There’s a saying that something is Peak X. The problem with that is that people are always able to go beyond. It continues to get worse. You thought liberal women were peak broke?
Women in pink rally in support of Lindsay Clancy at her trial for killing her 3 children
Hundreds of Lindsay Clancy supporters, many wearing pink clothing emblazoned with phrases such as “Believe,” “She Needed Help” and “Peace For Lindsay,” gathered Thursday outside the courthouse where she is on trial in the killings of her three children.
Several of the 300 women, and a few men, said Clancy’s story resonated with them and that they wanted to raise awareness about how the mental health system treats women. Clancy’s lawyer does not dispute that she killed the children, but says she should not be held criminally responsible because she was mentally ill.
The livestreamed trial has sparked massive discussions online and has brought attention to postpartum psychosis, a rare mental illness Clancy’s attorney Kevin Reddington says she had that is linked to the stress, sleep deprivation and hormonal changes that follow childbirth. Reddington said she also has bipolar disorder. After strangling her children, Clancy jumped from a second-story window and remains paralyzed from the waist down.
Her mom was helping out. Her husband was working from home. She’s been given all sorts of medical/psychological help. She contrived to send her husband away on errands and then murdered her 3 kids, ages 5 years, 3 years, and 8 months. Even if suffering from postpartum psychosis, there is zero reason for so many women to support her in this manner
They’re nuts
The insanity of the Lindsay Clancy sympathizers
…..
The case is harrowing. Yet a surprising number of women online are eager to put themselves in the accused murderer’s shoes. “Same, Lindsay” is trending on TikTok. The videos follow a template: a phone propped at an intimate, low angle, a woman rocking or nursing her own toddler against her chest, voice catching as on-screen text quotes lines lifted straight from Clancy’s personal diary entries – the same ones read aloud in Plymouth Superior Court – before the caption lands on “Same, Lindsay.”
After one such clip circulated, critics accused the creator of “fake crying” while “using Lindsay Clancy’s diary words read in court” as content. One account, @courageandchaosss, fired back at the backlash: “My children are the furthest from being in danger. They have one damn good mama.”
Another posted the caption “me when I had to ask the neighbor to bathe her because I thought I would drown her,” treating a private, terrifying thought as a bonding credential. From there, the videos curdle into acquittal theater: women film themselves “hanging out their windows” to argue Clancy’s innocence despite her own lawyer conceding she did it. Others insist “he killed the kids” – pointing at Patrick, who made the 911 call – or, in one case, claiming to have dreamed that Patrick abused Cora, captioned, “Hopefully Lindsay gets justice.” Some have simply declared her the winner of a trial that hasn’t ended because she “proved postpartum psychosis the moment she killed her 3 children.”
It’s worth reading the rest of that article (paywall removed here). These are the types of vids we are seeing (click the more tag)
And then this, which is linked
Does all this seem sane? There are many videos, and more and more coming online. Is this Peak Feminism 2026? What will 2027 bring? The amp is always turned up to 11, but, each year we seem to be using a bigger amplifier. We’re already seeing men dump their girlfriends over support of Clancy, will we see a bunch of divorce filings by men over the next few weeks, men who petition for sole custody over the unhinged videos supporting a child killer? Social media was the worst thing ever for these women, and, obviously, it’s not all. How many do feel the same as the protesters and video makers? That’s what’s concerning.
…slap a mental health label on it and ignore the cruelty. ?
Mental illness explains behavior it does not absolve anyone of attempted murder and torturing children. If we don’t demand accountability for mothers who harm their own kids, we are failing the most vulnerable people in the room. Stop making excuses for monsters.
We get it: it is the job of defense attorneys to do everything they can to get their clients off, or at least with the least actual punishment. But, reminiscent of the supporters of murderer Karmelo Anthony, we have soft headed Affluent White Female Urban Liberals supporting Mrs Clancy. I don’t recall such support for Susan Smith, but that was thirty years ago.
What every state needs is a “Guilty but Insane” verdict, so that nutjobs like Mrs Clancy will be imprisoned for their crimes, even if they are loony tunes.
Former University of Kentucky cheer Stunt Team member Laken Snelling just pleaded guilty to manslaughter and associated offenses in the death of her newborn. She delivered unexpectedly in her apartment, and the infant, who was born alive, was suffocated. At least she’s taking responsibility for her crime. Prosecutors have asked for a ten year sentence for Miss Snelling, along with one year each for the three other offenses, though the article does not say whether prosecutors are asking for concurrent or consecutive sentences. Under KRS 507.030(c), First Degree Manslaughter is a Class B felony, punishable by 10 to 20 years, while KRS 507.040 has Second Degree Manslaughter as a Class C Felony, punishable by 5 to 10 years.
The article does not tell us whether Miss Snelling pleaded guilty to first or second degree manslaughter. Sentencing is scheduled for October 16th, and the article does not tell us whether she was taken into custody — she had been out on bail — immediately upon pleading guilty.
