In this episode of Coffee Crime Club, we discuss the heartbreaking and controversial case of Andrea Yates.

In June 2001, inside her home in Houston, Yates drowned her five young children in the family bathtub — a tragedy that stunned the nation and sparked intense debate about mental illness and criminal responsibility.

As investigators uncovered more details, the case revealed a devastating struggle with severe postpartum mental illness, including Postpartum Psychosis. Her trial became one of the most widely discussed intersections of true crime, mental health, and the justice system.

Was this a calculated act… or the result of a catastrophic mental health crisis?

Aireyon and Sydney break down the timeline, the warning signs leading up to the tragedy, and the legal battle that followed.
