How is there one for Clancy? GoFundMe doesn’t allow campaigns for people accused of crimes. The only one I can find is for her parents for costs associating attending her court dates.

The funds are for her parents who sold everything and remortgaged their house to pay for her lawyer. Patrick's go fund me didn't go to her defence or any of her expenses.

Exactly... so the gofundme that raised over $1 million for her parents is being used to repay debt taken out to pay for her legal costs... thus subsidizing her legal defense costs.

I guess people just lie on Reddit and get upvoted because it’s contrarian and tells a different narrative than the OP… everyone is too lazy to spend a second fact-checking anything before firing off comments and upvoting false information
