Why Lindsay Clancy's Career Is Being Used Against Her

In the Lindsay Clancy murder trial, the prosecution wants the jury to know what she did for a living — and to draw a very specific conclusion from it.

She was a labor and delivery nurse. The Commonwealth's argument is that a woman with that training knew how the mental health system evaluates a patient, knew what to report, and knew how to shape what people saw. Kevin Reddington's answer is that she was the one patient in the entire chain who could name what was happening to her, and every institution she named it to still sent her home.

This is the complete three-part conversation between Tony Brueski and criminal defense trial attorney Bob Motta.

The opening segment works through the prosecution file — the text about not feeling like cooking, the dinner order, the errand that put her husband on the road for roughly fifty minutes, and a note prosecutors say she typed about her older children months before. The middle segment takes on the defense, including a ruling that keeps women who have survived postpartum psychosis out of the witness box, the medication history her lawyer describes as roughly thirteen prescriptions in about four months, and the nineteen days between a psychiatric discharge and three deaths. The final segment asks what any verdict here is supposed to accomplish, given that one path leads to a state hospital and the other to mandatory life without parole.

There is also Patrick Clancy, who buried three children, asked the public to forgive his wife, is suing her doctors, and is going to testify.

Cora, Dawson, and Callan were five, three, and eight months old. Everything in that courtroom is being argued through their mother.
