Mr. Camey informed me that Pat Clancy currently works for Microsoft while he works in thefinancial sector. Mr. Camey stated that when he spoke to Pat earlier in the day, he seemed to be
his normal self,
38. Mr, Camey informed me that on Sunday, January 22, 2023, Pat Clanoy along with Lindsay
and two of the older children had visited their house for dinner. While there, Lindsay seemed
fairly normal, mostly quiet while on her phone and keeping to herself. He was actually surprised
she was there due to Pat's statements about her health and he didn’t know she was coming that
night, He stated that overall everything seemed perfectly normal and this was the first time they
had seen Lindsay in a couple months, When asked why they had not seen Lindsay for such an
extended period of time, Mr. Camey stated that Lindsay was having medical issues. Trooper Malo
then asked him to expand on these medical issues and he stated that Pat told him that Lindsay was
about to go back to work and was having anxiety. She was prescribed medications, which were in
Pat's opinion not working. Pat went on to tell him that Lindsay was prescribed more medication
and thought she was now addicted to Benzodiazepines. Pat also told Mr. Camey that Lindsay was
having issues with her medication and she wes mostly anxious and not depressed. Pat felt as if
Lindsay was not overly anxious and the anxiety level was normal and not severe. According to
Pat, Lindsay had joked about talking to a therapist about her anxiety.
39. Mr. Camey stated that Pat mentioned Lindsay was suffering from withdrawals from the
Benzodiazepines approximately a month and a half ago and that is when he began to open up to
both Mr. Camey and his wife Sarah Camey (DOB: ‘), Pat told Mr, Camey that he was
really concerned about the withdrawals and said that Lindsay had the worst side effects possible.
Lindsay was also prescribed more medication for sleeping. When asked if Lindsay had any close
friends in the area, Mr. Camey stated that besides local mother groups, she did not have many
friends. Due to this, Mr. Camey informed me that he along with his wife were going to start to
engage one on one with Lindsay in the near future, Pat also stated to Mr. Carney that Lindsay’s
family had been in Duxbury this past weekend to support her.
40. Mr. Camey stated that he along with his wife went to college with Pat and they send their
children to the same daycare. It was during one of these daycare drop-off that Pat looked as
though he was having @ rough morning and he opened up to Mrs. Camey. Pat had communicationvia text messages with Mrs. Carney on January 5th, 2023 in regards to Lindsay and the treatment
and medicstion she was receiving. Mr. Carey stated that Pat felt as if he needed to get more
involved with her treatment due to the fact that Lindsay was going by herself to a psychiatrist for
a while and he felt that she was prescribed too many medications. Mr. Carey informed me that
Pat never voiced concem of Lindsay hurting herself. ‘The interview was termineted at this time,
41. On Wednesday, January 25, 2023, at approximately 0300 hows, Trooper McKelligan
sought and received a search warrant for 47 Summer Street in Duxbury. The warrant was issued
byPlymouth District Court Clerk Magistrate Adam Baler. At approximately 0400 hours, the search
‘warrant was executed at 47 Summer Street in Duxbury. Located on the kitchen counter near the
sink was one (1) tablet with a blue case with a visible model number of K72LL4. Investigators
are aware that Ms, Clancy and Mr. Clancy both had access to this tablet prior to the three murders.
Investigators are also aware that Ms, Clancy previously used her cellular telephone to conducted
internet searches, utilize notes, and social media applications. Located, on the nightstand, directly
below the open window was a large blood covered kitchen knife. This knife was secured by
Massachusetts State Police Crime Scene Services. Located in the basement was a brown notebook.
Located in a kitchen cabinet was as separate multi-colored notebook. In both notebooks, Ms.
Clancy listed medications she was taking and at times suicidal expressions and thoughts. In these
notebooks, Ms. Clancy also expresses that she confides in friends, one named “Sue” but does not
list last names in the notebooks. Investigators are also aware that Ms. Clancy used her cellular
telephone and her journal to document her mental state and her feelings about her children, in
addition to keeping track of her medications, and researching ways to kill, which means that is
reasonable to conclude that Ms, Clancy would have used all formats and tools available to her,
including a tablet,

54. Based on my training and experience and that of other officers assigned to this
investigation, I know that:
1, Tablets are widely used today and as such they contain much information about its
user. With many tablets having the ability to send and receive calls, short message service
(SMS, or text) messages, and multimedia messaging services (MMS), in addition to
calendars, contact lists, and call history, cellular telephones contain hundreds of digital files
that can be used to corroborate or discount the uset’s statements, and/or independently
assist investigators including: establishing a timeline of the user before, during or following
criminal activity, possibly identifying the user’s motives and/or frame of mind for
committing a crime,
2. Tablets today may be considered hand-held computers, as many models can be used
to text, send and receive electronic mail (¢-mail), and also to view Intemet web pages
and/or aovess social media accounts. Social media use web based and mobile technologies
on smartphones and tablet computers to create highly interactive platforms through whichindividuals, communities and organizations can share, co-create, discuss, and modify user-
generated content or pre-made content posted online, Social media allows users to
instantly share images, videos, and/or text with one or many other individuals.
3. Information typically contained on tablets that may be useful to investigators
includes:
a, Subscriber tablet umber,
>. The tablet’s electronic serial number (ESN),
international mobile equipment number, mobile equipment
‘identifier, or other similar identification number.
¢. Tablet configuration information and settings.
4. Call history (including incoming, outgoing, and missed.
calls),
fe. Contact fist, address book, calendar, date book, and memo
pad,
£ SMS and MMS history (including incoming, outgoing,
deleted, and draft messages).
g Voicemail (including saved, opened and unopened
voicemails).
hh. _ E-mail messages (including saved, opened, unopened, draft, sent, and
deleted e-mail messages).
i. - Instant messages (IMs) to include messages, chat logs,
and “buddy” lists.
j. Internet browser history (including bookmarks and
favorites).
k. ~ Saved and deleted digital images and videos.
1. Third party applications used and information contained
within the databases of those applications. (including social
media applications)4, have knowledge and experience that tablets may be used by perpetrators of
violent crimes, for purposes other than Javefil and normal communication, These tablets
may be used to arrange and facilitate escape, to coordinate alibis, conceal evidence of a
crime, photograph or record illegal activities or contraband, store contact information of
accomplices, as well as document oral or text communications of conspiracy between
knowing participants
55. Based on the information hereinafter related as a result of my own investigative efforts and
those of the other investigators involved in this investigation, I believe that probable cause exists
that Cora Clancy (Date of Birth: 12/24/2017), Dawson Claney (Date of Birth: 09/30/2019), and
Callan Clancy (Date of Birth: 05/26/2022) were the victims of the crimes of Murder, a violation

“Massachusetts General Law Chapter 265 Chapter 15D (3 Counts), and Assault and Battery with a
Dangerous Weapon, a violation of Massachusetts General Law Chapter 265, Section 15A (3
Counts), and evidence of the crime will be located within (1) tablet with a blue case with a visible

the sink at the residence of 47 Summer Street Duxbury, Massachusetts, as a result of a search
‘warrant, which was executed on Wednesday January 25, 2023.
56. Based on the foregoing reliable information and upon my personal knowledge and belief,
as well as the opinion of other investigators assisting in this investigation, I believe that there is
probable cause to believe that evidence and information related to the crime of Murder, a violation
of Massachusetts General Law Chapter 265 (2 Counts), Section 1, Strangulation, a violation of
‘Massachusetts General Law Chapter 265 Chapter 15D (3 Counts), and Assault and Battery with a

‘case was located on the kitchen counter near the sink at the residence of 47 Summer Street
Duxbury, Massachusetts, as a result of a search warrant, which was executed on

- Lindsay Clancy uses notebooks which were discovered during the search warrant to log
her expressions and thoughts and could possibly use a tablet for amore comprehensive log.
~ Investigators could use this tablet believed to belong to Lindsay Clancy’s in order to
obtain her contact list and messages to identify Sue and other friends she confides in.
