Could Lindsay Clancy Actually Walk Free One Day? Sep 06, 2026

Show notes

Massachusetts already ran this exact experiment once. Andrea Yates killed her five children, was found not guilty by reason of insanity, and has remained committed for more than twenty years without ever walking out. Defense trial attorney Bob Motta says that precedent is the real story behind the Lindsay Clancy case — not which of the five verdicts the jury eventually lands on.
Motta sat through the entire five-week trial and breaks down what each option actually carries: prison with no parole under some outcomes, indefinite psychiatric commitment under others. Lindsay Clancy has already been living that second reality at Tewksbury State Hospital since the day her three children — Cora, Dawson, and Callan — died, paralyzed from the waist down after her own suicide attempt on January 24, 2023, medicated daily, and evaluated once a year. The defense has never disputed the physical facts of that day; the only real fight left is over what was happening in her mind. Motta also breaks down the malpractice lawsuits Lindsay and her husband Patrick filed against her medical providers, and whether the criminal verdict changes anything about those.
If the current jury can't agree, defense attorney and former prosecutor Eric Faddis says a retrial isn't the only road left. Plymouth County DA Timothy Cruz could pursue one — Massachusetts moved fast on exactly that in the Karen Read case — but Lindsay Clancy could also waive her right to a jury and let a single judge weigh the psychiatric evidence instead of twelve people who couldn't agree on it. Faddis also revisits Kevin Reddington's failed bifurcation motion, which could split any retrial into a guilt phase and a responsibility phase entirely.
Two attorneys, two outcomes, and a case where the ending may already be written.

What Patrick Clancy's Surveillance Footage Shows Sep 05, 2026

Show notes

Lindsay Clancy has never denied killing her three children. The entire defense rests on one question: was she psychotic when it happened? But a separate story has taken over parts of the internet — thousands of people insisting her ex-husband Patrick is somehow responsible instead, despite her admission and surveillance footage that places him outside the home. Criminal defense trial attorney Bob Motta, who was in the courtroom and watched Patrick testify, tells Tony Brueski whether any actual evidence supports that theory, and what legal options Patrick has against people spreading it after his divorce from Lindsay and remarriage. From there, the case moved to twelve jurors — nine women, three men — who began deliberating at Plymouth Superior Court on August 27 and went more than three and a half hours without reaching a verdict. They're choosing between five outcomes: first-degree murder, second-degree murder, manslaughter, not criminally responsible, or not guilty. A not-guilty-by-reason-of-insanity verdict doesn't mean Lindsay walks free — it means commitment to a state psychiatric facility with no maximum term. Andrea Yates has been under that kind of commitment for twenty years. Retired FBI Special Agent Jennifer Coffindaffer breaks down what each option would mean, and how a jury of mostly mothers weighs a case like this one. Both Lindsay and Patrick have already filed separate lawsuits against her medical providers, setting up a civil case that could reach a very different conclusion than whatever this jury decides.

What Kohberger's New Lawyer Claims He Found Sep 05, 2026

Show notes

Jason Goldman just joined Bryan Kohberger's court-appointed defense team, and his first move was telling PEOPLE magazine that everyone should stop assuming they understand the Idaho murders case. He's being paid with public money, in a case that has already cost Idaho taxpayers more than eight million dollars. Here's what's not in dispute: Kohberger confessed on July 2, 2025, in Ada County — four guilty pleas, four lives taken, Madison Mogen, Kaylee Goncalves, Xana Kernodle, and Ethan Chapin. The judge confirmed it was voluntary. Kohberger gave up his right to appeal. The evidence behind that confession runs deep: a Reddit survey asking real offenders how they picked their targets, peers at Washington State University who flagged him for stalking and intimidating women, cell tower records placing him near the victims' address on roughly two dozen late-night occasions before the attack, and DNA recovered from a knife sheath left beside one of the bodies. Twelve months after sentencing, Kohberger filed a jailhouse petition claiming he'd been tricked into confessing — with no supporting evidence attached. The Goncalves family called him a narcissist. Now a judge has scheduled an evidentiary hearing for June 2027, and Kohberger's own hired forensics expert, Sy Ray, says investigators actually missed MORE incriminating cellphone data — and that the death penalty should be back on the table. So what exactly does Goldman think he's found that changes any of that? A new attorney who hadn't even read the file yet has ten months to answer that question in open court.

What JP Miller Did to Mica's Prescription Sep 05, 2026

Show notes

Every part of Mica Miller's life ran through one man, and the Netflix documentary “Death of the Pastor's Wife” finally shows how far back that control went. Pastor John-Paul Miller met her when she was a child — fourteen years older, already married, already her pastor. In a police report filed in February 2024, Mica told officers he had been pursuing her since she was ten. His attorney denies it. The documented timeline: JP officiated her first marriage at eighteen, hired her as his personal assistant, began an affair with her while she was babysitting his own kids, and married her himself in 2017. She became his wife, his employee, and his church's worship leader. Friends now allege he demanded compliance from her multiple times a day and wouldn't let her sleep when she refused. They allege he pressured her into taking testosterone that damaged the voice that once led worship at Solid Rock Church. Family attorney Regina Ward alleges JP went further — putting Mica on his own lithium prescription without her knowledge. Siblings allege he then had her involuntarily hospitalized against her will, and while she was locked inside, took her car, phone, and laptop. Federal prosecutors allege an intimate photo from that laptop later appeared online without her consent. JP has pleaded not guilty to federal cyberstalking charges. His trial is scheduled for October 2026. He has since remarried, to a church member whose own husband drowned in a neighborhood pool in 2021. Mica was thirty years old when she died.

Lindsay Clancy Trial: Judge Declares Mistrial After Jury Deadlocks for Seven Days Sep 05, 2026

Show notes

Seven days. Thirty-nine hours. Twelve people who could not agree on what happened inside a house on Summer Street — and in the end, that's the verdict. There isn't one.

Lindsay Clancy, 34, of Duxbury, Massachusetts, stood trial for the January 24, 2023 killings of her three children — 5-year-old Cora, 3-year-old Dawson, and 7-month-old Callan — inside the family's home on Summer Street. Prosecutors allege she strangled the children with exercise resistance bands. She's charged with three counts of murder and three counts of strangulation and pleaded not guilty. Her defense, led by attorney Kevin Reddington, argued severe postpartum psychosis and psychiatric overmedication left her not criminally responsible. After the killings, Clancy allegedly attempted suicide by jumping from a second-story window and has been paralyzed from the waist down ever since. Her husband, Patrick Clancy, was out running errands when it happened; he's since relocated to Manhattan and spoken publicly about her mental health.

After five weeks of testimony covering more than 80 witnesses and 300 exhibits, the jury — nine women, three men — told Judge William F. Sullivan three separate times they couldn't reach a unanimous verdict. Reddington made a last-minute push to swap out a holdout juror, then filed an emergency appeal to the state's highest court when Sullivan refused. The court said no. Sullivan declared a mistrial.

Plymouth County District Attorney Tim Cruz now has to decide whether to run this whole thing back with a new jury — a decision that isn't happening today. What is happening: a status and motion hearing on September 29. So no, this isn't over. It just got longer.

Lindsay Clancy's Jury, The Arrest, And What Happens Now Sep 05, 2026

Show notes

Three developments in the Lindsay Clancy murder trial at Plymouth Superior Court are converging into a single question: what happens next?

The jury has been deliberating for days and has sent notes indicating they cannot agree. Judge Sullivan read the Tuey-Rodriguez instruction and sent them back. The impasse continued. The deadlock centers on a psychiatric dispute that twelve lay jurors appear unable to resolve.

Outside the courthouse, a woman was arrested for filming the jurors. Police found deleted videos on her phone. The judge questioned each juror individually. The arrest created documented interference during active deliberation—evidence that could affect any appeal or future proceeding.

If the jury hangs, the defense enters the next phase with options that did not exist before. A bench trial would put the case before a judge instead of a new jury. A renewed bifurcation motion could split a retrial into two phases, focusing only on criminal responsibility. Massachusetts precedent suggests the DA will retry—Karen Read was retried after a hung jury, as was Emanuel Lopes.

But the depth of the deadlock, the outside interference, and the defense's strategic options make this a more complicated decision than a simple retry.

Defense attorney and former prosecutor Eric Faddis covers all three developments and what they mean for Lindsay Clancy, for the DA's office, and for the mothers watching who needed this trial to deliver an answer.

Lori Vallow's Appeal Claims THIS About Her Own Lawyer Sep 04, 2026

Show notes

Lori Vallow Daybell is serving seven life sentences for murdering her two children and conspiring to kill three other people. She believed her children were zombies whose souls had been taken over by dark spirits. She told an Arizona judge Jesus would free her from prison. Her appellate attorney Craig Durham has filed five constitutional claims with the Idaho Supreme Court, and the centerpiece is what happened to her defense attorney Mark Means.

The state has documented evidence that Chad Daybell arranged and paid for Means to represent Lori. In a recorded jail call, Chad called Means "my attorney." Co-conspirators in a capital case cannot share a lawyer. The judge removed Means for the conflict, and Durham argues that removal violated Lori's constitutional right to the attorney of her choice — an error that could erase the conviction without any proof of harm.

The state used Lori's incompetency to explain the trial delays, to justify holding hearings without her, and to block her from choosing her own lawyer. Durham says you can't use someone's illness against them in three different directions. Oral arguments are November 2 in Boise. Even a complete reversal leaves two Arizona life sentences untouched. She's not walking out of prison.

Lindsay Clancy's Defense Has An Option That Changes Everything Sep 04, 2026

Show notes

If a mistrial is declared in the Lindsay Clancy murder trial, the next chapter is not automatic. The defense has options, the DA has a decision to make, and the timeline could stretch months while Clancy remains at Tewksbury State Hospital.

The option that has received the least public attention: Massachusetts allows a defendant to waive the right to a jury trial. Kevin Reddington could ask for a bench trial—putting the entire case before a single judge instead of twelve jurors. In a case where the impasse appears to be twelve people's inability to resolve a dispute between psychiatric experts, a bench trial eliminates the problem.

Reddington also has the bifurcation motion he filed pretrial and lost. A hung jury gives him stronger ground to renew it. If granted, a retrial would separate the guilt question Clancy has conceded from the criminal responsibility question the jury could not resolve.

The DA's decision is not simple either. Plymouth County DA Timothy Cruz charged first-degree murder. That charge mandates a jury trial unless the defendant waives it. Cruz has shown no willingness to reduce the charges. A retrial means the same eighty-plus witnesses return to the stand.

Massachusetts history points in one direction. After Karen Read's first trial hung, the DA retried within months. After Emanuel Lopes hung, the state tried again and convicted.

Defense attorney and former prosecutor Eric Faddis walks through the bench trial, the bifurcation motion, the retrial timeline, and how the depth of the jury's impasse factors into what happens next.

How the Adelsons Responded When a Judge Told Them No Sep 04, 2026

Show notes

A judge told Wendi Adelson she couldn't move her kids to South Florida. Her mother Donna allegedly offered Dan Markel a million dollars to let them go. He said no. Prosecutors say the family's next move was a contract killing — two men hired from Miami to shoot the FSU law professor in his own garage on July 18, 2014.Dan Markel was 41. He'd dropped his sons at preschool that morning and come home from the gym. What investigators found afterward was a financial trail running through the Adelson family dental practice — monthly payments to a woman who never worked there, 44 checks signed by Donna, cash in brown paper bags with bills stapled in thousand-dollar increments. The grandmother allegedly washed the money before it went out.A rented Prius with a toll transponder led investigators from Tallahassee to Miami. A woman dating Charlie Adelson turned out to be the mother of the gunman's children. And an FBI sting in 2016 produced a forty-one-minute recording of Charlie discussing the entire arrangement at a Miami Beach restaurant. Donna's reaction to the FBI's approach — three calls to Charlie, zero to the police — told prosecutors everything they needed to know.

What Was On The Phone Outside Lindsay Clancy's Courthouse Sep 04, 2026

Show notes

A woman was arrested outside Plymouth Superior Court during the Lindsay Clancy murder trial. She told reporters she came to catch a glimpse of Lindsay getting into the transport van. Police found deleted videos on her phone—not of Lindsay, but of the jurors.

The judge had to individually question each member of the jury before allowing them to resume deliberations. This happened during an already fragile moment—the jury had been deadlocked for days and had sent notes to the judge saying they could not reach agreement.

The arrest creates complications that extend well beyond this trial. If a guilty verdict is returned, the defense gains a concrete argument for appeal—that the jury was exposed to outside interference during a period when they were already struggling. If the jury hangs, the incident becomes part of the case file that follows Lindsay Clancy into any retrial.

Courts across the country are grappling with how to secure jurors in an era when anyone with a smartphone can record, post, and potentially identify the people deciding a defendant's fate. Most courthouses operate with security protocols designed for an era before social media existed.

Defense attorney and former prosecutor Eric Faddis breaks down how the arrest affects the current deliberations, what it means for any verdict that comes out of this trial, and what courts need to change to protect jurors from a public that has forgotten the difference between a trial and a television show.
