Lindsay Clancy did not plan her children’s murders the day she did it.

She started laying the groundwork for a trial 5 months prior. How do I know? The evidence is clear if you look through a nurse’s eyes.

As an RN, the first thing we’re taught is that “if you didn’t document it, it didn’t happen” in regards to patient care. Lindsay was an L&D nurse. She heard that line in school and on every unit she ever worked.

Callan was only a few months old when she began “seeking treatment”. She told doctors she was depressed and anxious. She did not tell them she was suicidal or homicidal. She knew exactly what those words do. One statement of intent to harm herself or the kids and she is in a locked unit. If they even suspected she wanted to hurt anyone, it would have unleashed a chain reaction that would prevent her from completing her plan. She wanted freedom and she knew just what lines not to cross to reach that goal.

What she did do was write it down. Diary entries. Texts. Conversations with her husband and her mother. Thoughts of harming herself and the children. That paper trail exists for a reason. It is the documentation she knew a future jury would see.

For months the pattern held: disclose the dark thoughts to family and to a journal. Minimize or deny them to the people who could actually help.

Cycle through providers. We call that “doctor shopping” in the medical world and it’s a clear indicator of someone who wants specific medicines or is trying to avoid coordination between doctors. She KNEW the system and exactly how to use it.

Collect prescriptions. Zoloft, Prozac, Seroquel, Valium, Klonopin, Ativan, Lamictal, amitriptyline—thirteen medications, more than thirty prescriptions. A nurse knows which side effects to report to get a med changed or dose adjusted. The list itself became the evidence she wanted. We don’t know if she ever took any of them except on the day of the crime.

As a mom, if I were having actual thoughts of hurting my kids, I’d be the first one screaming it to every doctor, every nurse. I’d make sure I was locked away where I couldn’t actually hurt them. But not Lindsay. She did all she could to not be locked away.

When the Women & Infants postpartum program discharged her after one day because she didn’t fit the criteria, the calendar was not on her side. Callan was eight months old. The cleanest “postpartum psychosis” window was already gone. She had to execute sooner rather than later.

She planned it to the minute. As a nurse, she knew exactly how long it would take to strangle each child—about six minutes. She sent her husband on errands that would keep him out of the house long enough to kill all three and stage what was supposed to look like a suicide attempt.

Her medical education ensured she knew EXACTLY how deep and what direction to cut her wrists to ensure she wouldn’t bleed out. She knew EXACTLY how deep and where to cut her neck to avoid hitting the carotid arteries, the jugular veins, or compromise her airway. She even knew jumping out a 2nd story window wouldn’t be fatal but would look dramatic to a future jury. Every cut, every decision was calculated, cold, and with the medical training to execute the plan flawlessly (the injuries she sustained were a miscalculation from landing wrong, not the fall itself).

Lindsay Clancy is not a woman who “snapped with no warning.” or even one who was failed by her family and the healthcare system. She is a woman who spent months building a file and setting the stage so she could blame her crime on those very people while she could live out the childless life she dreamed of living.

But you’ll create a negative association!

There’s few messages which strike fear into the hearts of owners and trainers than the ominous, and seemingly obvious negative association that will inevitably be created if you correct a dob around a trigger. 

Except it’s 100% bullshit. 

In 20 years of doing this work I’ve yet to see it. 

Why? Because the premise, although sounding quite straightforward and convincing on the surface (which is where the moronic message pushers in the industry wish for you to remain), if one looks deeper at what’s actually happening, the premise of and the basis for the fear messaging fall apart. 

In this example one of my shadow students was asking about the dreaded negative association that would be created if a dog who had issues with kids (and who would fixate, growl, lunge etc.) was corrected for getting into a negative headspace around kids. 

As I explained to them in this clip, the only negative association that is created is between the dog’s actions towards the kid—not between the dog and the kid. And that is the profoundly critical piece to understand. 

Why? Because the only thing that controls the consequence—whether it happens, when it stops, and how it’s avoided—has nothing to do with the presence of the kid. What controls the consequence? One thing only—the dog’s behavior towards the kid, or the dog’s behavior towards whatever the trigger might be.   

If you can truly process this, you can free yourself from the nonsensical fear messaging that has consumed the majority of ignorant balanced trainers (or indoctrination parroting force-free trainers), or well-intentioned but easily manipulated owners. 

Keep this stuff simple. Is it the kid, the dog, the bike, the skateboarder, the stranger, the whatever… that controls the consequence, or is it solely the dog’s response to the trigger? This isn’t a tough answer to come up with—not if you take a moment and truly think this stuff through. Which once again, most trainers are hoping you won’t do the extra mental work to explore this any deeper than the simple “Don’t do this, or bad things will happen!”

This should have been done long ago. So sick of Congress acting like they rule over us! They work for us but have managed to conveniently forget this!!

President Trump is asking everyone to share this, in three days, most people in the United States will have seen the message. This is an idea that should be passed around, regardless of political party.

The TRUMP Rules:

1. Tenure / No Pension. A Congressman/woman collects a salary while in office and receives no pay when they're out of office. And no more perks go with them.

2. Congress (past, present, & future) participates in Social Security. All funds in the Congressional retirement fund move to the Social Security system immediately. All future funds flow into the Social Security system, and Congress participates with the American people. It may not be used for any other purpose.

3. Congress must purchase their own retirement plan, just as ALL Americans do.

4. Congress will no longer vote themselves a pay raise. Congressional pay will rise at the same rate as the COLA for monthly Social Security recipients minus 1% if having a budget balance deficit.

5. Congress loses their current health care system and participates in the same health care system (Medicare) as the American people.

6. Congress must equally abide by all laws they impose on the American people (i.e. NO MORE INSIDER TRADING!!!).

7. All contracts with past and present Congressmen/women are void. The American people did not make this contract with Congressmen/women. Congress made all these contracts by and for themselves.
Serving in Congress is an honor and privilege, NOT a career.

The Founding Fathers envisioned citizen legislators should serve their term(s), then go home and go back to work … not get all kinds of freebies. Term limits of 2 terms and treat them like a regular citizen.

Elon Musk: "If anyone would know if there are aliens among us, it would be me, and we have 9000 satellites up there, and not once have we had to maneuver around an alien spaceship."

[Lake_Country_Dog_Walking @LC_Dog_Walking]

@joeroganhq Maybe they are already here and have been here all along? Maybe we are actually the original aliens? Besides, you would think Elon knows they use wormholes and do teleporting so they don’t bump into his satellites.

@_Qstormrider Isn’t this pretty much just a click bait post since in the same space the news that the scans were normal could have been said, and that’s not really news since Trump has always said he was healthy

@Jennifer55gt If the tip is required, which according to their posted rules it is, then it is not a tip according to the new IRS rules and should be taxed!

[✞🎀TrumpGirlOnFire 🔥 @TrumpGirlOnFire]

Marco Rubio just dropped the truth bomb — Americans grind 40+ years, pay into the system, follow every rule… and retire broke on $800-$1,000 a month.

Meanwhile, new arrivals who never paid a dime allegedly get MORE from the same system? This isn’t compassion. It’s a slap in the face to every taxpayer who built this country.

@SarahWorkx It is the pin that holds a watch band on the watch face

@Avabelly__ Well, did you take your dog to his yard to poop?

[Commentary 🇺🇸 Tom Homan @HomanNews]

💥 KABOOM 💥🚨

Marco Rubio just said something that’s blowing up online.

He pointed to Americans who worked their entire lives, only to retire on $800–$1,000 a month in Social Security.

Then compared it to claims that some new arrivals receive higher monthly benefits.

Read that again.

Worked your whole life…
Less support.

Just arrived…
More support?

🇺🇸🔥

This is why the debate over benefits, fairness, and government priorities is EXPLODING right now.

People are asking:

Who comes first?

America First — that’s the message.

Watch closely.

@HomanNews 1000 a month is a rip off, the worst investment advice could probably give a better return, it’s because politicians disrespect seniors, I would vote for Putin if he ran on doubling it

[Lake_Country_Dog_Walking @LC_Dog_Walking]

@StateDept They don’t always actually ask questions, they use the opportunity to make unfounded statements and because of the nonsense this becomes they can shut you up when you try to set the record straight

[Lake_Country_Dog_Walking @LC_Dog_Walking]

@RealAlexJones I saw it featured on TV many years ago, but the secret might be what else is there other than records. Seems like in the modern era we could just put “records” on digital media.

Imagine if some incredible giant from another species picked you up and just stared at you for a while. Would you be so happy at the prospect, so trusting, so downright cool?

Dogs are God’s most unique gift to us. Just the most wonderful little things.

The Regan airport is in use, public should not have to wait for NTSB to finish, data should be released in real time. There were several things that should have kept this from happening.

@JDVanceNewsX Are drug companies donating to Sen Warren

@JDVanceNewsX Why in the hearing just now is Sen Warren so concerned about drug companies not being sued?
