Let’s call it a psychiatric reckoning. Massachusetts nurse and mother, will have her day in court in January of 2026. Clancy killed her three small children in January of 2023 and tried to commit suicide by jumping out of the second-floor window of her Duxbury home.

The paralyzed Clancy, along with her attorney, Kevin Reddington, is fighting the three counts of premeditated murder charges the state has filed. And so, she should. Let’s be frank. Linsay Clancy had no reason to kill her children until she was provided psychiatric “assistance.”

According to records, Lindsay was experiencing “anxiety” about returning to work after the birth of her third child. Clancy sought help from “virtual therapy sessions” and was prescribed 13 mind-altering psychiatric drugs. Hell, at the time of her arrest, Clancy had seven mind-altering drugs in her system – three antidepressants, two sedatives, an antipsychotic and an anticonvulsant, including SSRI antidepressants, benzodiazepines and antipsychotic and antiseizure drugs. These include but are not limited to Prozac, Zoloft, Trazodone, Seroquel, Amitryptiline, Remeron, Valium, Klonopin, Ativan and Lamictal.

With the recent nomination of Robert F. Kennedy, Jr., to lead the Department of Health and Human Services, (HHS) the nation’s premier federal health agency, it’s important to remember Kennedy’s rising star began decades ago by exposing fraudulent medical/corporate research and food safety issues. In a sense, Kennedy is a kind of whistleblower on a national level.

But he’s not the only one and, with Kennedy’s rise to power, AbleChild is reminded of another whistleblower, Allen Jones, whose exposure of dirty dealing between the pharmaceutical industry and state mental health agencies needs to be remembered and recognized.

Afterall, it takes courage to stand up to corruption and Jones, not one to shy away from controversy or be strong-armed into walking away, stood up to the behemoth pharmaceutical industry and ultimately protected children in ways they will never fully understand.

Another School Shooting. Another Mental Health Failure.

Having covered school shootings for decades, it is encouraging that mental health information is being made public in record time. Just two days since the shooting in Madison Wisconsin and the fact that the shooter was receiving therapy has already hit the news cycle.

Fifteen-year-old Natalie (Samantha) Rupnow, the reported shooter at the Abundant Life Christian School, who opened fire on her fellow students and teachers, killing two and wounding six others, apparently was a pawn in her parent’s marital troubles. An unhappy kid to say the least.

According to a Washington Post report, the shooter’s parents married and divorced three times. The last divorce in 2021 provided a custody agreement that had the 15-year-old shuttling between each parent’s home every two or three days. And, given there was a custody case, it comes with the territory that the State’s Family Services Department would become involved. Another clue that the state became involved in Natalie’s welfare is that the parents were involved in mediation and according to the Post “Natalie had been enrolled in therapy, which was supposed to help guide decisions about which parent she would spend weekends with…”

Flawed Report Ignores Key Facts, Leaving America Vulnerable to Future Assassination Attempts

The Reality of the Bipartisan Task Force Investigation into Attempted Assassination of Donald Trump

The Task Force on the Attempted Assassination of Donald J. Trump Final Report. Sounds impressive. A Task Force. Like Storming a beachhead or cracking down on organized crime. Unfortunately, in the case of this Congressional committee, the American People did not get its money’s worth. In fact, after months of “investigating” the result of those efforts consists of what the People already knew…the Secret Service did an extremely lousy job of protecting the then former President.

Do the People know why the alleged shooter attacked the then former President? No. Do the People know what physical evidence was collected to determine who was the alleged shooter? You know like DNA, fingerprints, photographs? Nope. Did the Congressional Task Force interview the parents of the alleged shooter to determine what the family may have known about the shooting event, or did it bother to have a conversation with the alleged shooter’s employer? You know an employer who had a recent photo of the alleged shooter and not some insulting High School photo. No. Neither of those interviews happened.

Deadly Weapon: The Mental Health Industry’s Lethal Treatments

Teenage Boy With Mental Health Problems Taking Medication At Home

Spencer Pearson, a former high school football star, was handed a life sentence last week for his 2023 violent and vicious stabbing attack of then 17-year-old Madison Schemitz in Ponte Vedra, Fla. It’s reported that Pearson “trembled and bowed his head in court” as the judge passed sentence.

Yes, as one would expect when one’s life is on the line, Pearson was contrite. And it’s important to note that Pearson’s attorney tried, unsuccessfully, to use the attackers “varied mental illnesses” as a mitigating defense. Of course, anyone would argue that someone who committed such a brutal attack must be suffering from mental illness. But is it that easy? Or is it possible that something else is at play?

For example, lots of young teenage boys’ experience getting dumped by girlfriends and don’t stalk them and then violently, repeatedly stab the former girlfriend, her mother and a stranger who stepped in to try and stop the rampage. No. Something else is at play here and, based on other brutal attacks carried out by seemingly normal unassuming teenage boys, one cannot help but admit this attack has the odor of a life of mental health intervention.

Alarming Surge in Military Suicides: Pentagon Ignores Psychiatric Drugging

With so much news about the recent Presidential election taking up most of the news cycle, the Department of Defense (DoD) Annual Report on Suicide for 2023 was released and, unfortunately, summarily ignored. Our Service members deserve more, especially in light of the findings in the report.

Suicides among active-duty military personnel are at all-time highs and according to a USO report, “some branches of the Armed Forces are experiencing the highest rate of suicides since before World War II.”

These data become even more startling when one understands that the same USO research reveals that “military suicide rates are four times higher than deaths that occurred during military operations.” By 2021, the data revealed that since 9/11 30,177 active-duty personnel and veterans died by suicide compared to the 7,057 service members killed in combat in those same twenty years.

Is “Ghost Networks” Lawsuit Against Insurance Companies the Failure of Mental Health Parity?

It is of interest that a class action lawsuit has been filed in New York which alleges that insurance companies are deliberately harming patients because the directories of listed physicians and professionals are non-existent, a proverbial “ghost network.” The suit further alleges that “there is a mental health crisis in this country and in this state” and the provider directory, the “ghost network,” is “exacerbating patients’ mental health problems” because they can’t contact providers for services needed.

While there are many issues that AbleChild could address about this lawsuit, two problems come to mind. First, whether there is a “mental health crisis,” and who is responsible, is up for debate and, secondly, it seems to AbleChild that this lawsuit is simply an end-around to obtain increased pay for mental health providers, which is being addressed in many states’ Medicaid oversight boards and commissions.

First, the suit alleges that the insurance companies have “mislead” patients by “publishing grossly inaccurate directories of doctors and therapists.” The suit further alleges that these “grossly inaccurate directories” list doctors and qualified professionals who are not within the insurance network – “Ghost Networks.” These “Ghost Networks” “that are replete with errors and duplications, which make them inaccurate, incomplete, deceptive, and misleading” are more likely to be found in Mental Health provider directories.

Trans Kids Mental Health No Better Despite Dangerous Drug Treatment

Dr. Johanna Olson-Kennedy, one of the nation’s leading advocates for gender-affirming care to kids, refuses to release a ten-million-dollar taxpayer-funded study because the results don’t support continued trans-medical intervention. However, full disclosure is necessary for the trans community to make important life decisions.

The nine-year study, bought and paid for by hard-working Americans, essentially revealed that after receiving puberty blockers, the mental health of these young children did not improve. This is important information because these children most certainly were diagnosed with some mental illness prior to being seen for gender dysphoria (the belief that one’s body is the wrong sex), another psychiatric diagnosis.

Dr. Olson-Kennedy has refused to release the study because she believes it could be “weaponized” and used as proof that “we shouldn’t use blockers.” The puberty blocker “treatments” supposedly delays physical development, so the body feels more like the gender identified with.

15.5 Million Adult Americans Think They Have ADHD

Like most alleged psychiatric disorders, attention deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) is a fraud diagnosis. Put simply, and honestly, there is no abnormality in the brain that is ADHD.

The mental health and pharmaceutical industries can say it exists…that it’s a real brain disorder, but it just isn’t true. This doesn’t stop such august institutions like the Center for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) from reporting that fifteen and a half million American adults suffer from ADHD. Of course, this is the same federal agency that said the covid vaccine was effective, would stop people from getting covid and stop them from spreading covid. Oops!

Nevertheless, the recent report from the CDC’s National Center for Health Statistics (NCHS) claims that 15.5 million US adults are living with the condition and explain that “many are being let down by poor access to treatment.”
