Lindsay Clancy's Prosecution Expert Just Made The Defense's Case

Forensic psychologist Kirk Heilbrun took the stand for the prosecution to prove Lindsay Clancy was criminally responsible for killing her three children. He told the jury it was a serious suicide attempt accompanied by killing the children out of love. He said Clancy retained moral awareness — but his own language characterized the motive as love, not deliberate cruelty.
A second prosecution expert, forensic psychiatrist Gregory Saathoff, agreed on the stand that the prosecution's own opening statement minimized what Clancy had endured. Saathoff also pointed to inconsistencies in Clancy's account of the command hallucination she described — including that the voice appeared for the first time on the day of the killings and stopped the moment the children were dead.
Retired FBI Special Agent Jennifer Coffindaffer joins Tony Brueski as the jury deliberates. They see this case very differently and get into where the prosecution landed after four weeks of testimony and closing arguments.
Sprague told the jury Clancy planned it, calculated the window, and made a rational choice. She called the children broken toys left on the basement floor.
The jury — nine women and three men — deliberated for three and a half hours on day one with no verdict.
