying the privilege.
