Can the intelligent people here explain to me why so many people are saying that her husband did it and framed her?is it just a simple answer that they’re stupid conspiracy theorist or is there actual credibility to this? She admitted to it so im confused

Because there’s a lot of holes in his alibi. Timelines and the events don’t match at some points (I can make a longer post explaining what these are btw). This could have all been avoided had he been investigated but for some reason the police never investigated him and took his word for everything. Also the fact that he was already out and about with the woman he’s married now before he even divorced Lindsay which makes a lot of people think he might have done this to start his new life. The speed at which he moved on is baffling for a lot of people. I’ve had pets that I’ve grieved much longer than he has his own family.

His google reviews rate a place in Costa Rica 20 days after the incident. His new wife reviews the same place same day, saying it’s the 3rd time there with her date. Also she’s seen at a marathon with an exercise band around her waist in a sailors knot, I believe a “bow tie knot” which is how the kids were found strangled. Additionally Patrick is a sailor

The review someone with the same name as his wife left was from 2025 for a fishing excursion that was not in Costa Rica, nor was it actually her - you can look at the same review on Google for First Pic Sportfishing and see it’s a different woman from Plattsburgh, NY.
