Lindsay Clancy as a new talking point?
Is anyone else seeing this?
Lindsay Clancy is on trial for the murder of her children following a psychotic episode and lots of side effects from a litany of medications. I haven’t been following the trial closely enough, but it seems there are two possibilities- either she did it in a psychotic episode, or her husband is framing her.
Regardless, she’s receiving a lot of sympathy because she was very obviously a good mother suffering postpartum trying to get help and was failed. For those unaware, she tried to kill herself afterwards and lived and is now paralyzed. Shes sobbing throughout the trial, and we found out it was the husband who basically said “she’s Been suffering postpartum and she did this” and that was the basis of the trial. She doesn’t really remember much and we’re going off of the husbands account. People think the husband could’ve framed her because the timeline of his story doesn’t fit. Her body temp was too low when the husband allegedly found her outside after jumping out the window (calling into question how long she’d actually been out there), details don’t match, and Lindsay was indeed struggling so it’s possible it was a perfect scapegoat. I digress. That’s just context.
My point though, is suddenly there’s a spike in discourse among the same who love to trash Candace. Saying that postpartum depression/psychosis doesn’t exist, it’s a result of women being selfish, and that anyone defending Lindsay has been brainwashed by conspiracy and is hellbent on letting violent murderers roam free.
They keep relating it to Charlie and acting as though it’s emblematic of society today, “trying to free the man who murdered Charlie and rallying around the horrible woman who’s a cold blooded killer and murdered her children.”
They’re also acting like noticing oddities, like the husband sending an email from his home computer during the time he said he was out of the house during the murders, is “being brainwashed by conspiracyslop”.
This is just wild. Not only is the Lindsay Clancy case insanely nuanced, their new talking point is to act like “trying to free guilty evil murderers is the new MO” of society at large
A. How do they think this is going to win for them? And
B. …what?
