🚨 LINDSAY CLANCY’S FRIENDS ARE BREAKING THEIR SILENCE… WHAT THEY ARE SAYING ABOUT THE MOTHER OF THREE AFTER THE TRAG3DY IS MAKING EVERYONE QUESTION THE TRUTH
Massachusetts mom Lindsay Clancy, who is accused of killing her three young kids, was described by friends and colleagues as a devoted parent who “lived and breathed” for her children, according to reports.
Those close to Clancy, and even strangers, voiced support for the mother in dozens of letters that were sent to her defense team and filed in court recently.
“I do not know a better mother than Lindsay Clancy,” coworker Erika Sevieri wrote,
Clancy, of the small coastal town Plymouth, is accused of planning out the strangulation of her trio of small kids inside their family home while her husband was out of the house for about 20 minute running errands, according to prosecutors.

Daughter Cora, 5, and 3-year-old Dawson died at the hospital in the aftermath of the attack while 7-month-old baby Callan died several days later. The children were found by their father with exercise bands still around their necks.

“Many of us have felt the darkness of postpartum depression, and for that reason we are able to empathize with Lindsay’s pain.”
Friend Amy Bevins said Clancy’s top priority was making sure her children felt “loved, safe, and happy,” Boston.com reported.
“I trusted her implicitly with the care of my own child over the past three and a half years,” Bevins wrote. “I am steadfast in my belief that her greatest joy was being a mom and watching her children grow.”
