What Lindsay Clancy Told Her Doctor One Day Before

On January 23, 2023, Lindsay Clancy told her psychiatrist she felt numb, had no motivation, and was forcing herself out of bed. She denied any thoughts of hurting anyone. The next day she killed Cora, Dawson, and Callan. That visit is the hinge of the Lindsay Clancy trial, and ex-FBI agent Jennifer Coffindaffer argues with Tony Brueski that it proves she was responsible.

Tony argues the opposite: a woman in treatment the day before, cleared by a hospital nineteen days before, calling suicide hotlines a month before, is not a woman hiding her illness. The defense rested on August 21, 2026, with Dr. Phillip Resnick, who testified she was psychotic and following a command voice. He's the psychiatrist whose testimony helped acquit Andrea Yates.

The conversation runs the guilt camp's claims through the testimony. Planning: Yates planned and was acquitted. Sociopath: the Commonwealth's own testing showed no faking and a pattern of downplaying symptoms, which is backwards for a faker. Staged jump: neck wound, cut wrists, a second-story fall, permanent paralysis, and an ongoing suicide watch at Tewksbury Hospital.

Then the rebuttal. Dr. Avram Mack, called by prosecutors, met Clancy in April 2026 and testified she understood the wrongfulness of what she did. Mack also told the jury she said "go to God" to the children. A chaplain testified that on January 31, 2023, the first thing Clancy said to her was that she was glad her children were safe. Resnick said she told him her death would've put the children in a terrible spot.

Clancy denies three murder counts on the ground that she wasn't criminally responsible. The jury has heard both sides' doctors. It hasn't heard closings yet.
