(Part 1) Lindsay Clancy case thoughts: 1.) I won’t debate this as this is not a Phil. 4:8 matter and should not demand too much attention or affection. 2.) If you are not familiar with the story, then I would recommend you to keep scrolling. I have researched enough, hopefully, to shed some light and not just generate heat. 3.) If you are prone to conspiracies as your way of dealing with reality, I do not have time to inform. Be careful of sensational and inconsistent information online. Nobody with any knowledge of the case is considering another character. Be careful not to engage in slander. Imagine if this was you and someone was wrongly blaming you. She confessed. It is clear. 4.) All murder has some connection to mental illness. Was Jeffrey Dahmer not insane? Even if Lindsay was struggling, she is still accountable for her actions. 5.) Even if she heard a voice, just that once in her life as she reported, she still had a choice to listen or reject that voice. She did not black out. She described what she heard and chose to do. At some point, she wanted to die and wanted her children to die with her. 6.) If she was remorseful and out of her mind when she did such wicked things, she would plead guilty and want the harshest consequence. She would donate the million dollars raised to postpartum psychosis research. 7.) If hormones are an excuse for women, then what about rage that is also hormonal for men and women? It is not an excuse. I talked with a man on the streets once looking for a prostitute who said that is why rapes and murder happen, because people like him struggled. 8.) I agree that our mental health system failed those children. She should have stayed committed and far away from those children. All the helpful things to alleviate her issues only prolonged the inevitable. We do need more mental health funding. The teledoc system with drug side effects and consequences like this needs to be regulated. Bring back the state hospitals and padded rooms. The streets are filled with the roaming mentally ill who should be committed and cared for. I have seen too many simple overnight committals and soon releases. We need to evaluate the medicine as well, as sometimes what is prescribed only makes matters worse. What she wants now should have been done before it was too late. She should have committed herself and stayed committed. She needed to put herself far away from a family if thoughts like that were being experienced. These are choices and there are consequences. 9.) There may be both drug and demonic influences here. Do not dismiss the physical or supernatural elements. Drugs open up the spiritual realm. The devil is out to steal, kill, and to destroy. Just because the enemy deceives, we are still accountable. Ask Eve. 10.) She cannot be rehabilitated or released. She needs the death penalty, but in the absence of such in the state of Massachusetts, she needs life imprisonment without the possibility of parole. Nobody should ever be released into society having done something like that. Justice serves as a deterrent. Any loosening on this will only serve to remove what could be a final warning in the conscience of someone faced with this same decision. I am glad one juror stood for what was right. There was indeed borderline juror intimidation happening before our eyes. One of the thieves by the Lord at the cross railed Jesus and demanded release. The one realized he was guilty of what was wrong and suffering the due punishment. The good news is that the repentant thief was redeemed and spent that day with Jesus in paradise. The good news for Lindsay is not escaping consequences here but that through His shed blood she can be cleansed and receive eternal life. Jesus did not pull the repentant thief down from the cross but He did welcome Him into eternity.
