Lindsay Clancy exchanged affectionate texts with her then husband, Patrick Clancy , on the morning prosecutors say she killed their three children inside their Duxbury, Massachusetts, home. The messages were presented during Thursday’s murder trial as Clancy’s defense questioned Massachusetts State Police cell forensics expert Timothy Chiappini. According to Chiappini’s testimony, Patrick began messaging Lindsay around 8:42 a.m. Lindsay sent a photo of 5 year old Cora and 3 year old Dawson beside a snowman, and Patrick replied by calling her “good mama”; Lindsay answered with smiley face and heart emojis. What Do the Texts Show? The couple also discussed dinner, with Lindsay asking whether Patrick wanted takeout because she had not cooked and had “been a long day.” Patrick agreed, and Lindsay responded, “Okie dokie,” followed by another smiling emoji. Prosecutors allege Lindsay strangled Cora, Dawson, and 8 month old Callan with exercise bands before cutting herself and jumping from a second story window in an alleged suicide attempt. Lindsay faces three first degree murder charges; her attorneys argue postpartum psychosis impaired her judgment, while prosecutors maintain she understood her actions. The children’s deaths and the psychiatric defense remain central issues in the ongoing Massachusetts trial.
