Darlie Routier: Guilty or Innocent of Killing Her Own Children?

This week Kendra explores a complex case from 1996. A mother, Darlie Routier, wakes up to a frightening scene at 2:30am to find her 2 young sons stabbed to death and suffering from her own injuries. Who broke into the house and committed such a violent act?  Well, according to the police officers that investigated the scene, there was no intruder at all. Instead, they dialed in that it must have been Darlie, a mother who chose to murder her own children, fake injuries of her own and stage the murder scene in the middle of the night. Oh, and by the way, she did all of this while her husband and 8-month old baby slept right upstairs.  Darlie Routier now sits on death row in Texas. Many believe she deserves to be executed because she is a child killer, the worst of the worst. Others believe she was judged harshly by a justice system that never looked at the possibility that it could have actually been an intruder that committed this horrific crime.  Listen now for all of the details and decide for yourself what you think. Is Darlie guilty or innocent?  __________ Please subscribe to and rate Lucid Lab Podcast (5 stars!) on your favorite podcast platform!
