This is Dawson William Clancy. đ He was only 3 years old.
During Dawsonâs autopsy testimony, Medical Examiner Dr. Barbara Olson described trauma to his neck and petechial hemorrhaging inside his mouth, around his eyes and across his face. She described a horizontal ligature furrow around his neck, along with abrasions associated with it.
The prosecutor specifically pointed out that the petechial hemorrhaging across Dawsonâs face appeared darker and more extensive than what was seen on his sister Cora.
Dr. Olson agreed: the hemorrhaging was more prominent in Dawson.
She explained that this indicated there were moments during the compression when blood was able to push through, causing increases in pressure and additional hemorrhaging.
When prosecutors asked what could cause that movement, Dr. Olson explained that it could come from movement of the ligature, movement of the person handling the ligature â or movement of Dawson himself.
Reporting from the courtroom summarized her testimony as saying Dawsonâs hemorrhaging could have resulted from him struggling or from changes in the pressure of the ligature.
That testimony is incredibly difficult to hear when you remember we are talking about a 3-year-old little boy.
And then there is a Facebook post Lindsay made about Dawson years earlier.
When Dawson was 19 months old, Lindsay wrote in a parenting group:
âMy 19-month-old is the most difficult human I have ever encountered.â
She went on to say that she meant it with love but couldnât make it through a day without becoming frustrated with him and wrote:
âEVERY. SINGLE. THING. with him is a battle.â
She described battles over diaper changes, getting dressed, putting on shoes and a jacket, and getting in and out of his car seat. She wrote that he fought her âevery step of the way.â
Knowing what ultimately happened to this little boy makes those words extraordinarily difficult to read now.
Dawson wasnât a diagnosis.
He wasnât a piece of evidence.
He wasnât simply âone of the Clancy children.â
He was Dawson.
He was 3 years old.
He deserved birthdays, first days of school, scraped knees, Christmas mornings, baseball games, teenage years and an entire lifetime that he never got to have.
Whatever verdict comes back in this case, please donât let the person on trial become more important than the children whose lives were taken.
Remember Dawson William Clancy.
Cora was five. That is the detail that stays with you.
Unlike Dawson, who was three, or Callan, who was eight months old and still lived in a world of warmth, milk, and faces that meant safety, Cora had already crossed the threshold where a child begins to understand. She knew her motherâs voice. She knew the person strangling her was supposed to protect her.
In her final terrifying moments she would have understood that something was terribly wrong. The person she trusted most had become the source of her terror. A five year old can recognize danger, feel the shift from comfort to threat, and look into a familiar face that no longer matches the love she expected. That sudden, complete betrayal is almost unbearable to imagine. Horrifying.
Dawson and Callan were spared that knowledge. Cora was not. She was old enough to know what was happening, and that knowledge makes her death twice a brutal.
Justice for Cora, Dawson, and Callan.
@rachelknows26@circlingthe_sun lady you will get sued for your claims and it doesnât matter if you delete your posts. seek help you stupid bitch imagine your husband( a stupid cunt like you probably donât have one) kills your kid and every one accuses you
I donât have an issue with Kevin Reddington, I actually find a lot of his shit funny, but letâs stop acting like heâs some post partum hero. Iâm certain he wasnât worried about hers when he defended the people behind this killing
Ladies: YOUâRE PATHETIC sweating him.
@fitat40guy fr, she was financially stable she had 18 weeks of maternity leave which she could extend she didnât even work prior to the event they had a nanny husband work from home and tons of health care providers etc⊠and yet poor child murderer lindsay didnât got any helpâčïž disgusting.
@Heathereu9c@Chamber4Secret@aflacky33 how do you know heather were you the lead officer in this investigation ? in which unit did you work? what was your job? other than commenting on social media ? stupid bitch
@fitat40guy@GogIvanka@operationX69420 this! every woman should be subject to the help they need, but in this case LC got plenty of help, she got a lot to hold on, and she was an L&B nurse if she saw those signs in herself she would tell her medical care providers. but that doesnât change her crimes anyway.
@fitat40guy@GogIvanka@operationX69420 the psychological prejudice on that family must be crazy. I hope they are doing well. God rest the souls of those innocent souls. May they have the Justice they so deserve 2/2
Lindsay Clancy strangled her three kids in the basement on January 24, 2023, then jumped out a window. Her lawyers donât even dispute that she did it. The trial is about whether postpartum psychosis means she isnât criminally responsible.
Meanwhile TikTok decided the real story is that her husband Patrick murdered them and framed her.
He left the house around 5:15. Heâs on CVS camera at 5:32. Heâs at the restaurant at 5:54. He called 911 after 6:10 when he found her outside and then found the children. Phone records and autopsy timing are already in the file. That is not a âmissing 17 minutesâ mystery. That is a man running errands while his wife killed their babies.
Freedom of speech means the government canât lock you up for a hot take. It does not mean you can tell the internet a grieving father strangled his own children, hide behind âallegedly,â and act shocked when lawyers start collecting usernames.
Opinions are free.
Accusing a private person of murdering his kids without evidence is how you get served.
Tick tock.
(This also goes for the Candace cult as well. I hope they are taking down names)
@GogIvanka@Vanished1_03 Patricks asks lindsay where are the kids the operator on the phone hears it and reports to the responding unit that there is a missing kid situation. did you get it ? or are you really that stupid
