The "Not Carol" Documentary Team
from Nikki Bostwick Unfiltered Hosted by Nikki Bostwick Unfiltered
“Facebook is really the enemy of new motherhood.” -- Diana Barnes After hearing about the harrowing case of Carol Coronado, the mother who took the lives of her three children in a postpartum psychotic state and was sentenced to three life sentences with no possibility of parole, Eamon Harrington and Veronica Brady needed to try to understand the seemingly incomprehensible. They began the podcast Not Carol, now also a feature-length documentary. This week, we are fortunate enough to have Eamon and Veronica on the show, as well as Diana Barnes, a psychotherapist specializing in women’s reproductive health and cases of infanticide. Together they unpack the issue of infanticide law, the difference between postpartum depression and psychosis, the role social media plays on mothers battling the illness, and the sad realization that the majority of cases come from a lack of support and resources for new moms. It’s a heavy topic, but one we are privileged to support and share with our community. Please listen gently.
