What the Voices Told Lindsay Clancy the Night Her Children Died

"This is your last chance." That's what the defense says Lindsay Clancy heard on January 24, 2023 — voices telling her to act. She had been on thirteen psychiatric medications. She had been messaging her providers almost daily begging to change them. Her journal described intrusive thoughts, insomnia, and a desperation that built for months.
No clinician diagnosed postpartum psychosis before that night. Every provider documented anxiety and depression. The psychosis diagnosis came after, from a forensic psychiatrist retained by the defense.
Kevin Reddington's case doesn't dispute that Lindsay killed her children. It argues she was incapable of understanding what she was doing. He's spent three weeks dismantling the providers who treated her — exposing telehealth-only sessions, incomplete records, missed warning signs, and a prescribing pattern he's called "horrific." The judge barred him from calling other mothers who've experienced postpartum psychosis. He's now fighting to add a former McLean Hospital employee to the witness list through a TikTok video.
Defense attorney and former prosecutor Eric Faddis breaks down whether the defense's strategy is working, where its risks are, and what happens when a case built on a diagnosis that didn't exist until after the crime reaches a jury that has to look at three dead children and decide whether their mother was too sick to be punished.
