A Husband in the Aftermath of His Wife’s Unfathomable Act

A Husband in the Aftermath of His Wife’s Unfathomable Act

Start reading, pause, take a deep breath, continue, pause again, breathe, continue. I don’t have the words to describe this article, all I can say is that it’s worth your time. The article’s subhead reads: Patrick Clancy’s wife killed their children during a postpartum mental-health crisis. Prosecutors describe a clear-headed scheme, but Clancy says, «I wasn’t married to a monster—I was married to someone who got sick.»
