Mother accused of killing 2-year-old after fixation on Lindsay Clancy trial

A Will County mother, Corie Walsh, allegedly murdered her 2-year-old son just hours after discussing the Lindsay Clancy murder trial with friends, telling police she did it because the child was the “devil” and the “anti-Christ.” The boy died from asphyxia due to ligature compression; Walsh was found with self-inflicted wounds and charged with three counts of first-degree murder. Investigators noted she had become very invested in Clancy’s case, a possible copycat motive linked to postpartum psychosis claims.

Stomach-bug text ties Mechanicville murder-suicide to NY mom and grandma who killed four children

A newly released text exchange shows New York mom Sarah Myers, 44, and her mother Amy Steadman conspiring to murder four children in Mechanicville before killing themselves. Myers told her ex-husband that the kids—Harper (13), Hudson (11), Gavin and Gracelynn (10) — had a “little stomach bug” the day they died, as investigators say the pair obtained sleep aids and medications and left letters alleging abuse. The father, Brady Harmon, who hadn’t seen the children since 2019 and planned a summer visit, learns of the tragedy as the badly decomposed bodies were found in the apartment on June 23.

Susan Smith Denied Parole 30 Years After Infamous Child Murders

The South Carolina parole board denied parole for Susan Smith, who was convicted of murdering her two young sons in 1994 by rolling her car into a lake with them inside. Smith, who has served 30 years of her life sentence, appeared virtually for the hearing, where the board considered her conduct in prison, including rule violations. David Smith, the father of the victims, emotionally opposed her release, arguing that her time served is insufficient for the crime. The board's decision required a two-thirds majority to grant parole, which was not achieved.
