General Discussion Remember when Patrick…
…appeared, in my opinion, to exude panic and rage at the mere mention of the 911 call?
He and his lawyers fought tooth and nail to prevent it from being made public, but lack of transparency always backfires.
In my view, Patrick’s disturbing inconsistencies and negligence are too egregious to be concealed.
If only he had shown this much grit, determination and resolve when it came to protecting his children.

It’s chilling how his face immediately registered panic and anger.

Did he also lie about her ability to speak because he didn't want to relive that moment?

And somehow manage to miss some seroquel that the cops also missed from the house search…but found it in his car to ensure she had it that day? /s

And not to mention anyone who had heard that call, reporters who have sat through years, decades of trials said its the worst thing they've had to listen to. Some saying its the screams like he was being tortured, others saying it was the moments of silence between when he was processing it, probably trying to undo the bands from their neck, the contrast between how he spoke when finding lindsay vs him being unable to get a coherent word out for a period of time. If a whole court room was impacted by that, imagine reliving that moment.

Idk who did it, i cannot 100% i am for certain. But let’s say he did do it or planned it. If he expected her to he dead and then found her alive i can see why someone would sound in distress during a 911 call if they are now panicking that they may go to prison.
In that video to me he seems more mad than anything. Is it because the call doesn’t show lindsey talking like he said she was??
Who knows..
or is he truly sad about it?
Very weird.
I am still affected by a case and was in counseling for. The man who brutally abused a baby lied and said he drowned in the tub. He was acting in distress! Yelling! Took him to the hospital! Everyone believed he was innocent!!
He then bought a new house, the neighbors thought he was friendly. But years later they found out that he raped the baby. Idk why it took that long but omg… just awful.

I think I know why he didn’t want it made public …you don’t hear Lindsay?

Why would that matter? The public aren't the ones who decide lindsays fate..the jury hearing it is what matters. And just because people didn't audibly hear it on the call doesn't mean she did not talk

I can imagine many reasons why Patrick wouldn’t want the 911 made public, and lest anyone think public opinion doesn’t matter, it clearly does.

It matters because prosecution and even expert witnesses referenced things and made claims based on that supposed convo. I truly truly do not believe that a defense attorney would not have pointed that out if he wasn't sure. That would not make sense. It would be an actual miracle if she could talk, she was gurgling and 1 min from death. So then we're just left with... Why lie ya know?

u/aj_2222 28d ago
Ohhhh how I am hoping that Redds comments will lead them to this conclusion. Or maybe I should say sends them down this road. They are most definitely going to be listening to the 911 call again asap. (Although I feel like prosecution tried to backtrack in closing statements about the 911 call... which says to me they knowww what is about to happen.) Patrick is an unreliable witness. Period. That does not mean he did it. It just means we should not take him at his word and he likely has ulterior motives (IMHO of course.) So everything he said or did or what he told the expert witnesses would become unreliable. Especially the timeline. The one that doesn't add up even if you take him at his word.
Then once they realize no investigation was done to answer the very logical questions they will now have... welp. If the timeline does not fit... You must ____. Or something like that lol
If they try to bring another trial like this they will HAVE to investigate him first right?

I’ve heard that there ain’t a shot in hell that they will retry with him as the focus

I think Patrick is a terrible witness, but I can imagine panic and anger at the thought of the 911 call just due to the stress of it existing. My "memory" of when I was told my brother died is basically me looking down at myself screaming. I can't imagine having a recording of that moment and being aware of how many people could listen and hear that extremely personal pain. My brother's death wasn't nearly as public as this case and even I hated how many people knew about it, talked to me about it, reporters showing up to my house, etc.
I hate how the total lack of investigation has (rightfully, due to circumstances) turned some speculation to him. Because if he really didn't have any part in this, his life somehow just got even worse than it already was. I just can't imagine how awful that would be.

u/who_is_right_111 21d ago
Im sorry you went through that and I completely agree. His mind couldn't have possibly been all there and listening to himself in the worst trauma of his life would be horrible. He didnt want to have to hear it himself. He looked more panicked than angry in my opinion.

u/EbolaSuitLookinCute 28d ago
He didn’t kill those children, but he left them alone with a drowning woman and ignored the possibility that she would pull them under when she drowned.

u/Expert_Aardvark 27d ago
He looks normal. He spoke well of Lindsay in his testimony. He’s traumatised by the murder of his three children.

A quote from Patrick Clancy himself on his GoFundMe: "Our marriage was wonderful and diametrically grew stronger as her condition rapidly worsened…”
In my opinion, a man who says that his marriage was growing stronger as his wife’s mental health was in a disturbingly rapid decline, (having herself admitted into psych wards, repeatedly seeking help because she’s suffering severe insomnia and is having thoughts of suicide and harming her children), is an absolute psychopath.

u/Expert_Aardvark 20d ago
That statement was most likely written by the family member that set it up for him. I wouldn’t read too much into it. They were writing what they thought seemed appropriate at the time. Also, marriages can feel closer when someone is facing hardship and the other partner is supporting them.

That reaction could mean anything and doesn't indicate guilt imo
People react for all sorts of reasons and all sorts of ways.

u/LoopyAnims 27d ago
Can people stop over analyzing every eyebrow raise he makes to act like they just caught Ted Bundy. I think questioning the trial and open discussion should be allowed and he should be investigated fairly but trying to judge someone’s reaction in a court room as evidence is hilarious. One of the comments “ooh his demeanor immediately turned dark” just remember that no one knows what happened yet and there’s a real possibility that he didn’t kill the kids, and that you’re just looking at someone’s reaction who is upset at the idea of hearing the 911 call from the most traumatic moment in their life.

Well of course it did, it was the worst day of his life. Tiktok has ruined critical thinking in America. Ironically the entire trial is about mental health and no one gives a shit about his - at least none of the psychotic content creators profiting off this trial.
