Patrick Clancy walked into a quiet house on January 24th of 2023 He'd been gone maybe 30 minutes. He called out to his wife and got no answer. He called down to the basement, nothing. Tried Lindsay's phone at around 6:09 p.m., no answer. He checked the kids' bedrooms empty, checked the bathrooms empty, then got to the primary bedroom and the door was locked. He told the jury in Plymouth Superior Court that in that moment he knew something was wrong. He found a key that had been taped behind another bedroom door. He unlocked it. What Patrick Clancy walked into was a room covered in blood. A pool of it in the center of the floor sprayed across surfaces smeared on the doorknob and a window wide open, wind blowing in. He moved one or two steps into that room and then turned around and went outside. Lindsay was lying on her back beneath the bedroom window. She had deep cuts on her wrists and a red line across her neck. She told him she had tried to end it. He asked her where the kids were. She said in the basement. She did not say they were hurt. She did not say they were in danger. She did not say they needed help. Patrick Clancy called 911 That seven minute call was played for the jury on July 29th inside Plymouth Superior Court. The judge had ruled it could be played in court, but not broadcast out to the public. So we haven't heard it. You haven't heard it. Unless you were in that courtroom, you didn't hear it. Patrick was also not in the courtroom when the jury heard it. The judge let him step aside. During the first part of the call, you can hear Patrick trying to keep Lindsay conscious. Keep your eyes open. Look at me. Say my name. You can hear Lindsay moaning and struggling to speak. Once first responders arrived and began working on Lindsay, Patrick stayed on the line and went to the basement. He found Cora first, five years old, face down an exercise band around her neck. He untied it. She was unresponsive. Then he saw eight-month-old Callan next to her, also with an exercise band around his neck. He looked for three-year-old Dawson and found him in the home office. Same thing, an exercise band around his neck. Patrick went back and forth between his three children, attempting CPR on each of them until first responders took over. On that call, you can hear Patrick Clancy screaming, she killed the kids. The dispatcher repeats it back to him, she killed the kids. Lindsay Clancy sat at the defense table in her wheelchair. For most of the recording, she was quiet, but by the end of the 911 call, she was openly sobbing, face in her hands, multiple jurors were visibly shaken. If you don't believe that this woman was affected by this, go watch the video. Judge William Sullivan called a recess. A veteran reporter from Boston 25 who's covered trials for 43 years walked into the hallway and said it was one of the worst things he's ever heard. Before the day was over, the prosecution also walked nine prescription bottles in front of that jury, many of them still full of pills. They think those bottles prove Lindsay Clancy wasn't really over-medicated. They think those bottles win them the case. I'll get to what those bottles actually prove in a minute because it wasn't what the prosecution thinks.

Some can understand how this very much was postpartum psychosis, what the brain does when taking on and off this many medications, taking some, taking, I mean, the argument of she didn't take all of them doesn't really make a damn bit of difference. You take some of these, you take a few of them, you take this, you mix, you match, you don't have one doctor knowing what the other one's doing, and you put these things into your body, and guess what? All of the side effects that you hear in those fast talking commercials, they can come true. They're not there for no reason. It's not just a bunch of witchery and this will never take place. Now, you hear those those fast talkings, taking this drug may cause... and then when you mix it with 13 other ones, and then you mix in what's going on with Lindsay by herself, take the drugs out of the equation.
