Lindsay Clancy, 32, is a midwife in Massachusetts, USA.
Seven years ago, she and her boyfriend Patrick, who is similar in age and similar interests, registered their marriage in their hometown and officially ended their single life.
Since then, Lindsay has entered the state of "happy wife", and her Facebook album after marriage is basically full of photos of her and Patrick.
A year after their marriage, Lindsay and Patrick welcomed their eldest daughter, Cora, and quickly upgraded to a family of three.
In order for the baby to have a more comfortable and spacious growth environment, the couple discussed and decided to purchase a two-story small building with a yard in the suburbs.
After that, they moved to a secluded suburb with their daughter, turned the small courtyard into a playground, added swings, slides and toy trolleys, and spent their free time playing with the baby in the backyard.
In the next 5 years, Lindsay gave birth to two more babies, the eldest son Dawson is 3 years old this year, and the youngest son was born last year and is only 8 months old.
The couple often take their children to the countryside and the seaside for vacation...
Cora and Dawson siblings have a good relationship, and they hug each other silly at every turn...
Will also smile and help Lindsay coax his younger son...
In recent years, Lindsay has been immersed in a happy family life, and has posted on social platforms more than once to lament his luck in life...
But after the birth of her third child, Lindsay's temperament changed drastically...
She is no longer as gentle and patient as before, no longer cheerful and smiling, often depressed, crying inexplicably, and often insomnia, even if the child cries and noisies, she will ignore it.
Even Lindsay herself sensed something was wrong, and last July, six weeks after her youngest son was born, she posted on Facebook that she was overcoming her erratic mood and trying to keep her mind steady by exercising and eating healthily.
But Lindsey's self-treatment did not work well, and she later had to take a leave of absence to recuperate at home and participate in an intensive postpartum depression treatment program.
In recent months, she has been treated five days a week.
Patrick also chose to work from home and take care of Lindsay and her children around the clock.
But their efforts failed to prevent the tragedy...
On Tuesday, Patrick went out to pick up takeout, leaving Lindsay and her three children at home.
Only 25 minutes later, he hurried home, and as soon as he entered the doorway, he saw his wife lying on the lawn in the courtyard, unconscious and unable to move, and she was lying right opposite the window on the second floor...
Patrickton, feeling bad, rushed into the house, which was so quiet that he was suffocated. He climbed up to the second floor and saw all three children collapsed in the room, unconscious and bruised...
In panic, he called an ambulance, and neighbors who witnessed Lindsay jumping off the building informed the police...
After the medical staff arrived, Lindsay and her three children were resuscitated, but 5-year-old Cora and 3-year-old Dawson had no vital signs, and they could only try their best to rescue the little baby less than 1 year old and do cardiopulmonary resuscitation for him...
Subsequently, the three children and Lindsay were taken to the nearest hospital, and upon arrival at the hospital, the doctor pronounced Cora and Dawson dead, only the youngest son temporarily survived, but the condition remained critical, and he was taken by rescue aircraft to Boston Children's Hospital for continued treatment...
Lindsay, who jumped from the 6-meter-high second floor, was also revived, and she was diagnosed with a back injury and a torn neck and is currently being treated at Boston Hospital.
The results of the police investigation showed that Lindsey, who was at home alone, lost control of her emotions and committed suicide by jumping off a building after personally abusing and killing three children, but whether it was caused by postpartum depression needs further investigation...
Lindsay has been charged with most counts by the police, including murder, suffocation, and assault with a dangerous weapon, and will be arraigned by police once discharged.
Personally killed a pair of children who accompanied him day and night, the only surviving youngest son is still uncertain, and Lindsay does not know how to face himself and his family after waking up...
