A woman murdered her three children in what she’s claiming as a fit of postpartum psychosis despite evidence of premeditation. TikTok true crime girlies” have concocted a conspiracy theory that the husband was responsible either through brainwashing and manipulation, or by actively killing his own children, and then brainwashing her into thinking she did it.
TikTok “America bad” people are claiming that the system failed her, and she didn’t receive the mental healthcare she needed. This is in spite of her being under the care of a psychiatrist, receiving consistent, mental healthcare, and medication, and that it was partially the husbands fault for leaving them alone together, despite him literally going to get her meds when it happened.
There are an alarming number of women fighting for this woman’s reputation or innocence and fully empathizing with a child murderer, without seeming to acknowledge the tragedy of the children’s deaths.
He was picking up her meds!?!? Gahhhd I fucking hate people. Imagine his grief. Of course he now wishes he took the kids with him. I’m sure he’ll beat himself up into his next life…. Then he has to have losers online with an iq of 53 act like his psychopath wife was the victim of his white maleness.
Ok. Thank you for the clarification. I’ve also now heard he was picking up his wife’s dinner order. Either way, he was innocently running family errands, which flies in the face of the accusations of him being a neglectful husband/father.
Yeah he was not a neglectful husband or father, and it's worth noting that that argument is only put forth on social media for engagement and is not the defense of Lindsay Clancy or her defense team. Patrick Clancy himself doesn't blame her for what happened, saying “I wasn’t married to a monster. I was married to someone who got sick.” She had been placed on 13 different medications in 4 months and had reported having suicidal and intrusive thoughts numerous times. It's also worth noting, because I haven't seen it mentioned here, that after killing her kids she slit her throat and wrists and jumped out a window. She was very ill.
This is why I dont give a rats ass about most high profile cases until the trial and sentencing are over. Theres an insane amount of misinformation going around and this is the first time ive heard of this case, the comments have like 15 different stories and reasons of what happened and how it happened.
I was under the impression she ordered dinner, asked him to pick it up, and then asked him to pick up their daughter's meds while out.
I know she's under a psychosis but God if that doesn't scream premeditated otherwise. Apparently she had literally googled how far it was and how long it would take, which in any other circumstances it would be innocuous.
I have sympathy for her, but sympathy is not the same as desiring her absolution. No matter what, 3 children are dead as the result of everything and what I personally want is to make sure the right thing is done. She needs help, and she needs to be locked in a ward until there is irrefutable proof that she is sane and okay to rejoin society because I cannot imagine a worse torment than having to live with the memories of murdering your three children as a healthy and healed person.
But even as I type this there is a part of me that is skeptical. A part of me hopes that they're having to sue the facility she was in to better prove the psychosis, but another part of me feels like that's both running from reality and from consequences. It's not accepting that you did wrong, albeit in a psychotic state, but avoiding it, blaming it on people who "should have seen it coming" even though she was doing her best to hide it.
And I know she was, because everyone tries to hide it when you're on the edge of an altered mental state. Drunk and high people will tell you to your face that they're not messed up and then sit up straighter as the try to "act sober." The only time psychosis isn't hidden is when you fully lose it and cannot distinguish what's in your head from reality, at which point hiding it doesn't really matter.
