Something that surprised me about this case was the statement that Patrick made just days after the killings. Now, as we
00:00:07
said, Patrick was the one he discovered his children in the basement. Um, he was
00:00:12
with 8-month-old Ken when he was removed from life support and he now of course is grieving the loss of his three
00:00:18
children and that life that he once knew. But just 4 days after the killings, he posted a statement on a
00:00:25
GoFundMe page that had been set up for medical bills and funeral expenses. And he actually asked people to please
00:00:32
forgive his wife. I mean, forgive his wife for the unthinkable. >> Yeah, it was a stunning and really
00:00:38
interesting aspect of the case at the time. So, Patrick's GoFundMe statement, it was mainly about his children. He
00:00:44
said the shock and the pain was relentless in that with the little sleep he got, he dreamed about them on repeat.
00:00:50
But he also wrote about Lindsay and he said she was a loving wife, a loving mother and nurse. He said she loved
00:00:57
being a nurse, but he said quote, "Nothing matched her intense love for our kids and dedication to being a
00:01:04
mother. It was all she ever wanted." And he also asked others to join him in forgiving his wife.
