McLean, who’s famous for the song “American Pie,” and Patrisha McLean divorced after a domestic incident in their home in 2016. McLean pleaded guilty to charges, which were dismissed after he met the terms of a plea agreement.

Patrisha McLean is using her exhibit to draw attention to domestic violence by sharing stories from victims. The Free Press of Rockland wrote about the exhibition on Feb. 7.

The Press Herald reports McLean’s attorney threatened to sue the paper and accused Patrisha McLean of “vicious misstatements.” The paper removed the story online so lawyers could review it.
