The ex-husband of Andrea Yates, the mother who drowned her five children in a bathtub in 2001 while battling postpartum , is speaking out again 22 years after their deaths to call for prosecutors to drop charges against Lindsay Clancy, who is now facing charges for killing her three kids. Andrea drowned the five children she shared with Russell 'Rusty' Yates in Houston in 2001. She was battling postpartum depression, postpartum psychosis and schizophrenia. She was convicted of five counts of capital murder and sentenced to life in prison, but the verdict was overturned in 2006, when she was found not guilty by reason of insanity. For the last 16 years, she has been receiving care in a mental hospital, and declines eligibility for release every year.
