Latest / Wicked Radio with Bill Adams / 10-7: Have The Lindsay Clancy Copycat Killers Arrived?
Transcript
- 0:04Speaker 1: I can't think of anything scarier than some sort of
- 0:07Speaker 1: a domestic situation where a mother attacks her own family.
- 0:10Speaker 1: I mean, truly. But we are in the Halloween season,
- 0:13Speaker 1: so this is a scary season anyway, but that's not
- 0:15Speaker 1: the only reason to talk about it. When there's a
- 0:17Speaker 1: pattern of this kind of stuff, and yes, of course,
- 0:20Speaker 1: we're all aware of the Lindsay Clancy case and trial.
- 0:23Speaker 1: When there's a pattern of this kind of stuff happening,
- 0:25Speaker 1: which is horrific, and they're well aware of, and the
- 0:29Speaker 1: Lindsay Clancy case is actually mentioned... And in the investigation,
- 0:35Speaker 1: all right, that's a pattern worth asking a question. So
- 0:39Speaker 1: I'll ask it. Have we seen the arrival of the
- 0:42Speaker 1: Lindsay Clancy copycat killers? This is a horrific thing. I mean, obviously.
- 0:47Speaker 1: But it is going on. It is a story. And
- 0:50Speaker 1: we've got another one. It's worth asking. I think it
- 0:54Speaker 1: truly is. Patterns don't happen by mistake. There are no coincidences.
- 1:01Speaker 1: All right, and is it true? Let's get this out
- 1:03Speaker 1: of the way right now. Because of the Lindsay Clancy case,
- 1:07Speaker 1: is any horrific story that's out there of a mother
- 1:10Speaker 1: attacking her family or killing kids or anything else horrific
- 1:13Speaker 1: like that, is that going to get more attention? Of
- 1:14Speaker 1: course it is. But when that person specifically is aware
- 1:19Speaker 1: of what happened with the Lindsay Clancy trial, it's a
- 1:21Speaker 1: question worth asking. So I'm going to ask it. So
- 1:23Speaker 1: let's get to it. Let's find out what's going on
- 1:25Speaker 1: with this one and this latest horrific story. It's not
- 1:28Speaker 1: nice stuff, I'm telling you, but Again, I think it's
- 1:30Speaker 1: a question. Thanks for finding Wicked Radio on the live stream,
- 1:32Speaker 1: 8 a.m. Eastern Time, Monday through Friday on X and
- 1:35Speaker 1: YouTube and Facebook, and the audio podcast always uploaded shortly
- 1:38Speaker 1: after the live stream. Let's get right to it. This
- 1:40Speaker 1: is the latest case. It's got to go to North Lake,
- 1:43Speaker 1: Texas for this one. Just absolutely awful. And then we'll
- 1:48Speaker 1: get some details in it where I'll try to get
- 1:50Speaker 1: the details on what's going on here and stay away
- 1:53Speaker 1: from the gratuitous violence stuff and the description of it.
- 1:57Speaker 1: I'll try my best to get into it, but here
- 1:58Speaker 1: it was just yesterday.
- 2:00Speaker 2: Attempted capital murder after police say she stabbed her husband
- 2:03Speaker 2: and her two young children. Hello, everybody. I'm Heather Hayes.
- 2:07Speaker 2: All three victims survived the attack. Fox 4's Alex Boye
- 2:10Speaker 2: joining us now live with more from North Lake. This
- 2:13Speaker 2: is north of Fort Worth. Alex.
- 2:15Speaker 1: Hi, Heather. You know, I haven't... Oh, hi, Heather. I
- 2:18Speaker 1: love TV news people. They still do this. Horrific triple homicide, death,
- 2:22Speaker 1: and attempted murder, and blah, blah, blah. Oh, hi. Good morning, everybody. Yeah, right.
- 2:25Speaker 1: All right, here's the details. The takeaway there is the
- 2:28Speaker 1: good news is everybody in the family survived. So in
- 2:32Speaker 1: another horrific story that's in the news, let's take the
- 2:35Speaker 1: good news there that they survived. Let's at least get that.
- 2:38Speaker 1: Here's the actual sheriff in North Lake, Texas, talking about it.
- 2:42Speaker 3: It's 2026 at approximately 420 a.m. Officers were dispatched to
- 2:47Speaker 3: a residence in the 1200 block of Daylily Drive regarding
- 2:50Speaker 3: a stabbing in progress. Denton County Sheriff's Office Communications advised
- 2:54Speaker 3: that a male subject was reporting that his wife, had
- 2:57Speaker 3: a knife and had stabbed him. Officers arrived within minutes
- 3:00Speaker 3: at the location and detained an adult female. Officers completed
- 3:04Speaker 3: a protective sweep of the residence and discovered two small
- 3:08Speaker 3: children who survived.
- 3:09Speaker 1: Let's remember the good news here, okay? So that's okay.
- 3:12Speaker 1: It's tough to find good news and a bright little
- 3:15Speaker 1: glimpse of hope in anything that bad, but they did survive,
- 3:17Speaker 1: so that's great news. Let me just ask you this.
- 3:21Speaker 1: So you had this story just now on October 6th.
- 3:26Speaker 1: Months after the Lindsay Clancy trial, years after that killing,
- 3:30Speaker 1: let's keep that in mind in the timeline here, which
- 3:32Speaker 1: is always important, a young mom, Holly Flores, in North Lake, Texas,
- 3:36Speaker 1: I think she's late 20s, maybe early 30s. What do
- 3:40Speaker 1: you think the odds are that she wasn't aware of
- 3:42Speaker 1: the Lindsay Clancy trial or story or even heard about her?
- 3:48Speaker 1: I would put it at slim to none that that
- 3:51Speaker 1: lady isn't on TikTok or Instagram or finding out about this,
- 3:55Speaker 1: seeing all the TikTok videos of, we all saw them,
- 3:58Speaker 1: the tens of thousands of videos defending Lindsay Clancy and
- 4:01Speaker 1: all that other stuff, no matter how you feel about
- 4:02Speaker 1: that stuff. What are the odds that this Holly Flores,
- 4:05Speaker 1: the latest one, wasn't at least aware of that case?
- 4:09Speaker 1: I'd put it next to zero, okay? Didn't come out
- 4:12Speaker 1: and say she was inspired by this, didn't even make
- 4:14Speaker 1: a statement yet, but others have, okay? We gotta go
- 4:18Speaker 1: back to this one. This one is another horrific story.
- 4:21Speaker 1: This is Corey Walsh, in Illinois you might have heard
- 4:26Speaker 1: about this one this is a little bit different this
- 4:29Speaker 1: is a suspect an accused murderer who specifically said she
- 4:35Speaker 1: was in the word that's being thrown around in this
- 4:37Speaker 1: case out of Illinois is inspired by the Lindsay Clancy
- 4:41Speaker 1: case what how could that be even the mainstream networks
- 4:47Speaker 1: are saying that.
- 4:47Speaker 4: The Illinois mom now charged with murder of her two-year-old son.
- 4:51Speaker 4: Witnesses told investigators she had become very invested in the
- 4:55Speaker 4: Lindsay Clancy case. Her attorney says she was suffering from
- 4:58Speaker 4: a psychotic episode.
- 5:00Speaker 1: I should say so. Now, it's pretty amazing and pretty
- 5:04Speaker 1: outstanding in the details here that she literally had admitted
- 5:10Speaker 1: how invested she was in the Lindsay Clancy case. That's
- 5:13Speaker 1: a little bit different here. That was the first one
- 5:15Speaker 1: that woke everybody up to this and said, yeah, this
- 5:19Speaker 1: is something more than just some random one-off. She's about 40,
- 5:24Speaker 1: and I'm not going to get into the details of
- 5:27Speaker 1: what she did. It's too horrific to even talk about.
- 5:29Speaker 1: And the court proceedings revealed that she was very invested
- 5:36Speaker 1: in the Lindsay Clancy trial, and discussing it in a
- 5:38Speaker 1: group text with friends... as recently as hours before police arrived.
- 5:43Speaker 1: This is all from the court proceedings and admitted to
- 5:47Speaker 1: by the defense attorneys that that was there. Okay? That's
- 5:52Speaker 1: a little bit different. I'll go back to the introduction
- 5:54Speaker 1: of what I said there. Any of these horrific cases
- 5:56Speaker 1: of a mom attacking kids or family members, is it
- 5:59Speaker 1: going to get heightened attention now? Of course it is.
- 6:01Speaker 1: Had these cases happened before the world ever heard of
- 6:04Speaker 1: Lindsay Clancy?
- 6:04Speaker 2: Of course.
- 6:06Speaker 1: Absolutely they did. All of this is true. But you
- 6:09Speaker 1: can't deny patterns. Here's another one for you. Jeanette McCausland,
- 6:17Speaker 1: interestingly enough, another Massachusetts mom. She is charged with another
- 6:23Speaker 1: murder case. I'm not going to get into the details.
- 6:25Speaker 1: It's horrific. And then reportedly went to a relative's home
- 6:30Speaker 1: in Vermont and confessed to it. Now, what's important here
- 6:34Speaker 1: is The killings occurred months before Lindsey Clancy's trial began,
- 6:39Speaker 1: and the defense attorneys have been outwardly saying that and
- 6:42Speaker 1: making sure that the world knows that. The killings happened
- 6:44Speaker 1: months before Lindsey Clancy's trial began, so it's got nothing
- 6:48Speaker 1: to do with that. They're trying to make you believe
- 6:51Speaker 1: before the trial began, but not before the murders. The
- 6:55Speaker 1: Lindsey Clancy murders happened in 2023. This Jeanette McCausland story
- 7:02Speaker 1: was in April of 26th. So yeah, before the Lindsey
- 7:06Speaker 1: Clancy trial, and we're as most known, but the story
- 7:09Speaker 1: was still out there that some suspect named Lindsey Clancy
- 7:13Speaker 1: is accused of killing her kids. The story was already out.
- 7:17Speaker 1: If that's not enough for you to see a pattern,
- 7:19Speaker 1: I don't know what will. But here's the defense attorney
- 7:21Speaker 1: who's amazing in this. He's not amazing. His reasoning is amazing.
- 7:26Speaker 1: This was just outside of one of the first court
- 7:28Speaker 1: proceedings here when they were trying to set bail, and
- 7:30Speaker 1: what he actually said about this thing, and specifically mentioned...
- 7:34Speaker 1: And talking about his client is Jeanette McCausland out of Massachusetts. Well,
- 7:40Speaker 1: this has nothing to do with Lindsay Clancy. Okay, she
- 7:44Speaker 1: was aware of it, though.
- 7:45Speaker 3: With conditions, I.
- 7:47Speaker 5: Would suggest that reasonable bail would be $ 25, 000. This is
- 7:52Speaker 5: not Lindsay Clancy 2.0. Jeanette McCausland is.
- 7:56Speaker 3: Her own woman.
- 7:56Speaker 5: But there's been a discussion, a discourse that's opened up
- 8:01Speaker 5: in this country about whether or not we want to criminalize...
- 8:05Speaker 5: mental illness and i'm hoping that this district attorney's.
- 8:09Speaker 1: Office interesting as he's trying to get uh you know
- 8:12Speaker 1: lower bail and better conditions while she's waiting trial and
- 8:15Speaker 1: all that stuff interesting though interesting that jeanette mccausland much
- 8:20Speaker 1: lesser known case throughout the nation that her attorney specifically
- 8:24Speaker 1: mentioned lindsey clancy to try to distance this story and
- 8:29Speaker 1: the similarities away from that and made the point to
- 8:31Speaker 1: say that no this is months before months before the
- 8:37Speaker 1: Lindsay Clancy trial, but not before the Lindsay Clancy case,
- 8:41Speaker 1: you know what I'm saying? I would be willing to
- 8:43Speaker 1: bet a lot of money that Jeanette McCausland had heard
- 8:46Speaker 1: about the Lindsay Clancy crime before the trial even happened.
- 8:49Speaker 1: There's too much here. There's too much here for this
- 8:52Speaker 1: not to be coincidental, for this to be coincidental. Patterns matter.
- 8:56Speaker 1: Recognition of this kind of stuff matters. But the real
- 8:59Speaker 1: shame in all of this, I still think, which is
- 9:01Speaker 1: amazing to me throughout all of this, And it always happens,
- 9:04Speaker 1: and especially in social media now. Now, I'll go back
- 9:07Speaker 1: to the Lindsay Clancy trial here for a second. They
- 9:09Speaker 1: were getting close. They were getting close as the whole
- 9:12Speaker 1: country paid attention to that thing. And they started to
- 9:14Speaker 1: talk about the overprescription of the psychotic drug she was on.
- 9:18Speaker 1: They were getting close. They had some of the attorneys
- 9:20Speaker 1: on there kind of grilling some of the doctors she
- 9:23Speaker 1: had gone to. And obviously, she was doctor shopping. And
- 9:25Speaker 1: we all know that she was overprescribed. But in all
- 9:27Speaker 1: of these cases, it gets so sensationalized, we skip over
- 9:31Speaker 1: what may be, and I don't know, I'm just asking questions.
- 9:33Speaker 1: That's what I do. What may be the course and
- 9:35Speaker 1: the cause of this entire thing? What drugs are these
- 9:39Speaker 1: women on? What drugs are other people on that is
- 9:42Speaker 1: causing them to do this kind of thing? So if
- 9:44Speaker 1: you have the question, this is why I think it's
- 9:46Speaker 1: a relevant question. I truly, truly do. If you have
- 9:50Speaker 1: that going on in the psychiatric industry, and you have
- 9:54Speaker 1: so much media attention put on specific cases where mothers
- 9:59Speaker 1: are killing kids and families, or are trying to anyway,
- 10:02Speaker 1: something that horrific. That's not a question worth asking? You
- 10:06Speaker 1: couldn't actually see that happen? Obviously, the defense in the
- 10:10Speaker 1: Lindsay Clancy thing was postpartum, and you don't understand how
- 10:13Speaker 1: bad that is. And I understand all of that. I
- 10:16Speaker 1: get that. But now you've got what a lot of people,
- 10:20Speaker 1: they were scorned and laughed at for saying this. They said,
- 10:23Speaker 1: if you keep letting this go run amok and you
- 10:25Speaker 1: have tens of thousands of TikTok and Instagram videos of women, remember,
- 10:30Speaker 1: we are all Lindsay Clancy. Now they're all saying, we're
- 10:33Speaker 1: all now the Cornell 7 as they moved on to
- 10:35Speaker 1: something else. You got all of that happening. First of all,
- 10:39Speaker 1: they completely glossed over the cause of this issue, which
- 10:42Speaker 1: may be the psychiatric industry. Don't know. What's going on here?
- 10:47Speaker 1: Or we're not treating it properly or whatever. And you also,
- 10:50Speaker 1: when you do that and put that much social media
- 10:52Speaker 1: attention on anything, on any kind of behavior, you get
- 10:55Speaker 1: a real shot here where you're going to have copycat killers.
- 10:58Speaker 1: So that's the question. Have the Lindsay Clancy copycat killers arrived?
- 11:01Speaker 1: Are they here? Is it something else to watch out for?
- 11:05Speaker 1: I think maybe. The entire thing is horrific. And the
- 11:08Speaker 1: thing that really sucks about this is the victims are
- 11:10Speaker 1: always forgotten in the background. We saw it with the
- 11:13Speaker 1: Lindsay Clancy thing, and we're going to see it with
- 11:14Speaker 1: this Holly Flores already started with the Jeanette McCausland story here.
- 11:18Speaker 1: And there are many others that didn't get so much
- 11:20Speaker 1: media attention. The victims are always forgotten. In all of
- 11:22Speaker 1: these videos, all of the TikTok videos where they're all
- 11:25Speaker 1: stomping up and down, and we are Lindsay Clancy, you
- 11:27Speaker 1: don't understand. There was no sympathy for the kids. And
- 11:31Speaker 1: that's the real shame of it. As you become aware
- 11:33Speaker 1: of these stories, everybody seems to forget exactly who the
- 11:36Speaker 1: real victims here are, which means we don't get to
- 11:38Speaker 1: the cause of the problem. But patterns matter. Pattern recognition matters.
- 11:42Speaker 1: I don't know. We'll see. I don't know what's going
- 11:44Speaker 1: to happen. Well, it'll be interesting to see because there's
- 11:46Speaker 1: no statements made yet, and this story is so new
- 11:49Speaker 1: with Holly Flores outside of Dallas-Fort Worth area. There have
- 11:53Speaker 1: been no statements made, and I don't know what the
- 11:55Speaker 1: defense is going to be. And I don't know if
- 11:56Speaker 1: they'll even mention Lindsey Clancy, but too many similarities to
- 12:02Speaker 1: ignore that, so we'll see. I wish I had something
- 12:04Speaker 1: better to talk about on a Wednesday, but again, it
- 12:06Speaker 1: is a scary season anyway. Who knows what's going to happen?
- 12:09Speaker 1: Pay attention to it. Thanks for finding me. I appreciate
