You lawyers, where does husbandly responsibility begin and end? Why do the courts not find any culpability in him?

Not knowing all of the facts of the case, just having seen a few snippets about it on the news (I find it too horrible an event to really want to know that much about it), I would question what the charge would be? And how would it be applied? What about her parents? Were they around? What about the doctors? Any siblings? Perhaps neighbours. Where would the chain of responsibility end?
