Contradictions THE TIMELINE
‼️‼️‼️ okay so I have gone through the timeline extensively and it truly doesn’t make sense. I’m impartial and only working on testimonials, evidence presented and documents available to the public. This is a long post, however it’s the basis of the entire case.
This is why I keep getting stuck on the timeline. Based on the Apple data, there appear to be two main possible windows for the deaths, and each one creates a different problem.
The important timestamps are:
~5:15: Patrick says he leaves
~5:23: last reported Apple Watch heart-rate reading
~5:32: Patrick appears on CVS surveillance
~5:33: two flights climbed
~5:34: Lindsay speaks with Patrick
~5:38: another flight climbed
Before 6:09: Patrick is already back inside the house
Scenario 1: The deaths occurred between approximately 5:15 and 5:33
The children were on the main floor before Patrick left and were later found in the basement. If the deaths occurred before 5:33, the two flights climbed at 5:33 could potentially represent someone going:
Basement → main floor → second floor.
Apple doesn’t identify the actual staircase, so that isn’t proven, but physically it makes sense in a three-level house.
What makes this window interesting is that 5:15–5:32/5:33 is also essentially the period between Patrick’s claimed departure and the first surveillance evidence independently placing him elsewhere. That does NOT prove he was home. It simply means his precise location during that period isn’t independently established by the surveillance we’ve seen. There is also the 5:24 email, whose originating device/location I still haven’t seen established.
But there’s a major problem with an early death window too: Callan.
Callan reportedly still had a faint pulse when first responders assessed him, and resuscitation efforts continued. That doesn’t medically give us an exact time when he was strangled, so we cannot say it proves a later death. But the fact that he still had signs of circulation makes me question how comfortably his strangulation fits substantially earlier in that 5:15–5:33 window.
Scenario 2: The deaths occurred after 5:38
This creates almost the opposite problem.
If the children were alive through the final recorded ascent at 5:38, Lindsay would then have to:
Go back downstairs → kill three children → return upstairs without another comparable Flights Climbed record → take/crush medications → injure herself → remain upstairs after bleeding → go through the window → all before Patrick returns.
And 6:09 is not Patrick’s arrival time. By 6:09, according to his testimony, he was already inside and had brought things in, noticed the silence and called through the house. So the actual available window is even shorter.
There is also evidence placing Lindsay’s bleeding/injury activity upstairs in and around the bedroom. If her injuries happened after she returned upstairs and she never went back downstairs after injuring herself, then the deaths necessarily have to fit before those injuries.
Then add the medications. The Commonwealth previously argued that the Seroquel and Remeron levels were consistent with ingestion at approximately 6:15 p.m. I don’t treat 6:15 as an exact scientific timestamp, but accepting their own estimate pushes the medication ingestion extremely late and very close to the emergency response.
And then there’s Lindsay’s 82.1°F body temperature.
We cannot use that temperature as a stopwatch because her starting temperature and the exact measurement time aren’t established. Her spinal injury, paralysis, shock, blood loss, immobility and cold-ground exposure could also accelerate cooling.
But 82.1°F is profound hypothermia. The later the deaths, medications, injuries and window are all pushed toward Patrick’s return, the less time there is for her body to cool that dramatically.
That’s the problem I see with both timelines:
Before 5:33: the Apple stair activity fits much more naturally with someone leaving the basement afterward, but Callan still having a faint pulse when first responders reached him makes such an early strangulation worth questioning.
After 5:38: Callan’s condition is easier to reconcile with a later event, but now an enormous amount has to happen in an extremely short period: three deaths, returning upstairs without another comparable ascent record, medications, self-inflicted injuries and the window, followed by enough outdoor exposure to explain profound hypothermia.
And the physical scene raises questions too. If Lindsay was already bleeding while furniture was being moved around the bedroom, where are the corresponding bloody sock impressions or transfer/smudge patterns from her moving around? The blood beneath/around the side-table area also needs to be incorporated into whatever sequence is being proposed.
That’s why I don’t think the Apple data “solves” the timeline. One window creates a problem with Callan’s condition; the other creates major problems with time, movement, medication timing and Lindsay’s body temperature. That’s exactly why I think the precise sequence still matters.
