Stories like this don't just happen overnight. They're born out of years of struggle, silence, mistakes, and pain. What I'm about to tell you is not only the story of a crime, it's the unraveling of a woman named Andromeda, the system that judged her, the family that got torn apart, and the community left trying to make sense of it all. The medication argument Let's rewind to one of the defense's main strategies.

When Andromeda was first questioned, her lawyers argued that she wasn't in her right mind. She had been under the influence of medication, both pills she had taken before the attack and the sedatives given to her during recovery. According to the defense, anything she said during those early hours shouldn't count, because she was foggy, unstable, and not fully aware of reality. Shockingly, the judge agreed with this reasoning. That was a rare win for Andromeda's legal team. The court ordered the public ministry to basically restart the investigation from scratch,

as if the earlier process didn't exist. Imagine that, the entire case rolled back to square one. Medical examinations Meanwhile, doctors and specialists were called in to evaluate Andromeda herself. Was she addicted to substances? Did she have a mental illness that could explain her actions? The results came back clear, no addiction, no diagnosed psychiatric disorder. This outcome was a double-edged sword.

On one hand, it knocked down the narrative that she was some drugged-out danger to society. On the other, it also killed the possibility of using mental illness as a shield in court. Attempt at conditional release The defense tried to capitalize on the situation. Since the investigation had to restart, and since the medical reports didn't point to her being unstable, they requested that Andromeda be released under conditional freedom. Basically, let her out of preventive prison while the new investigation unfolded. The judge wasn't having it. The request was denied. Andromeda stayed behind bars.

Fast forward, December 2018. Here's the thing, justice moves like molasses. Three whole years after the tragic events, the official trial finally began in December 2018. That's right, three years of waiting, appeals, motions, and prison before Andromeda even got to face the case. the actual trial. The defense came in swinging with a bold strategy. They wanted the court to declare her not criminally responsible, what in legal terms is called inimputable.

They claimed she had acted under a lethal cocktail of desperation, stress, and uncontrollable aggression. Basically, she was so emotionally wrecked that she couldn't be held accountable. But when the psychiatric report landed on the judge's desk, it didn't support that idea. The experts concluded that, yes, Andromeda was under emotional strain, but she still had the ability to participate in her defense and understand what she was doing. That finding validated the continuation of the criminal process. The Kitchen Object One of the strangest parts of the trial was the weapon itself.

The alleged murder weapon wasn't a gun or a knife, but a kitchen object. That item became the centerpiece of court. drama. The defense tried to kick it out as evidence. Why? Because the fingerprint found on it was from Andromeda's right hand, yet she was left-handed. Their argument was simple, in a violent act, people instinctively used their dominant hand. If she was a lefty, how could her right hand be the one on the weapon? It sounded clever, but the prosecution hit back hard. The victims were babies and small children. No, excessive force was needed to cause fatal injuries. In other words, hand dominance didn't really matter. On top of that, forensic analysis showed biological residues,

traces from both the children and Andromeda, on the object. And where was it found? Right in the spot where Andromeda had been during the attack. Those details sealed its fate as a valid piece of evidence. The wounds on Andromeda. Another point of contention, Andromeda had eight wounds on her own body. The defense insisted these injuries didn't match a genuine suicide attempt.

They claimed her ingestion of pills was simply meant to make her sleep.

4.slash cervical check. Not to end her life. The prosecution painted a different picture. The wounds were self-inflicted after the attack. maybe out of guilt, maybe as an attempt to stage a suicide. The cryptic warning. As investigators dug deeper, they found a chilling piece of information.

Before the tragedy, Andromeda had told the partner of her husband's associate that she was about to do something unforgivable. What did she mean? Nobody knew for sure. Was she talking about locking herself in a hospital or institution? or was she foreshadowing the bloodbath that would follow? That uncertainty hung over the courtroom like a dark cloud. SET's testimony Then came the most heart-wrenching moment, said, her son, took the stand. The boy described how he asked his mother that night, why are you doing this? And according to him, Andromeda's answer was chilling in its simplicity, forgive me.

Then, she turned the weapon on herself. That raw, innocent testimony hit like a hammer. It was direct, emotional, and impossible to ignore. Andromeda's silence Throughout the trial, Andromeda herself never directly addressed the judge. She let her lawyers speak for her, sitting in silence as the courtroom dissected her life and her choices. Some people saw her silence as guilt. Others thought it was resignation.

The verdict By the end of December 2018, the decision was handed down. After weighing the testimonies, evidence, and arguments, the court declared her guilty. The sentence 56 years in prison She was convicted for the murders of Lesha and Kayla, and the attempted murder of said. For all intents and purposes, her life outside prison was over. Speaking out from behind bars

Years later, after living in prison, receiving psychological support, and spending endless hours replaying the events in her mind, Andromeda decided to speak to the press for the first time. She said what kept her going was her family's support and the hope, fragile as it was, that one day she might see her son again. Her version of events Andromeda's account of that night clashed with the official version. She said that when she learned her husband was about to be released, she panicked. She feared retaliation from him and from his associate, whom she described as unstable and dangerous. She admitted taking sleeping pills, not to kill herself, but to avoid breaking down in front of her children. She locked herself in the bathroom so her kids wouldn't see her cry, and so neighbors wouldn't hear

her screams. About the wounds on her body, she pushed back against the idea that they were failed suicide attempts. As an embalmer, she had anatomical knowledge. She insisted that if she had truly intended to kill herself, the injuries would have been far more precise. She also emphasized the fingerprint issue again. Only her right thumb print was found on the weapon, and she was left-handed. To her, this screamed setup. She pointed the finger at Jesus and his associate, claiming they had manipulated everything. According to her, both men had important cases at the time, cases involving large sums of money. She said it didn't surprise her when the associate told her she was crazy, rather than admit Jesus had a drinking problem. Her final words.

In that interview, she said she had done. done her best as a mother and as a wife, even in impossible circumstances. Her version contradicted much of the trial evidence, but it reignited debates among the public. Some people were convinced, Andromeda was guilty, end of story. Others wondered if Hesus had pushed her to the brink, or even played a direct role in the crime. Official response The deputy prosecutor didn't let her words linger without pushback. He publicly dismissed her claims, reminding the press that she had been judged with a gender perspective, and that the court had thoroughly demonstrated she acted consciously when committing the crimes.

The big question. And that leaves us with the uncomfortable question, was justice truly served? Some argue yes, the evidence was overwhelming, that the evidence was overwhelming, that Testimony's solid, and a conviction appropriate. Others believe the system turned a blind eye to Jesus' possible role and ignored years of domestic violence that shaped Andromeda's actions. Either way, the tragedy is undeniable. Two little girls lost their lives, a boy carries trauma no child should ever bear,

and a woman spends the rest of her life in prison, haunted by what happened. Reflection, more than just a case. What makes this story so haunting isn't just the crime itself, it's the layers. It's about cycles of abuse, the failures of the justice system, the stigma around mental health, and the impossible decisions made in moments of despair. Andromeda's life behind bars continues, but the echoes of that night will ripple for decades. The end.
