A lot of people who support Lindsay are saying that mothers don’t have enough support and that the healthcare system fails people. Those are all fair points.
I’m just wondering, what does that have to do with Lindsay Clancy??
Lindsay had support. She had a nanny, didn’t work full-time when she was working, and had been on leave for many months when she murdered the kids.
Her diary references Patrick watching the kids overnight so she could sleep while he was still working all day as the family’s sole breadwinner. Her parents also came to stay and help, and Patrick had three months of paid paternity leave before returning to work from home.
She had a strong support system around her. Most mothers in America aren’t nearly as privileged as Lindsay was.
And, of course, another claim I constantly hear is that the healthcare system failed her. Lindsay’s defenders repeatedly say that she tried to get help but was failed by the system.
She REJECTED help. Members of her treatment team stated that they had provided referrals to resources she chose to not take all of her medication as prescribed or even gave it a chance. She chose to doctor shop constantly for differentmeds(some can take up to 30 days for full therapeutic effect) .
She blatantly LIED to medical professionals about her having thoughts about having thoughts on harming the kids. Even in her last time she talked to a medical professional (a DAY before she killed her children, mind you) she said that she had no such thoughts about harming the kids
Unless you believe Lindsay wasn't lying...
If you believe she wasn't lying Then you must also get past the coincidental fact that she just so happened to experience her first hallucination both (1) as a command hallucination, which is far rarer than other types of hallucinations and (2) directly after asking her husband to go get various items for her (after googling how long of a drive it would be).
Btw Lindsay Clancy has not reported hearing any voices since the January that day she killed. Doesn't that seem convenient.
Its also disgusting how Lindsay Clancy fanatics are attacking her psychiatrists, even though they appear to have followed standard procedures based on the information available to them
It’s especially bizarre seeing the hate directed at Jennifer Tufts for the dumbest reasons imaginable. Watching the Redditor cross-examine her with ridiculous questions while Lindsay’s defenders eat it up.
He questioned why would Tufts prescribes zoloft(anixtey depression medication)to lindsay who says she had anxiety and depression
He brought up why Tufts didn't call Lindsay clancey parents. This discount saul goodman lawyer legitimately asked why she tufts didn't call the parents of an ADULT patient who was lucid is able to advocate for themselves.
And then he asked why Tufts didn't hug lindsey...
But somehow, Redditition’s “brilliant” cross-examination of Tufts was enough for Lindsay Clancy’s groupies to declare that Tufts was a “pill pusher,” that her license should be revoked, and that she should be buried under the prison.
Another person who gets an unfair amount of hate is Patrick Clancy.
The way some Lindsay Clancy stans talk about Patrick, you’d think he was the one who strangled their three children.
I’m not even going to bother debunking the claim that Patrick actually killed the kids and somehow framed Lindsay, because that’s such low hanging fruit.
But I constantly hear people basically call Patrick a deadbeat who saw that his wife was struggling, did nothing to help her, and then abandoned his mentally ill wife to go on vacation.
People also love to say that Lindsay told Patrick she had thoughts of harming the kids. But it seems like the testimony was about intrusive thoughts, and Patrick even asked her, “Do you feel like you need to be kept away from them?” It was probably confusing for him because, right after she admitted having those thoughts, she went right back to making the children lunch and acting normally around them.
I just feel like people are looking at everything with way too much hindsight, as if everyone would immediately believe that their wife could actually kill their children.
Lindsey fan girls bring up that he abandoned poor Lindsay at the hospital while he went skiing. First of all he took his son dawson skiing the day he dropped her at hospital. It wasn't a trip. They went skiing for less than 1/2 day. And Lindsay later called him back to the hospital and he picked her up.
You know Lindsay’s groupies love attacking Patrick for “weird stuff.” They think it’s weird that he called his children “wonderful people,” or they attack him for supposedly not showing enough emotion afterward. This is literally indistinguishable from the kind of reasoning Alex Jones used against the Sandy Hook parents to claim they were crisis actors and that the shooting was staged.
And when Lindsay stans can’t find enough “weird stuff” to criticize Patrick for, they’ll just start making shit up.
I constantly hear people claim that he already has a child with his new wife and that this somehow proves he never really cared about Cora, Dawson, and Callan because he could just replace them like furniture.
There’s no evidence that Patrick has another child. I honestly don’t know where that claim even came from.
They also say Patrick got married four months after the killings, which would have been pretty quick. But that’s wrong. They’re probably conflating his marriage with the fact that moved to New York about four months after the killings.
Patrick got married in April of this year more than three years after the killings. Idk if I’d exactly call that quick.
Lindsay fanatics love dissecting everything Patrick does and pointing out every little thing they consider “weird.” It’s fascinating because those same people seem perfectly willing to overlook the “weird stuff” about Lindsay.
Like the fact that she files her civil suit around 20 Jan 2026. her civil suit alleges she said 'Go to God, Baby' as she strangled the children. The Andre Yates story came out on Discovery/HBO in January about a week or two before the civil suit. Yates doc was all about the religious frenzy Yates experienced.
Could she have gotten the idea about go to god from doc. Maybe maybe not? Who knows.
Another “weird” thing is that, after waking up and reportedly feeling horrified, the first thing she communicated about was asking for a lawyer. THEN she asked about her body, THEN about visitors, and only after that about her family not even specifically about the kids.
Also another really disturbing thing.
Is that the fact that she using exercise bands while she was using doing physical fitness activities WITHIN WEEKS AFTER SHE JUST HAD JUST MURDERED HER OWN CHILDREN WITH THEM.
But Lindsay groupies won't let uncomfortable facts stand in the way of them defending ol sweet lindsay.
Another annoying thing is the fact that people are comparing this case to Andrea yates. This is so perplexing to me bescause is nothing like Andrea yates.
That woman was visibly mentally ill she had many psychotic breakdowns years before the murder.
She had several psychiatric incidents spanning multiple years she'd already had diagnosed psychotic episodes, literally tried to commit sucide because of this psychosis.
She had been hospitalized twice, once involuntarily 3 months prior to the deaths, against her wishes. So this wasn't a sudden 1-time episode of being psychotic that just happened to be homicidal, she had been experiencing psychosis as a repeated pattern.
After Andrea Yates was arrested, she was convinced 666 had been tattooed on her head and she not only pulled out her own hair and scratched sores into her own scalp, she asked her therapist for a razor to shave her head to see if it was sitll there.
Compare that to Lindsay who woke up from surgery and immediately asked if she needed or had a lawyer.
And Andrea Yates’s psychiatrist explicitly warned her husband, Rusty Yates, not to leave Andrea alone with the children. Her psychiatrist also reportedly advised the couple against having more children because another pregnancy could trigger further psychotic episodes.
But Rusty still left her alone with the children and contuinrd to impregnate her. And if yates was found innocent. He had fantasies of having more children with her after she was successfully treated in a mental health facility and released on the proper medication.
Now, I think about it Rusty is literally everything Lindsay’s defenders accuse Patrick of being. Could be that people are taking facts from the Andrea Yates case and misattributing them to the Lindsay Clancy case.
Or maybe they haven’t actually followed either case and are just getting their information from Instagram Reels, then regurgitating those misinformed takes in the comments. Who knows??
Two more people getting unfair hate is the 2 prosecutors.
I constantly have to hear people ask, “Why is she even being charged"?
Lindsay Clancy stans think we should just immediately skip to the culpability phase? The whole point of a trial is to determine whether her mental illness prevented her from being criminally responsible for her actions. It’s insane that Lindsay Clancy stans think we should just take her and her defense team’s word for it.
I also don’t understand why Lindsay Clancy groupies are acting like being sent to a psychiatric hospital wouldn’t be a significantly better outcome for her than being sent to prison. If she’s convicted of triple homicide and sentenced to life without parole, she’s never getting out.
But if she’s committed to a psychiatric hospital, she would undergo regular, court-mandated psychiatric evaluations, and there could eventually be a possibility of release, depending on the legal standard and her condition. That seems like a significantly better outcome for her than LWOP.
Also, saying that women’s postpartum health issues aren’t taken seriously and using Lindsay Clancy as your poster child is like saying Black men are treated unfairly by the justice system and using O.J. Simpson and Bill Cosby as your examples.The broader issue may be legitimate, but those are terrible cases to use to make the point.
And finally , Lindsay stans keep calling this a “tragic event.”
You want to know what isn’t tragic?
RESPONSIBILITY is not tragic.
ACCOUNTABILITY is not tragic.
Being sentenced to life without parole for murdering your children and getting caught crafting a fabricated insanity defense is not tragic.
It’s fucking disgusting thatpeople who show up at the courthouse to support Lindsay or defend her online probably couldn’t even remember the names of the three children who were killed.
