Overview
- Lindsay Clancy strangled her three children on Jan. 24, 2023, later admitted the killings and survived a suicide attempt that left her paralyzed from the waist down.
- The trial over the killings ended in a mistrial in September 2026 after an 11-1 jury split on whether she was not criminally responsible due to psychosis or had planned the acts.
- On Sept. 26, 2026 news outlets published deleted Reddit posts tied to Patrick Clancy that record months of worries about Lindsay’s reaction to medications and escalating symptoms before the murders.
- Patrick’s posts, which court testimony linked to his email, say Lindsay took Zoloft then was given benzodiazepines and later switched to Prozac while suffering severe insomnia, rapid weight loss and worsening mood.
- Both Lindsay and Patrick have filed civil suits alleging treating doctors missed a bipolar diagnosis, a development that could increase scrutiny of perinatal prescribing, telemedicine practices and crisis care.
