On September 16, 2021, Lauren Dickason tragically murdered her three daughters, 6-year-old Liané, and 2-year-old twins Maya and Karla at her home in Timaru, New Zealand.  When her husband returned home from work, she had said that it was “too late”.  After admitting to killing her children, she went to trial, denying that it was murder, but instead she pleaded insanity or infanticide.  Lauren was found guilty of murdering her three children on August 16, 2023, and is due to be sentenced in 2024.  Join us today as we discuss this important case, postpartum depression and the pressures of parenthood.
