Remember when people were getting ahold of a bad batch of bath salts and started chewing random peoples faces off? That’s legit drug-induced psychosis. Uncontrollable, blacked out, out of their minds. Lindsay Clancey wasn’t blacked out in some state of psychosis and woke up to find herself paralyzed in her yard. She calculated her husband’s departure, brought her babies into the basement, and made the other children watch as she strangled them one-by-one before he could get back in time to stop her. When her husband found her, he asked her “what happened?” She told him that she tried to kill herself. She knew exactly what she was doing. She was well aware and coherent of her actions, and she made a choice to do what she did. Did a demon tell her to kill her children? Probably. Did she have the ability to make a choice and tell that demon no? Absolutely. We as a society cannot let this woman off of the hook, the consequences will be horrific, and it will result in thousands of more dead babies at the hands of mothers who feel “unsupported” or “overwhelmed”.
