Open a source beside each claim and use the connection panel to follow the evidence thread. ### Connections - Blood Evidence: https://lindsay.conspirograph.com/topic/blood-evidence (Window and exterior reconstruction relies partly on blood transfer evidence.) - Investigative Limits & Mistakes: https://lindsay.conspirograph.com/topic/investigative-limitations (The sill was unsampled initially and shingles were collected months later.) - Locations & Scene View: https://lindsay.conspirograph.com/topic/scene-locations (The physical scene is described without republishing the street address.) - Was the Scene Staged?: https://lindsay.conspirograph.com/topic/was-scene-staged (The staging theory cites, but does not resolve, the exit mechanics.) ### Evidence cards #### Card #01: About 6:09 p.m. · return and window - URL: https://lindsay.conspirograph.com/topic/window-exterior/card/10 - Markdown: https://lindsay.conspirograph.com/topic/window-exterior/card/10.md - Topic: Window & Exterior Evidence - Updated: 2026-08-12T03:37:55.137Z - Comments: 0 Summary: Patrick's account of the silent house.

Body: [SWORN TESTIMONY] Investigators returned on June 15, 2023, to collect shingle material; several stains screened presumptively positive, and limited material was preserved for DNA rather than consumed by confirmatory blood testing. [Trial Day 6](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DQoa0AtT_fc) [SWORN TESTIMONY] Hartnett acknowledged that months of weather exposure can degrade biological material.

Body: [SWORN TESTIMONY] Shingle stains B and D yielded single female profiles strongly supporting Lindsay while excluding the other family references; stain C was a low-level mixture unsuitable for comparison.

Body: [SWORN TESTIMONY] The blood-pattern witness said sill transfers were compatible with a bloody hand or object contacting the surface and could be produced while leaning or hanging, but she could not determine direction of travel. [Trial Day 6](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DQoa0AtT_fc) [UNKNOWN] The public evidence does not by itself distinguish a jump, controlled lowering or drop, accidental fall during an attempt, or another exact exit mechanism; a biomechanical reconstruction would be needed.

Body: [SWORN TESTIMONY] The analyst described sill staining as transfer consistent with a bloody hand or object contacting the surfaces but could not identify the object or direction of movement. [Trial Day 6](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DQoa0AtT_fc) [SWORN TESTIMONY] She agreed that a bloody person leaning or hanging through the window could create transfers and said continuous wall contact would tend to produce a more continuous smear.

Body: [SWORN TESTIMONY] Exterior shingle samples were not collected until June 15, 2023, nearly five months after the incident; the collector acknowledged weather-related degradation risk.

Body: [SPECULATION] The sill and blood distribution have been cited online as disproving Lindsay's exit and implying a staged fall. [Trial Day 6 evidence](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DQoa0AtT_fc) [SWORN TESTIMONY] Two exterior shingle profiles strongly supported Lindsay, and the sill transfers were compatible with bloody contact while leaning or hanging; the analyst could not determine movement direction. [Trial Day 6](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DQoa0AtT_fc) · [Trial Day 7](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5YuM1a0J08Y) [UNKNOWN] The exact exit mechanics remain unresolved and require biomechanics; that gap does not identify Patrick or a third party.

Body: [UNKNOWN] No public biomechanical reconstruction establishes whether the exit involved a jump, lowering, drop, accidental fall, or another movement sequence.

Body: [SWORN TESTIMONY] Medical witnesses described hypothermia around 82.1°F, low blood pressure, complex thoracic and spinal fractures, later cardiac arrest and transfusion, plus neck and wrist cuts described as superficial relative to the internal trauma. [Trial Day 5](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0ol0huRYsso) · [Trial Day 6](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DQoa0AtT_fc) [SWORN TESTIMONY] The wrist wounds nevertheless required repair with sutures and Steri-Strips.
