TikTok Mob Now Stalks Clancy Holdout Juror’s Family

Authored by Steve Watson via Modernity News,

The same online machine that turned a confessed child killer into a cause has a new target. After hanging Lindsay Clancy’s murder trial, the lone holdout juror’s family says TikTok extremists have them trapped indoors, leaving notes at his mother’s house and refusing to let them live in peace.

The juror’s brother told the New York Post that the family’s life has been flipped over since the September 4 mistrial in Plymouth, Massachusetts. He rejected the claim that Catholic faith drove the holdout vote.

“I don’t think religion had anything to do with it,” he said. “He looked at the case, and he made the call. For me, that’s how I would do it. I would just listen to the case with all the evidence, and go from there.”

“My family cannot leave the house,” the brother said. “They are leaving notes at my mother’s house. They won’t leave us alone, and we don’t know anything.”

He added that none of them even knew their relative was on the jury until after the verdict collapsed. “We didn’t know. That’s why I was shocked. He didn’t tell us anything.”

Clancy, 36, admitted strangling her children – Cora, 5, Dawson, 3, and 8-month-old Callan – with exercise bands in the basement of the family’s Duxbury home on January 24, 2023, while Patrick Clancy was out on an errand she had sent him on. She then cut her wrists and neck and jumped from a second-story window.

The defense never disputed the killings. Attorney Kevin Reddington argued postpartum psychosis and no criminal responsibility. Prosecutors said she cleared the house, chose a method that worked on the children, and chose a method for herself that failed.

After 21 days of testimony, more than 80 witnesses, and nearly 40 hours of deliberations, the panel split 11-1. Judge William Sullivan declared a mistrial. District Attorney Tim Cruz has a status hearing set for September 29 on whether to retry.

Reddington blamed the holdout in public. “They know they were robbed by one man, for whatever his agenda was,” he said. “I hope that guy can sleep well at night.”

Fellow jurors have since gone on television to attack him. One described wrapping an exercise band around a water bottle in the deliberation room. Others said he would not “follow the law” on reasonable doubt. What they will not say is the simpler point: one juror would not treat the strangling of three children as a medical event.

A GiveSendGo launched for security, lawyers, and lost work shot past $80,000 and, according to the Post, raced toward six figures. Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis offered the juror “asylum” if the harassment continued. “A man objected to allowing a woman to kill her three young kids and get away with it, so NBC is trying to smear that juror,” DeSantis wrote.

as we previously highlighted, during the trial hundreds of women in pink have been gathering outside Plymouth Superior Court for a “Stand in Peace.” They cheered Clancy’s transport. Organizer Renee Kimball said, “I think that every one of us women believe that it could be any one of us.” Another supporter put it on camera: “It could be me.”

The same cohort poured money into a GoFundMe for Clancy’s parents that raced toward seven figures. TikTok mothers filmed themselves “relating” to the confessed killer while holding their own infants. Some insisted Patrick must have done it – in spite of Lindsay’s admissions, her lawyer’s opening, the 911 tape, and the civil lawsuit that says she killed the children.

That inversion did not stay on the internet.

Patrick Clancy sat through the trial as the prosecution’s first witness. He described coming home with food and medicine to find his children gone. He has said he forgives Lindsay and calls her ill rather than evil.

His reward has been a smear campaign claiming he was involved. Attorney Howard Cooper of Todd & Weld called it “a relentless, escalating and destructive defamation campaign” driven by “minor celebrities, so-called influencers and outright conspiracy theorists.”

“This campaign, now fueled by insatiable media coverage, remains at a fever pitch and has resulted in real-life threats to his reputation, livelihood, and life,” Cooper said. “Enough is enough – this spread of blatant and baseless falsehoods must stop.” Law enforcement has been notified.

Attorney David Meier said after the mistrial: “The loss of Patrick’s children is something from which he will never recover and from which there will never be closure. The prospect of reliving this tragedy through another trial is extraordinarily painful.”

While the Clancy jury was still out, Corie Walsh of Frankfort, Illinois, hanged her 2-year-old son, Barrett, from a basement rafter. She told police the boy was the “devil” and the “anti-Christ.” Witnesses said she had become “very invested” in the Clancy trial and was still texting friends about it hours before the child was found.

Her lawyer, Andrea Lyon, reached for the same line the pink shirts have been rehearsing: “It is also a tragedy in that Corey herself was experiencing a psychotic episode at the time this happened.” Prosecutors said she spoke of harming the remaining children and her husband.

Rep. Nancy Mace, speaking to TMZ DC, called Clancy a “serial killer” and said the country should watch the penalty.

“Her children are dead. She should be dead too,” she said. “She should get the death penalty. It should be public. It should be a public execution.”

However, Massachusetts has not executed anyone since 1947. First-degree murder there is life without parole.

Reddington went on Good Morning America and asked President Trump to pardon his client. “Mr. President, I would hope that you would consider this young lady and the person she is, what she’s been through, and consider a pardon,” he said. A president cannot erase a Massachusetts murder case. Trump treated it as the state matter it is.

After the mistrial he said Clancy “did a horrible, horrible thing,” that “there’ll be a price,” and that it would be “mental institution or jail or something.” Asked again after the pardon plea, he said: “There is no winner there. There’s no win no matter what you do. Three children are dead.”
