According to Lindsay Clancy’s ex-husband, Patrick Clancy, Lindsay’s mental health deteriorated after the birth of their third child, Callan. On November 3, 2022, two months before she strangled her three kids, Cora, 5, Dawson, 3, and Callan, 8 months old, Lindsay opened her phone’s Notes app and wrote a heartfelt note. In a lengthy journal-like entry, Lindsay expressed her wish to have another kid after Callan. At the same time, she also wanted to consult a therapist before embracing motherhood for the fourth time. The secret note can be read as:
“I really want a fourth child, but I need a good therapist before then. I don’t want Cal to be our last, but I have a lot of figuring out to do.”
