I can't speak to the jury, but some of her statements really suggested a strong resentment for her children, especially one of the twins. It's hard to spin it as a 'benevolent' killing in the throes of psychosis when she's saying she decided to kill one of her children first because of her being 'really horrible' lately. There's spite in that.

''The court heard that, long before the murders, Dickason searched the internet for ways to kill children.''Disturbing details of how Lauren Dickason allegedly killed her 3 children emerge in New Zealand court | News24
According to reports, prosecutor Andrew McRae said during the first day of court proceedings that the children were asphyxiated by way of cable ties applied around the neck. When this method failed, Lauren smothered them with their blankets. She then attempted to take her own life.www.news24.com
''During his opening arguments, McRae reportedly said Lauren "harboured anger and resentment" towards her children at times.''
''He said that phone messages, which would be used as evidence, showed that Lauren had, at times, threatened to "smack", "suffocate" and "murder" her children.''
''On the night of the murders, Lauren reportedly waited for her husband to leave before fetching cable ties from the garage and telling the girls they were "going to make necklaces"
Her idea of the kids being totally out of control was jumping on the sofa. Which is completely normal kid behaviour. I don't think she wanted children, she wanted automatons.
Well to me it seems like she should be kept in a psychiatric institution for decades or possibly the rest of her life?
I hope she gets all medications in prison. I wonder if hospital would mean, extradition to SA as Lauren was not the citizen of NZ. I am not a lawyer and don’t know how the rules work in these cases.
My problem is those can be things people just say to be expressive or let off steamThings like.. imo, speculation. rbbm

The problem is, she made that statement I quoted within hours of having actually murdered her children, to police. It wasn't a lighthearted letting off of steam at a time when the kids were fine, it was while she was walking them through how she did the crime.My problem is those can be things people just say to be expressive or let off steam
I remember my own mother saying once or twice she could of killed me for something I did but she never meant it literally.
My uncles mother said if he survived his car accident from speeding she was gonna kill him. He did and yet she made no attempts on his life!
The husband seems to be saying that's what it was:
