Lindsay Clancy's Trial Just Lost Dozens of Witnesses

from Hidden Killers With Tony Brueski | True Crime News & Commentary · host True Crime Today

Everyone in that Plymouth courtroom agrees Lindsay Clancy swallowed pills the night her children died. So the state's toxicologist testified that the antipsychotic in her blood measured roughly ten times below toxic levels — that people trying to die take handfuls, and this wasn't that. The testimony landed on a question neither side is actually fighting about. This was never an overdose case. It's a case about a mind. And that same night, Clancy went out a second-story window. She will never walk again.On this episode of Hidden Killers, Tony Brueski asks retired FBI Special Agent Jennifer Coffindaffer whether the prosecution is proving the wrong thing. The state built a meticulous forensic answer to a question the defense never asked. The real question sits untouched: was Lindsay Clancy's mind her own on January 24?Week two forced that question into the open. The defense stipulated to the forensic evidence: blood, DNA, the physical record. Clancy's lawyers have never disputed that she caused the deaths of Cora, Dawson, and Callan. Criminal responsibility is the entire trial. Coffindaffer and Tony work through what's left of the state's case once the forensics stop mattering. There's a psychiatric evaluation from six days after the deaths describing a calm and organized patient. There are diary pages about brain fog and terror that prosecutors say show no break from reality. The defense answer to both is the same: postpartum psychosis moves hour to hour, and a snapshot is not that night.Coffindaffer has spent decades reading how juries absorb medical testimony, and she's blunt about which of these moves persuade and which insult a jury's intelligence.Lindsay Clancy is presumed innocent of murder. Cora, Dawson, and Callan deserve a trial about what actually happened, not a sideshow about what didn't.LINKSJoin Our SubStack For AD-FREE ADVANCE EPISODES & EXTRAS!: https://hiddenkillers.substack.com/ Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?
