{"type":"rich","version":"1.0","title":"Why Patrick Clancy Became The State's First Witness ","description":"Prosecutors in the Lindsay Clancy trial had their pick of witnesses to open with. They chose the father of the three children she's accused of killing, and built their first afternoon in court around a bag of nine pill bottles.\nPatrick Clancy had to describe Cora, Dawson, and Callan to the jury before anyone mentioned January 24, 2023. Then a prosecutor read him the counts on nine prescription bottles, one at a time, and asked how much was missing from each. The state says a woman who barely touched her prescriptions can't turn around and blame them. The defense points to thirteen prescriptions written by multiple prescribers across four months, with nobody connecting the pattern until it was too late.\nTony Brueski lays out why that choice of opening witness says as much as anything in the testimony itself, what the videos of Lindsay looking completely fine are actually meant to prove, and the number Patrick gave investigators that sent him looking for his own lawyer before this case ever reached a courtroom.\nThe prosecution told the jury this case isn't about how the medical system treats women. Their first witness spent the afternoon proving otherwise.\nLinks\nJoin Our SubStack For AD-FREE ADVANCE EPISODES & EXTRAS!: https://hiddenkillers.substack.com/\nWant to comment and watch this podcast as a video?
