Lindsay Clancy Lost THIS Before Her Trial Started

Lindsay Clancy trial update — the defense went into jury selection already down a weapon, and it happened in a pretrial ruling most people never heard about.

Judge William Sullivan denied Kevin Reddington's request to call women who have been through postpartum psychosis as witnesses. No lay testimony about the condition. Experts only. For a defense whose entire case depends on a jury genuinely understanding an illness almost none of them have encountered, that ruling matters more than any piece of physical evidence in the file.

What Reddington still has is a timeline that reads like an indictment of everyone who touched her chart. At the end of December, Lindsay Clancy told her husband she was having thoughts of hurting her children. She checked herself into a psychiatric hospital on New Year's Eve. She was released. Nineteen days later her three children were dead. Her lawyer puts the medication count at roughly thirteen psychiatric drugs in about four months, and her malpractice suit describes a dose raised the day before with no sleep that night.

Criminal defense trial attorney Bob Motta, host of Defense Diaries, joins Tony Brueski to break the defense down honestly — what works, what does not, and what a jury is likely to reject on instinct. A lot of people watching this are on medication a doctor handed them. They deserve a straight answer about what these drugs can and cannot do.

Then there is Patrick Clancy, testifying and suing at the same time, and the decision Reddington may have to make about putting his client on that stand.

The defense is not arguing she did not do it. It is arguing that everybody else had a chance to stop it.
