{"type":"rich","version":"1.0","title":"What Lindsay Clancy's Lawyer Really Wants From Trump","description":"Kevin Reddington asked President Trump for a pardon on national television, and a pardon is the one thing Trump cannot give him. Eric Faddis, defense attorney and former prosecutor, joins True Crime Today to explain what the request is actually for.\n\nLindsay Clancy's trial ended in a mistrial on September 4, 2026, after the jury deliberated 38 hours across seven days. Reddington says the split was 11-1 in favor of acquittal. On Good Morning America he asked the president to \"consider this young lady and the person she is, what she's been through, and consider a pardon.\" Presidents can only pardon federal crimes. Reddington then described Plymouth County DA Tim Cruz as a hard-charging, conservative prosecutor and said he hoped Cruz would reconsider after seeing the evidence.\n\nReddington has also ruled out any plea with jail time, saying he would not plead Lindsay Clancy to a single day because she was sick. A Rule 25 motion for a required finding of not guilty, asking the judge to end the case for lack of evidence, is set for September 29.\n\nEric explains how a televised plea to a president becomes pressure on a county prosecutor. He weighs whether a public no-jail ultimatum is a bluff or a demand the jury split supports. He describes what a defense team says to prosecutors after a near-acquittal. He explains why a motion judges rarely grant still has a purpose. And he walks through how a deal gets built around psychiatric care instead of prison, with no admission of guilt.\n\nLindsay Clancy is charged with three counts of first-degree murder in the January 24, 2023 deaths of Cora, Dawson, and Callan. She is held at Tewksbury Hospital while the DA decides whether to retry her.\n\nListen Anywhere You Get Podcasts: https://pod.link/1655749292\n\nWant to comment and watch this podcast as a video?
