Lindsay Clancy made disturbing Google searches before killing her 3 kids
Key Points:
- Lindsay Clancy conducted disturbing Google searches in the weeks before she allegedly murdered her three children, including queries like “How to slit throat to die” and “Can you treat a sociopath,” revealed during her murder trial.
- Cellphone analysis showed Clancy searched for terms related to postpartum depression, psychosis, schizophrenia, hallucinations, and prescription drug effects shortly before the killings.
- Clancy is accused of strangling her children with exercise bands before attempting suicide by slitting her wrists and neck and jumping from a second-story window.
- Her defense argues she was suffering from severe postpartum psychosis exacerbated by medication, seeking a not guilty verdict by reason of insanity, while prosecutors claim she was a calculated killer.
- Testimony also revealed Clancy’s journal-like note expressing a desire for a fourth child and the final text messages between her and her husband prior to the discovery of the deaths.
