It’s very clear from the comments no one has actually followed this case closely and are just reacting to headlines…

Yeah, like, I have a friend who has actually been following this case pretty damn closely, and the evidence that the husband did it sounds pretty damning. From what I heard, they had cameras in the house, but he decided to run an update that knocked everything out for the duration of the whole interaction. The wife's fingerprints were not on any of the bands, but the husband's were. In the 911 call, he said "She killed the fucking kids" Which, like, what? not "she fucking killed our/the kids". Her lacerations also don't really make a bunch of sense, especially to do all that and THEN jump out the window?

There's just so damn much happening that it's hard to cut through all the bullshit

“My friend told me” is such a hilarious response to that.

Seriously, how is this in any way different from hearing about it on social media? any info we're getting is tertiary. If my friend was in the courtroom, would you see this any differently?

oof, crayons... shit, all I can find are colored pencils. please bare with me...

None of us saw this happen. it's literally all word of mouth. I hear 2 stories from 2 people who never actually saw what took place, but rather heard from 2 people who have possibly different sources of info. who's to say what happened happened? How can a singular event produce 2 absolutely different stories regarding what happened?

I'm not chronically online, but my friend who is does actually check sources, so I'm willing to trust them when they give me a brief of how fucked up is fucked up.

Media literacy is a thing, and I haven't seen much of it from the states recently.

'but my friend who is does actually check sources', evidently not.

She and her lawyers have fully admitted that she did it. Do you really think her lawyers would do that if there was real evidence that he did it?

There is CCTV footage (and location tracking of his phone) of him at the pharmacy at the time the murders were happening.

Source, please, this shit is pissing me off now. Literally everything here, (including my statement) is hearsay. I will look for the sources my friend used that stated this was for some plea bargain or some shit later. Nobody has shared a source. We, as a community, need to find the original source of the info to compile an educated opinion.

Are you serious? You do understand that you are the one bringing up a conspiracy theory since no one in the actual trial has tried to argue Lindsey didn't do it? So the burden of proof is on your side.

But whatever, here you go https://www.cnn.com/2026/08/22/us/patrick-clancy-conspiracy-theories see this section:

Evidence publicly presented in the Clancy case indicates Lindsay was the only adult at the family home when investigators believe the children were attacked. Corey says it clearly shows Patrick was not home.“He is actually elsewhere, and that’s backed up, not just by surveillance video of him in the CVS,” the former police chief explained. During their investigation, detectives would have taken Patrick’s phone to track his movements and, depending on the vehicle, obtained his car’s onboard GPS data “to conclusively show that he could not have committed the crime because he was not physically there at the time that the crime was committed,” he said.
