What do you think?

Yeah, I agree that things seem a bit strange. I don't have an opinion about who I think did/didn't do it. I just feel so sorry for those poor babies

To be honest I have no idea, I haven't followed it but I am glad I'm not on they jury. I suspect either way a not guilty verdict will be delivered as I think reasonable doubt has been proven with witnesses saying the mother admited to doing it.   It's the thing I hate about the court system.

I think they are all as guilty as each other even if only one of them actually physically killed them. They are all hiding things and lying/changing stories. It makes me sick    They died the day before Ashleigh was born so I heard alot of stories in NICU about their time there. I'm sorry to say that those poor babies never had a chance with parents like that

I've been following the case and fully agree with Jo, those poor wee boys didn't stand a chance in a household where not one of the adults there was willing to stand up for them and speak out against what was going on there.
They're all guilty for the loss of those wee angels. It just breaks my heart.

i agree.....everyone in that house should be held accountable for what happened to those poor wee boys!
i haven't really been following the case closely because it upsets me too much, but i don't have a clue who made those final blows.
i really feel for those on the jury.....can you just imagine what they must be seeing and hearing. they will definately need counselling afterwards

That's why they should bring in sterilisation for criminals... weed out their bad genes/personalities etc so the cycle doesn't continue. I think they should all rot in jail, or maybe be dealt the same treatment their babies were.

Does anyone know if the third triplet (there were 3 but one died quite early on) died because of abuse or just because?

I never heard this either.

ok so what do I think?

I think that Chris is taking the fall. I think he knows who killed those boys, I don't think that she is at all innocent. She should be charged for failing to provide the necessities of life or whatever it's called.

I just looked it up, yes they were triplets, the first one died at birth.

From an article i found ;;;

macsyna's character as a mother came under fire that

same day, over her comments when asked to stay the night at Auckland's Starship Children's Hospital, where Chris and Cru Kahui faced further surgery after being admitted with injuries including brain haemorrhages, broken bones and retinal bleeding.

Macsyna spurned the offer of a bed at Ronald McDonald House, telling a nurse, "I don't give a sh*t. I'm going. I need my sleep," a Child Youth and Family worker told the hearing in the Manukau District Court. Five days later, on June 18 last year, Chris and Cru's life support was turned off.

The court also heard how a detective last October asked Chris Kahui, 22 - who will stand trial in the High Court next year - if he knew Macsyna had been having affairs with "other men".

Kahui replied he had heard via his sister Macsyna "could have been sleeping with somebody else".

He said he had confronted Macsyna and she denied the allegations.

Macsyna and Kahui also have a two-year-old son, Shane, who is in the care of other relatives elsewhere in the North Island.

Babies Chris and Cru were two of triplets, born to the couple on March 20 last year. The third baby was stillborn.

Sunday News last year revealed how Macsyna also had three other children -a son, 12, and daughter, 10, to Napier man Kevin Te Kahu, and a seven-year-old girl to another man.

Without wanting to sound too harsh, the scary thing is that both of these people will likely go on and have more children. (although prob not together). That breaks my heart to think that there will be other children put at risk - as I dont think a leopard changes his spots that easily.

I think that everyon in that house should be charged. We really need to start making an example of these people who sit back and watch our children being murdered. I have a friend who is a criminal lawyer out west, and she was telling me that often the police want to prosecute for things like that, but they dont have the resources to do it. That really sucks. If I stood by and watched someone being murdered in my lounge and did nothing - in fact turned a blind eye - surely I would be an accessory to the fact, and deserve to be punished accordingly.

Grrrrr - going away to calm down.
