NZ 'suitcase murder': Anti-depressants found in children's bodies

In a tragic case in New Zealand, a woman named Hakyung Lee was accused of killing her two children in what was described as an attempted mass suicide. The jury heard that Lee had been struggling with depression following the death of her husband. Autopsy results revealed the presence of anti-depressants in the children's bodies, suggesting Lee may have been attempting to take her own life along with her children's. The case has raised concerns about the challenges faced by individuals dealing with mental health issues and the need for better support systems to prevent such devastating incidents. While the details of the case are still being investigated, the loss of these young lives is a somber reminder of the importance of addressing mental health concerns and providing compassionate care to those in distress.
