    Why Lindsay Clancy’s Prosecution May Have Already Lost Aug 24, 2026
    Show notes

    The prosecution rested after fourteen days and more than seventy witnesses. Before trial, the defense conceded that Lindsay Clancy killed her children. The prosecution’s job was to prove she was sane and acting with premeditation when she did it. After three weeks, what they may have proven instead is how badly her medical providers failed her.
    Patrick Clancy, their first witness, testified he was never told not to leave Lindsay alone with the children and that he didn’t know what psychosis was until after January 24th. The prosecution’s own psychiatrist admitted under cross that she never met Lindsay in person across fourteen appointments.
    The defense psychologist has met with Lindsay more than sixty times and diagnosed her with bipolar disorder with postpartum psychosis. He testified she had no appreciation for the wrongfulness of her act. Lindsay’s mother and mother-in-law both took the stand and described a woman begging for help that never came in the form she needed.
    Eric Faddis, defense attorney and former prosecutor, evaluates whether the prosecution accomplished what it needed to and where this jury is likely to land.

    Lindsay Clancy Trial: Prosecution's Psychologist Just Undercut the Insanity Defense Aug 24, 2026
    Show notes


    Dr. Kirk Heilbrun, a forensic psychologist called by the prosecution, took the stand today in the murder trial of Lindsay Clancy, the Duxbury, Massachusetts mother accused of strangling her three children — 5-year-old Cora, 3-year-old Dawson, and 7-month-old Callan — with exercise bands inside the family's Summer Street home on January 24, 2023. Clancy faces three counts of murder and three counts of strangulation. She's pleaded not guilty, and her attorney Kevin Reddington is building an insanity defense around severe postpartum psychosis and psychiatric overmedication.

    Heilbrun evaluated Clancy three years after the killings, and testified she tended to underreport or minimize her own symptoms — which, coming from a rebuttal witness, is not a throwaway line. He didn't dispute that her suicide attempt was serious; he said the opposite, noting she remains on one-to-one suicide precautions at Tewksbury and is still considered at risk. What he disputed is the cause of the children's deaths. Heilbrun testified he doesn't believe psychosis was behind it — he believes Clancy killed her children to spare them from suffering after she died. He said the symptoms only showed up during the offense itself, with no related delusions, and that the voice telling her "this is your last chance" reads to him as intrusive thoughts, not a command hallucination. He also pointed to her first words to her husband after the attempt: "I tried to kill myself" — not that she'd followed a voice's instructions.

    Prosecutors are expected to lean on that distinction hard. The trial continues in Plymouth Superior Court, where Judge William F. Sullivan is presiding over what's shaping up to be a battle of competing psychiatric narratives, not competing facts.

    Lindsay Clancy Trial: Prosecution's Own Expert Testifies to Months of Warning Signs Aug 24, 2026
    Show notes


    Dr. Kirk Heilbrun, a forensic psychologist called as a prosecution rebuttal witness, spent hours on the stand laying out a timeline that doesn't do the prosecution any favors in the murder trial of Lindsay Clancy — the Duxbury, Massachusetts mother accused of strangling her three children, 5-year-old Cora, 3-year-old Dawson, and 7-month-old Callan, with exercise resistance bands inside the family's Summer Street home on January 24, 2023. Clancy faces three counts of murder and three counts of strangulation, has pleaded not guilty, and is mounting an insanity defense centered on severe postpartum psychosis and psychiatric overmedication.

    Heilbrun opened by explaining retention bias — the tendency to lean toward whichever side hired you for the evaluation — before detailing his own work: roughly 180 hours reviewing police records, medical records, court documents, and surveillance footage, plus 10.5 hours testing and interviewing Clancy and 1.5 hours in collateral interviews. He testified that before September 2022, Clancy's medical history was limited, mostly some anxiety. After October 2022, that anxiety and depression worsened, and by December 2022 she was experiencing intrusive, unwanted thoughts about harming herself and, occasionally, the children — thoughts he was careful to distinguish from auditory hallucinations.

    On the diagnostic question, Heilbrun said he found no record of mania or hypomania that would point to bipolar disorder, despite Tewksbury Hospital's chart carrying that diagnosis for three and a half years. His own diagnosis: bipolar II. He also walked the jury through the legal standard for criminal responsibility — mental disease or defect, capacity to know the conduct was wrong, and ability to conform behavior to the law. After the killings, Clancy allegedly attempted suicide by jumping from a second-story window, leaving her paralyzed from the waist down. The trial continues in Plymouth Superior Court.

    Why Lindsay Clancy's Three Words Could Decide Her Verdict Aug 24, 2026
    Show notes

    Lindsay Clancy's murder trial now turns on a sentence she said in her basement on January 24, 2023. The Plymouth County DA's psychiatric expert, Dr. Avram Mack, testified she told him she said "go to God" as she strangled each child, and he told the jury that proves she understood her actions were wrong.

    Hours earlier, defense psychiatrist Dr. Phillip Resnick told the same jury she was frankly psychotic that day, heard a command, felt her body controlled by an outside force like a puppet, and believed sending her children to heaven was the right thing to do. He examined her four months after the deaths. Mack first met her more than three years later.

    Mack conceded a severe major depressive episode but found no psychosis and no mania in the months before the killings. He testified that psychosis on its own doesn't prevent someone from knowing right from wrong. Tony Brueski argues that line does as much damage to the prosecution as to the defense, because the state spent eighteen days proving Clancy wasn't psychotic and the jury will be instructed that capacity, not diagnosis, is the question.

    Reddington's cross-examination challenged Mack's background, his claim that Clancy resisted medication, and whether postpartum psychosis belongs in the DSM. Resnick faced his own cross, acknowledging Clancy never told providers about the impulse to harm her children. Clancy has pleaded not guilty to three counts of first-degree murder. Prosecutors allege she planned the killings. The Commonwealth carries the burden of proving she was criminally responsible. Two more prosecution experts remain before closings.

    Lindsay Clancy Trial: The DSM Technicality That Could Decide This Case Aug 24, 2026
    Show notes


    Redirect testimony from Dr. Avram Mack turned into a battle over diagnostic fine print Monday in the Lindsay Clancy murder trial. Clancy, 34, of Duxbury, Massachusetts, is accused of strangling her three children — 5-year-old Cora, 3-year-old Dawson, and 7-month-old Callan — with exercise resistance bands inside the family's Summer Street home on January 24, 2023. She faces three counts of murder and three counts of strangulation, has pleaded not guilty, and her defense is built on a claim of severe postpartum psychosis and psychiatric overmedication led by attorney Kevin Reddington.

    After Reddington spent his cross picking at Mack's credentials and motives, prosecutors used redirect to reframe the whole diagnostic argument. They had Mack explain that while postpartum psychosis isn't its own DSM diagnosis, "postpartum onset" is a recognized specifier that can attach to conditions like bipolar disorder and depression — meaning the clinical reality the defense is describing has a home in the manual, just not under the name they're using. From there, testimony settled into the unglamorous stuff that actually decides whether jurors trust an expert: precise definitions of what counts as "postpartum," another pass through Mack's qualifications, and other procedural detail work. Reddington kept pushing to keep the credibility damage on the record; the prosecution kept working to shore it up.

    No new revelations, but plenty riding on it — this is the tug-of-war over whether the jury walks away trusting Mack's opinion or writing it off entirely. After the killings, Clancy allegedly attempted suicide by jumping from a second-story window and is now paralyzed from the waist down. Her husband, Patrick Clancy, was running errands at the time and has since relocated to Manhattan. The trial continues in Plymouth Superior Court.

    Lindsay Clancy Trial: Diagnosis Chaos and a $300K Question for the Prosecution's Expert Aug 24, 2026
    Show notes


    Monday's session in the Lindsay Clancy trial belonged to the defense, as attorney Kevin Reddington took apart prosecution rebuttal witness Dr. Avram Mack piece by piece. Clancy, the 34-year-old Duxbury, Massachusetts mother accused of strangling her three children — 5-year-old Cora, 3-year-old Dawson, and 7-month-old Callan — with exercise resistance bands inside the family's Summer Street home on January 24, 2023, faces three counts of murder and three counts of strangulation. She's pleaded not guilty, and her defense rests on an insanity argument built around severe postpartum psychosis and psychiatric overmedication.

    Reddington's cross covered a lot of ground fast. He brought up past cases where Mack was found not credentialed enough to testify, then asked about money — Mack said expert testimony nets him several hundred thousand dollars a year. Reddington had him define confirmatory bias, then asked if he'd exhibited it evaluating Clancy; Mack said no. Mack testified his own evaluation didn't happen until 2026, three years after the incident, and that he came in already holding defense records, DCF files, and medical history. The actual sit-downs with Clancy ran about eight hours combined across two doctors, plus a separate day of psychological testing. He also laid out the diagnostic disagreement at the heart of this case: Drs. Heilbrun, Resnick, and Zeizel diagnosed bipolar 2, a different doctor diagnosed bipolar 1, and Mack pointed out postpartum psychosis doesn't even appear in the DSM as a standalone diagnosis.

    Prosecutors still intend to argue Clancy knew what she was doing at the time. After the killings, Clancy allegedly attempted suicide by jumping from a second-story window, leaving her paralyzed from the waist down. Her husband, Patrick Clancy, was out running errands and has since relocated to Manhattan. The trial continues in Plymouth Superior Court.

    Lindsay Clancy Trial: Defense Grills Prosecution Shrink Over Pay and Past Rejections Aug 24, 2026
    Show notes


    The Lindsay Clancy murder trial hit a rough patch Monday for the prosecution, as its own rebuttal witness, psychiatrist Dr. Avram Mack, spent hours under cross-examination from defense attorney Kevin Reddington. Clancy, 34, of Duxbury, Massachusetts, is accused of strangling her three children — 5-year-old Cora, 3-year-old Dawson, and 7-month-old Callan — with exercise resistance bands inside the family's Summer Street home on January 24, 2023. She faces three counts of murder and three counts of strangulation, has pleaded not guilty, and her attorneys are pursuing an insanity defense centered on severe postpartum psychosis and psychiatric overmedication.

    Reddington didn't ease in. He started with prior cases where courts had ruled Mack unqualified to testify, then moved to money — Mack testified he pulls in several hundred thousand dollars a year doing expert witness work. Asked to define confirmatory bias and then asked point-blank if he'd shown it evaluating Clancy, Mack said no. He testified he met with Clancy in 2026, three years removed from the killings, having already reviewed defense records, DCF documentation, and medical history — the evaluation itself ran roughly eight hours across two doctors and multiple days, including a full day of testing. He also acknowledged the diagnostic split in the case: Drs. Heilbrun, Resnick, and Zeizel diagnosed bipolar 2, another doctor diagnosed bipolar 1, and postpartum psychosis, he noted, isn't a recognized DSM diagnosis at all.

    Despite the rough cross, prosecutors are still expected to argue Clancy understood what she was doing regardless of her mental state. After the killings, Clancy allegedly attempted suicide by jumping from a second-story window and is now paralyzed from the waist down. Her husband, Patrick Clancy, was running errands at the time and has since relocated to Manhattan. The trial continues in Plymouth Superior Court.

    Lindsay Clancy’s Prosecutor Said THIS to the Family Aug 24, 2026
    Show notes

    The prosecution has rested its case against Lindsay Clancy. After three weeks and more than seventy witnesses, some of the prosecution’s most damaging moments came from their own conduct in the courtroom.
    On cross-examination of Lindsay’s former mother-in-law, the prosecutor asked whether she was an active Catholic, then asked if she was aware that murder is considered a mortal sin. The judge called a sidebar and instructed the jury to disregard the question. Lindsay’s mother took the stand and testified that her daughter said the medication was destroying her mind. The prosecution’s cross: why didn’t you have her committed? During autopsy testimony, Lindsay sobbed until the judge halted proceedings. The next morning brought a hot-mic dispute — the defense alleging someone said “shut her up,” the DA’s office claiming the words were “shut it off.”
    The prosecution opened the trial by calling a paralyzed woman’s jump from a second-story window a faked suicide attempt. Their own psychiatrist treated Lindsay exclusively by telehealth and admitted she never met her patient face to face.
    Eric Faddis, defense attorney and former prosecutor, breaks down the prosecution’s courtroom conduct and how a jury processes these moments.

    Who Killed Nolan Wells’ Phone Examination Deal? Aug 24, 2026
    Show notes

    The family agreed. The DA agreed. A joint forensic examination of Nolan Wells’ phone at the Digital Forensics Lab at Mississippi Gulf Coast Community College. Both sides’ experts in the room, possibly the FBI. Then a month went by without a date being set, and the DA sent a letter: hand over the phone in 48 hours.
    The phone had already been through civilian hands. Nolan’s mother and her sister opened both Snapchat accounts before any forensic protocol existed and found them empty. Meanwhile, the three friends who were with Nolan on Horn Island turned over their own devices to the FBI without being asked twice.
    Forensic experts say the longer that phone sits unexamined, the more data Snapchat and WhatsApp purge from their servers. The state autopsy is sealed. A grand jury is supposedly reviewing the case. And the phone that might answer what happened on July 4 has not been touched by a single forensic tool.
    Eric Faddis, a defense attorney and former prosecutor, breaks down who is responsible for the collapsed deal and whether the evidence can still be recovered.

    What Lindsay Clancy's Chaplain Left Out of Her Notes Aug 24, 2026
    Show notes

    Lindsay Clancy sat through fourteen telehealth sessions with her psychiatrist in the weeks before her three children died in their Duxbury home, and that doctor told the jury she never appeared psychotic. Then came the hospital chaplain — the person who has spent more hours with Clancy than nearly anyone alive, roughly two hundred visits across three years at Tewksbury Hospital. She testified that Clancy described a male voice commanding her to kill her children and then herself, or none of them would be safe. On cross-examination, the prosecutor got her to admit something the defense didn't want said out loud: in two hundred visits, she never wrote that voice down.
    That gap now sits at the center of the Lindsay Clancy murder trial. Once an insanity defense is raised under Massachusetts law, the burden shifts — prosecutors must prove beyond a reasonable doubt that Clancy was criminally responsible when she used exercise bands on her three children. To carry that burden, the state needs jurors to conclude the chaplain either missed the most important thing Clancy ever told her, or that Clancy invented it after she survived her own suicide attempt. Phone forensics don't make the answer easier — Clancy had searched "symptoms of postpartum psychosis," timed her husband's errand, and ordered the takeout that cleared him out of the house.
    The defense calls it a woman failed by a medical system that kept adjusting her prescriptions without hearing her. The prosecution calls it premeditation with a convenient excuse attached. Tony Brueski lays out both sides of a case that keeps getting harder to call, with closing arguments expected the week of August 24.
