Lindsay Clancy's Nurse Practitioner Had No Idea About THIS

Lindsay Clancy saw her psychiatrist fourteen times in four months. Her nurse practitioner, who was also prescribing her medications, had no knowledge of those visits. When Clancy checked herself into a locked psychiatric unit, neither outpatient provider was notified.

Retired FBI Special Agent Jennifer Coffindaffer joins Tony Brueski on True Crime Today to cover what these provider coordination failures mean in a case where three children — Cora, five, Dawson, three, and Callan, eight months — are dead.

The trial at Plymouth Superior Court is in its third week. Testimony has shown Clancy searched "hallucinations" on her phone five days before January 24, 2023. She messaged providers that she felt completely hopeless and was experiencing unfamiliar intrusive thoughts. A postpartum treatment program she reached out to declined to accept her because of the number of medications she was already taking.

Peer-reviewed literature documents postpartum psychosis as a rare condition — roughly one in every thousand births — with a four percent infanticide rate. Clancy's defense argues she was in the grip of that condition. The prosecution argues she was deliberate.

Clancy attempted to end her own life immediately after. She jumped from a window and shattered her spine. She is permanently paralyzed. Coffindaffer covers what a jury does with evidence of a suicide attempt that severe, what it means that the system she was begging for help had no internal communication, and how an investigator reads the gap between a mother who planned a killing and a mother who could not stop one.

Lindsay Clancy has pleaded not guilty. She is presumed innocent.
