Lindsay Clancy's Medication Chart Revealed WHAT To Jurors?

Five drugs, one chart, zero coordination. That's how defense attorney Kevin Reddington framed Lindsay Clancy's psychiatric care for a Plymouth County jury — lorazepam, sertraline, hydroxyzine, buspirone, trazodone, stacked on a new mother by providers who never once talked to each other. He paired it with her handwritten journal from December 2022, a month before the killings, pages he said had collapsed into chicken scratches because her mind was already gone. The defense closed with forensic psychiatrist Phillip Resnick, who evaluated Andrea Yates decades earlier and told this jury Clancy was clearly psychotic when she killed Cora, Dawson, and Callan. Then there's what the prosecution's own witnesses said. Forensic psychologist Kirk Heilbrun told jurors this was a serious suicide attempt accompanied by killing her children out of love, because she couldn't bear to leave them behind. Forensic psychiatrist Gregory Saathoff, pressed by the defense, agreed the state's own opening statement had minimized what Clancy was going through, while also flagging inconsistencies in her account of the voice she says ordered the killings. ADA Jennifer Sprague's closing pushed back hard: Clancy made a rational choice, her children were the only thing keeping her from taking her own life, and she left them in the basement and went upstairs to finish what she'd planned for herself. Nine women and three men deliberated three and a half hours on their first day and went home without a verdict. Retired FBI Special Agent Jennifer Coffindaffer and defense attorney Bob Motta join Tony Brueski to argue over whether the state's own witnesses ended up handing the defense its case.
