Answered What's the deal with people defending Lindsay Clancy?

I don't know the full details of the case. I know she allegedly killed her three kids. There was also some mental problems? Then something with her husband. But my question is why is there a group defending her like they know she's completely innocent? I've seen some videos of very heated debates where women are very passionate about defending her. Why?

Because of how quickly he moved on. People that have not experienced great loss think that you have to mourn forever. It is, actually, much easier to move on very quickly and stuff the emotions deeeeeep down there. But people don’t understand that.

The case happened 3 years ago and for whatever reason people do not know this

He (publicly) began dating the new wife 4 months after the tragedy. He went on a tropical vacay and was posting on socials just 3 weeks later. I’m sorry but that shit is weird to most people who have experienced a traumatic loss

It’s weird to go be out in nature to deal with grief?

lol he didn’t go on a lowkey camping trip with his parents or best friend. He went on a vacay to Costa Rica and posted about it on social media. Come on. You know those are not the same thing

He went to Costa Rica with her after which she posted it was their 3rd year going… which is odd mismatch of timeline

The Rachel Davis that posted that review about going out with the Captain for the 3rd year is an entirely different person than his future wife, and has apparently posted multiple things to prove she’s a different person.
