@meghannmcuniff: Allison Ozga is Lindsay Clancy's sister. She testified as a defense witness in Clancy's murder trial today, and she recalled her condition in the months before she killed her three children on Jan. 24, 2023, strangulation deaths of her three children. She said Lindsay first said something "about the doctors was back in October when she said that she saw a doctor for Zoloft and had a very awful reaction to that Zoloft." "I think throughout our communication over the couple months of October to December, she did share with me that she was going to doctors. She was getting different prescriptions, kind of all the things that they were trying and different treatments they were looking at," Ozga testified this afternoon (Monday, August 17, day 14) in Plymouth County Superior Court in Massachusetts. "And do you recall when you were talking with her about her symptoms towards the end of December, that she had, in your words, decompensated significantly and stated to you that she felt nothing and that she was scared, things of that nature?" asked defense attorney Kevin Reddington. "Yes," Ozga answered. "What else did she tell you, if you recall?" Reddington asked. "At the end of December, so I think it was more along the same of you know that she is really not feeling well. Her mood is down. She's feeling numb. She's feeling hopeless. I believe the very end of the month, she told me she had had suicidal ideation every day for a month," Ozga answered. Ozga said Clancy was "weaning off" Seroquel when she was discharged from McLean Hospital, a pscyhaitric faiclity where she stayed for five days. "Did she tell you anything to the effect that when she got out of the hospital, that she felt as though this was a step in the right direction? Did she seem as though she was trying to be positive about her life?" Reddington asked. Yes," Ozga answered. Ozga said Clancy "said she felt that that was a good plan, and that she was starting to feel better." "So was your sister, in your opinion, granted that she's your sister and you're biased, obviously, but was she a complainer?" Reddington asked. "No," Ozga answered. "And and obviously, she didn't share with you in detail her doctors and medicines and things of that nature. Is that fair?" Reddington asked. "No," Ozga answered. "But you were aware of the struggles and the hurt that she was going through?" Reddington asked. "Yes," Ozga answered. #law #crime #court

My read on the sisters and moms testimony is that while they witnessed changes, they had statements ( from the mom where Lindsay admitted what she felt) but WHO ACTUALLY thinks the result is, what it is? Seriously. I think they saw Lindsay as struggling & sharing - knew she was seeing doctors & trusted that if it seemed MORE dire than what it was, they wouldbe told....and they tried everything any other family would try to do to help. They called, texted and visited. Hindsight is always 20/20....but i couldn't convict because I firmly believe no family would actually leave IF they thought she would actually k!ll her kids 😭

This is where it gets so tricky with family involvement in mental healthcare. Should the solution have been involuntary hospitalization? Because that could turn into a civil rights issue. If Husbands just want to get rid of their wives, they could simply say they are hysterical and have psychosis! That takes us back over 100 years.

She is a social worker and her sister. She wasn’t very concerned in my opinion. Prosecution won on the cross direct.

Who was looking after the kids while she was hospitalized? Patrick? That’s hard to believe… maybe he had girlfriend help?

user2908178603679 :
The utter loneliness she must have felt repeatedly asking for help and no one stayed with her until she was well. They really all just expected her to keep going. I can’t imagine hearing a family member say they’ve thought about suicide every day for a month straight and not treat it like an emergency.

So negligent. She was telling her whole family about hurting the kids and she didn’t say it to doctors? This is ridiculous. She would have been treated differently if she was saying this from the beginning.

cam i genuinely ask why hormones therapy isn't am option for post partum depression? it seems like hormones imbalance is a huge factor in this? ive had 3 children and grateful I did not suffer mentally but your hormones are so out of it. why push ssri? and not hormones regulation?

When my sister was mentally unstable I begged her ex to take the kids. They called me cold and in the end they took them too late and the kids had already been severely traumatized
