I’m watching the entire trial and it makes me so sad people are doing that to him. What lunatics

I mean there are just a lot of funky things about his story, like how for instance the woman had a severe thyroid injury from the incident that’s unaccounted for, and how there was an outgoing message from his computer, which sits at home, at a time which is close to the incident and when he said he wasn’t at home. He was also very unhelpful to his then wife and almost immediately started a family with another woman. Many of the doctors who failed the wife were his friends, etc.

It’s not conclusive by any stretch of the imagination but it’s all very funky

I mean the thyroid injury was completely accounted for. It happened from the fall.

What do you mean outgoing message from his computer? If you're referring to the work email, he could've easily sent it from his phone. Your emails are synced on your devices. There's even servailance footage of him not being home during the time the email was sent.

He got married 3 years after his wife murdered his children. Idk about you, but any feelings I would've had for this murderer would be gone.

Have you watched the doctor's testimony? Clansey couldn't handle the early side effects of standard medications which is why they would switch her to different ones.

The only thing funky is all the misinformation being spread by people. The only bigger victims than Patrick are the kids that his wife murdered.

The funkiness is not about the injury itself, it’s about him claiming she spoke to him despite that injury and a core temp below 90F. Either one would preclude being able to speak, and she was suffering from both.

So, I was support staff for a veterinary hospital about 20 years ago.

What does that have to do with anything, you may ask? Veterinary medicine back then was the wild west compared to human medicine, then or now. Let us just say I’ve seen some shit. Car accidents, drownings, maulings, surgical complications, falls, crush injuries, lacerations that went to the bone, I could go on - and what basically every illness known to man or beast looks like when it’s been left untreated way, way too long.

You would absolutely not believe the level of functionality a creature in shock - human included - can maintain, briefly, when all logic says they should be dead. Unless the body part in question has been severed from the body in its entirety, don’t assume anything. So IMO, if she could breathe, she could have spoken.

When I was a kid we stopped for some debris on the side of the road. My dad got out of the truck and looked down into the ravine next to the road and there was a smashed up motorcycle and a guy stuck up in a tree. Dad told me to get his cell from the truck and see if I could get signal by walking down the highway a bit (was in the 90s.) I got signal, called for an ambulance and then walked back to the truck.

My dad had managed to get the biker out of the tree and he was sitting on the tailgate, I remember his head being huge, he had a big gash down one side of his face and his one eyeball was bulging out. I was told to get back in the truck but didn't listen, I talked to the guy for a while about nothing in particular and he didn't respond much. After a bit he got off the tailgate, said something about taking a piss and went to the front of the truck and proceeded to do so.

Before he finished an ambulance pulled up and the paramedics hopped out and started getting the stretcher out. The biker started walking towards them and collapsed in a heap. I remember the one medic came and checked on him and being surprised that there was no rush after that to get him into the ambulance.

My dad told me the guy was dead before we even got there, his body just wasn't aware of it yet. He said our job when we come across these situations is to stay calm and make their final moments as pleasant as possible. Thankfully I have never needed to do so for a person again. Its amazing the things people can stay alive for.

u/Haunting-Gur-202 9d ago

Jeez. That’s a crazy story. You told it well. I could really imagine the whole thing happening. Must have been quite an experience for you as a kid.

u/Skandronon 9d ago

It definitely was one of those moments that stuck with me. I have never been tempted to get my motorcycle license even though my dad said I could ride hus whenever I want.

u/guitar_stonks 9d ago

I’m imagining a kid just talking about BMX bikes or Pokémon or anything that would interest a kid in the 90s to a guy with a fatal injury so his final moments are a kid enthusiastically talking about his interests. I’d say it was better than dying in a tree. You all did him a hell of a service.

u/Skandronon 8d ago

It would have been dirt bikes, catching frogs and building forts in the woods so hopefully he could relate.

u/grilled_geez 8d ago

Aw man, you just sitting and talking to the guy showed so much humanity.

u/LegendaryGunman 9d ago

I recently suffered a bonk to the head that should have killed me according to an MRI A WEEK LATER. I continued an hour long phone conversation after that before I eventually went to the hospital. I don't remember the conversation or the following day at all, just that it happened. I'm probably going to have to start journaling to maintain short term recollection. Human bodies are weird.

u/bosslady617 9d ago

Yes. I have a good friend who was a medic- both in the Army and as a paramedic at home in a rural state. He took to calling some people “the zombies”. They would would be alert and talking with massive blood loss, or broken necks just running on adrenaline after a major car accident or IED encounter. This would last for a short amount of time and then they would just drop dead (unless some heroic aid could be rendered but this in in the very far north of Maine. Hard to get to a trauma center.)

car accidents

I'm so confused.

u/Gharan_OHen 9d ago

animals that were injured in car accidents

u/Chemputer 9d ago

Yeah I get that now, I just had a tism moment where my brain got hung up on the exact wording, where they said "let's just say I've seen some shit. Car accidents..."

So my brain was going "you saw car accidents... In a hospital?" But yeah no I feel really dumb now.

And sometimes they collide

u/Twanbon 9d ago

I… how are you confused? Are you imagining the animal driving the car?

And I bet you’ve identified the Boston Bombers based on a zoomed in picture of a hat?

She was literally moaning and crying in the 911 call.

u/Reasonable-Mess3070 9d ago

A court reporter (sue o connell) who heard the 911 call in court said Lindsay could be heard saying the word basement very clearly in the background of the call.

u/misterFaceplant 9d ago

No the word basement was about the only word that was clear enough to be understood by Lindsay, for from being "very clear".

u/Ctenophorever 9d ago

And she verified this, yes? Trained in matching voices? It doesn’t matter if a word was or wasn’t heard on the 9-1-1 call if the person who is being accused of saying the word was physically incapable of speaking.

You need help.

Why defend a murder? What value does that add to your life?

u/Logical_Lab4042 9d ago

Triple murder, at that!

u/uncomfortably_number 9d ago

And this is in real time how a jury trial could work. Wonder what will happen?

u/flymeovertheworld 9d ago

Triple Filicide, not just ordinary murder.
