In January 2023, Lindsay Clancy was accused of killing her three young children in the family’s Duxbury, Massachusetts home.
More than three years later, her case is now being tried in court. Throughout those three years, Lindsay’s parents, Mike and Paula Musgrove, have continued to show up for their daughter.
And that is who this fundraiser is for, Mike and Paula, who have spent years traveling back and forth, staying in hotels, attending court proceedings and ultimately relocating from Connecticut to Massachusetts so they could remain close to Lindsay.
Their lives have largely been put on hold while they have continued doing what parents do: showing up for their child during the unimaginable.
That has come at an enormous financial cost. This fundraiser is not asking anyone to agree on Lindsay, her case, or what the outcome of her trial should be. People will have different feelings about all of those things.
It is simply an opportunity to help two parents who have spent more than three years carrying a financial burden on top of an emotional one most of us cannot begin to imagine.
Mike and Paula are the named beneficiaries of this GoFundMe and receive the funds directly. I do not have access to the money. The fundraiser was established with their knowledge and consent, and Lindsay’s attorney, Kevin Reddington, is aware of it.
The money belongs to Mike and Paula. The purpose of this fundraiser is to give them back some of the financial stability they have lost over the last three years and allow them to decide what they need as they eventually begin figuring out what life looks like after this trial.
At some point, the court proceedings will end. Mike and Paula will still have a life to return to. There will still be bills, a home, lost savings, and years of putting their own lives on hold while they stood beside their daughter.
More than anything, this fundraiser came from a very simple thought: What if thousands of strangers could help carry just one piece of this for them?
And that is exactly what has happened. This fund has grown because thousands of people independently decided that Mike and Paula deserve some support after everything they have carried.
If you feel the same, please consider donating or sharing the Musgrove Family Fund. Every donation—whether it is $5 or $500—is one more person saying: You don’t have to carry all of this alone.
