Mass. mom Lindsay Clancy researched ‘ways to kill’ before allegedly murdering 3 kids: reports
New York Post ^ | 10-25-23 | David Propper

Massachusetts mother Lindsay Clancy looked up “ways to kill,” before she strangled her three young children to death earlier this year, court records reportedly alleged.

The latest details in the grisly murder case against the 33-year-old mother were revealed in newly unsealed search warrant affidavits.

“Ms. Clancy used her cellular telephone and her journal to document her mental state and her feelings about her children, in addition to keeping track of her medications, and researching ways to kill, which means that [it] is reasonable to conclude that Ms. Clancy would have used all formats and tools available to her including a tablet,” one affidavit said, according to the Boston Globe.

Clancy allegedly used exercise ropes to strangle her three kids — Cora, 5, Dawson, 3 and 8-month-old Callan — inside the Duxbury home she shared with her husband in January.

The new court documents do not spell out specific internet searches, the newspaper reported.

The affidavits were used by authorities to request access to Clancy’s electronic devices, including her cell phone, tablet and laptops, the Boston Herald reported.

It’s mind blowing that any mother would kill her own flesh and blood.
Is she Evil or a Mental Case?

Duxbury...that's Plymouth County...not too far from me. Unless she takes a plea I'll make it a point to attend that trial!

Post partum depression? It's very real...my sister had it. But thankfully she overcame it without any huge,long lasting,consequences.

She planned everything. She ordered takeout and sent her husband to pick it up. While he was out, she murdered the children. Now, we know she searched how to murder the children. I don’t buy the insanity defense in this case.

Just did a little reading of the 177 page warrant. She was a nurse at Massachusetts General Hospital (considered by many to be the best hospital in the world). They lived in Duxbury,an affluent (distant) suburb of Boston. She had spent several days as a patient at McLean Hospital (considered by many to be the best psychiatric hospital in the world) just before the incident and was on several psych meds when it happened.

At the very least she was no street bum addict. What she did was surely evil but it's by no means certain that *she* was/is evil.

I know a bit about this stuff because I'm a retiree of MGH,having spent close to 30 years there. If she goes to trial (she certainly could take a plea) I'll make it a point to be there. Given her profession and that she's a fellow MGH employee I'm now very interested in this case.

“... McLean Hospital (considered by many to be the best psychiatric hospital in the world...”

More ‘experts’ who dropped the ball. You can take the word ‘expert’ out of the dictionary

Post partum psychosis.

Well known psychotic state that is the result of post partum depression.

Why depression in New mothers is so serious.

When you consider the multiple-millions of abortions, this shouldn't be so surprising.

Now we’re feeling the effects of all the stuff we’ve been handing out like candies. Absolutely revolting someone could do such a thing, and nobody at the top’s gonna feel a thing.

I don’t think we can blame it all on them, to take away responsibility from the perp is significantly more disgusting...

Very possibly. But another possibility is that they didn't have enough “evidence” to justify a court order *compelling* her to stay longer than she did. Massachusetts,being just about the most Maoist state in the country,has laws making such an order difficult...and time consuming...to get. I know this having worked “front line” medicine in a Massachusetts hospital's ER.

And just for the record...medicine is an inexact science.

And if you know her attorney, you know that she’s not going to be found guilty.

Just like Andrea Yates, she will get away with it.

“What she did was surely evil but it’s by no means certain that *she* was/is evil.”
____________________________________
In no Einstein but that distinction is splitting hairs.
In my book, she know EXACTLY what she was doing. She researched it for God’s sake, and had to systematically kill each child, one by one, and move on to the next. This was no mental lapse in the fit of rage.
If that doesn’t certainly make her evil, then, what does??
She could have jumped out the window without ever touching those children, yet she didn’t.
And the husband forgiving her? WTF
I hope she gets her eternal reward!
