@cnn: Lindsay Clancy, the Massachusetts mother who has argued she is not criminally responsible for fatally strangling her three young children, told her then-husband, Patrick Clancy, roughly two months before the killings that she had “intrusive thoughts” about hurting them. Clancy has pleaded not guilty to three counts of murder and faces life in prison if convicted. Her attorney has argued she was suffering from postpartum psychosis and extreme mental illness.

The fact that he’s already remarried lets me know the type of marriage they had and the type of person he is 🤷‍♀️

She was clearly not in her right mind. That’s why people are asking questions about her husband. Not because they’re excusing her actions, but because he wasn’t the one suffering from postpartum psychosis, and people wonder whether more could have been done to recognize the severity of her illness and keep everyone safe. It’s a tragedy for everyone involved.

Remarried and had another baby in less than two years!! The fact he is not also charged for negligence disgusts me.

This woman asked for help REPEATEDLY. She was overmedicated and ignored.

If my husband EVER said he had “thoughts of harming” our children- he would not be around them. Period.

At an absolute minimum he should be charged with child neglect/endangerment. How could you possibly ever justify leaving your children with someone who is expressing thoughts of harming them?

The bash on Patrick is crazy , from the facts of the trial seems like she had a whole village, parents moved in , he decided to move his work from home they even had a whole nanny ! Let’s talk about how she had everyone thinking she was taking a whole bunch of meds and was barely even taking them 🙄🙄

100% responsibility lies with the doctors who dismissed her fears and concerns. This was a family dealing with an absolutely unthinkable set of circumstances. Most people have no idea that ppd can end up being psychosis.

she needed inpatient care. her care team did not handle this right and husband failed to get her the help she needed. that kind of hormone disturbance leading to psychosis is essentially like being on drugs to the point of no control. he left his sick spouse alone when he was explicitly instructed not to.

If roles were reversed… and a woman left her kids with someone who said they had intrusive thoughts of hurting the kids, who’d be in jail?
