Lindsay Clancy’s ex-husband, Patrick Clancy, testified in her murder trial, providing a detailed timeline of events on the night of January 24, 2023, when their three children were found dead. Patrick recounted his errands, including a trip to CVS and a stop to pick up dinner, during which time Lindsay called him and calmly approved a generic substitute for a child’s stool softener.
Trial Details
When Patrick returned home, he found an eerily quiet house, blood inside the couple’s locked bedroom, and Lindsay injured beneath an open second-story window. He said Lindsay had deep cuts on her wrists and a red line across her neck. When asked what happened, Lindsay responded, ‘I tried to kill myself.’ When asked about the children, Lindsay said they were in the basement, but did not indicate they were injured or in danger.
Attorney Shari Karney said Patrick’s testimony may help prosecutors prove that Lindsay understood her actions when the children were strangled with exercise bands. The defense is expected to argue that Lindsay suffered from severe mental illness, including postpartum psychosis, and was impaired by a shifting regimen of psychiatric medications.
