A bunch of people with too much TikTok screen time are so obsessed with their “true crime” stuff that they think real life tragedies are their fun little stories they can make fan theories about.

I don’t know much about the case, what I do know is that the people who’ve tried to persuade me (despite neither knowing nor really caring) about why Clancy is guilty have exclusively made arguments that go against basic civil rights and burden of proof ideas. If everyone seems to think we have to throw out the idea of culpable mental states to get a conviction, then that makes me very wary of the idea there should be a conviction.

I’ve yet to see anyone defend her who isn’t just some extremely online individual. She’s been brought up ONCE by an irl friend and it was more talking about very copious amounts of astroturfed accounts pushing literal misogyny by making it seem like there is some concerted effort by “women” to defend her on the grounds of “postpartum”.

Has anyone else seen ppl blame her husband for the murders? They’re claiming he did it to get out of the marriage or whatever…while ignoring she admitted to the murders…

Mother who recently went on trial because of the murder of her 3 kids. It’s considered kind of a contentious case right now because at the time she was suffering from intense mental health issues as a result of PPD

My pov is she killed her 3 kids in a mental health episode and ppl raised a million dollars for her on gofundme. I really dont get it like i get it was a mental health thing but murdering your own children is just… gross imo. I work with children and am passionate about it so maybe i have a bias

I think there’s a distinct difference here in what it means to “defend her”. Her defense is pleading insanity. That is plausible. That however is completely different from the people who are claiming her husband secretly did it and framed her.

100% agree with on the latter part! The whole “the husband did it” or even just blaming the husband as though he should have seen it coming is disgusting, I’ve had to tell one person in my life to quit that bullshit around me. What I’ve personally seen is a lot of people basically saying the insanity defense shouldn’t exist and that her mental illness is something she should be blamed and punished for in itself, which is also appalling.

No I totally get you! It’s completely normal to have icky feelings about criminal defense in general, especially in really horrific situations like this one. I think there’s a lot of dimensions to this and which one each person focuses on is going to make it really disconcerting when people prioritize a different facet.

Yeah the husband theories are weird. I don’t know more than like the cliffs notes version of this case so I try not to speak about it in depth too much but the people coming up with the TikTok detective-esque theories strike me as very disrespectful.
