Clearly, Russell Yates' failure to protect his children from their mother's psychosis resulted in their deaths.
Does that make him a murderer? There are two things wrong with this. Russel neither killed nor intended to kill the children. (And I'm not sure the premeditation test applies in Texas...)

That would require proof that Russell knew Andrea's psychosis would result in murder.
My gut tells me that while Andrea may have had some physical condition that rendered her susceptible to psychosis, something pushed her over the edge. I have my own suspicions about that, but I'll keep them to myself...
