Honestly nobody should make decisions. Just leave it up to the dice rolls.

This is the verbatim response I got from Gemini when I copy-pasted your comment to it and asked if it was accurate:

This comment is largely inaccurate and blends internet rumor with severe factual distortions of the official record in the Lindsay Clancy case. The defense and prosecution in this case actually agree on the physical sequence of events; the entire legal battle centers on criminal responsibility, mental state, and postpartum psychosis versus premeditation—not whether Patrick Clancy was the perpetrator.

The Timeline and Patrick’s Whereabouts

• The Alibi: Patrick did not merely give an unverified statement. He went to pick up takeout from a local restaurant (Three V) and medication from a CVS at Lindsay’s request. Police obtained independent timestamps, receipt logs, and security surveillance footage confirming his physical presence away from the house during the exact window the attacks occurred (under 45 minutes).

• The 911 Call: Patrick did not "casually sit on the couch." Dispatch logs and audio record him frantically calling 911 after finding Lindsay injured in the backyard. The 911 audio captures his hysterical screams as he discovered the children in the basement during the call with operators.

The Confession and Police Involvement

• Hospital Interviews: The assertion that police and Patrick surrounded her hospital bed and coerced a false memory is contradicted by court filings. Lindsay’s defense attorney, Kevin Reddington, noted that Lindsay was initially intubated, sedated, and paralyzed from the waist down from spinal fractures sustained during the jump.

• The Call to Patrick: When Lindsay regained the ability to communicate, she was granted permission to make a phone call to her husband using a defense investigator's phone. During that private conversation—which Patrick recounted to investigators—Lindsay told him she heard a voice ("a man's voice") telling her to kill the children and kill herself because it was her "last chance." The defense did not dispute that she made these statements; rather, they used them as foundational evidence of an acute psychotic episode and auditory hallucinations.

The Suicide Attempt and Medical Knowledge

• Lindsay did not take "a handful of unidentified pills" during the event, nor did prosecutors allege four convoluted, staged steps. She sustained lacerations to her wrists and neck, followed by jumping from a second-story window.

• The jump resulted in severe, permanent spinal cord trauma resulting in paraplegia. The severity of these injuries runs counter to internet speculation that the attempt was superficial or staged by a third party.

Claims Regarding Patrick's Personal Life and Family

• Remarriage and Vacations: Patrick did not remarry or immediately go on vacation. In the months following the tragedy, he released a public statement asking for forgiveness for Lindsay, ran the Boston Marathon to raise money for Boston Children’s Hospital in honor of his children, and lived quietly out of the public spotlight.

• Family Allegations: The claim that "even his own mom thinks he was involved" has no basis in any court record, public statement, or verified report; it is an unfounded social media rumor.

Neither the Plymouth County District Attorney's office nor Lindsay Clancy’s defense team has ever presented Patrick as a suspect. The core dispute remains whether Lindsay was legally insane at the time of the acts due to severe mental illness and medication side effects, or whether the state can prove premeditation.
