Is Lindsay Clancy A Monster Or A Patient?

from True Crime Today | Daily True Crime News & Interviews · host Real Story Media

The Lindsay Clancy case forces the audience to sit with a question most people would rather not ask — can a mother who killed her three children also be someone the medical system destroyed? Psychotherapist Shavaun Scott talks through the answer with Tony Brueski.The public split is not about evidence. Everyone agrees on what happened. The split is about whether the woman who did it was operating in reality or had been pushed out of it by misdiagnosis, overmedication, and provider fragmentation. Shavaun explains why that question has no clean answer — and why the discomfort the audience feels when they try to answer it is the point.She walks through the Andrea Yates comparison — why some women accused of filicide receive public sympathy and others receive none, and what decides the difference. She addresses the judge's decision to block dozens of women from testifying about their own psychosis and what that means for jurors who have never been exposed to the condition they are evaluating.Patrick Clancy said he was not married to a monster — he was married to someone who got sick. Even if the insanity defense succeeds, Lindsay never walks free. Shavaun closes on what justice looks like here — for the children, for Patrick, and for the next woman the system is already failing.Tony Brueski and psychotherapist Shavaun Scott, author of Night Bird, discuss the Lindsay Clancy case.Join Our SubStack For AD-FREE ADVANCE EPISODES & EXTRAS!: https://hiddenkillers.substack.com/Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?
