13th Juror Podcast

The Lindsay Clancy trial ended in a mistrial — but the conversation surrounding this case is far from over.
In this bonus episode, Brandi sits down with James “Buddy” Day, creator and host of Unmarked, for a conversation about the verdict, the jury’s deliberations, and the complicated intersection of mental illness and criminal responsibility.
This is also the first of several upcoming collaborations with Buddy. Next up: a deeper look at the Andrea Yates case, why it was compared so often to Lindsay Clancy, and where those comparisons do — and don’t — hold up.
Listen to Unmarked wherever you get your podcasts.

This week on Court Report:
A breakthrough more than 40 years in the making in the Texas Killing Fields — and a jury that needed less than an hour to make its decision.
A former NFL scout learns his fate in a case involving a poisoned drink.
A massive DNA scandal raises questions about more than a thousand criminal cases.
Plus — an Egyptian media personality facing the ultimate punishment, a Grammy-winning rapper waiting on a federal jury, serious charges involving the teenage son of two reality-TV stars, and a surprising new development for the Menendez brothers.
Then in Juror Notes: new trouble for Barry Morphew, Alex Murdaugh finally learns where he'll face a jury again, and Mario Fernandez Saldana wants another shot at his case.
And finally, 25 years later, we take a moment to remember September 11.

Just when we thought the Lindsay Clancy series was over, the trial’s final day brought a stunning mistrial, a last-minute appeal to Massachusetts’ highest court, and a courtroom battle unlike anything we’ve seen before.
Now, jurors are speaking out about what happened behind closed doors—including the evidence that changed their minds, the lone holdout, and why eleven of them believed Lindsay was not criminally responsible.
Plus, both sides look ahead as the defense prepares its next legal fight.
As always, I'll lay out the evidence so you can be the 13th Juror and decide for yourself.

THE LINDSAY CLANCY TRIAL: CLOSING ARGUMENTS & A JURY DIVIDED
After weeks of testimony, the Lindsay Clancy trial is finally in the hands of the jury.
In this episode, we break down the closing arguments from both sides — the defense’s claim that Lindsay was suffering from postpartum psychosis and the prosecution’s argument that her actions show she knew exactly what she was doing.
We’ll cover the defense’s “three quarters” demonstration, the prosecution’s response, the final battle over Lindsay’s mental state, and the instructions jurors were given to decide criminal responsibility.
Then, we follow the deliberations as the jury struggles to reach a unanimous decision — including multiple notes to the judge and the revelation that one juror may be standing between this case and a verdict.
After everything we’ve heard, can twelve jurors agree on what was happening in Lindsay Clancy’s mind on January 24, 2023?

This week on Court Report, we’ve got two major verdicts — including a long-awaited decision in one of the most infamous murders in music history.
Nearly 30 years after Tupac Shakur was killed, a Las Vegas jury has finally decided the fate of Duane “Keffe D” Davis.
Then, we’re going back ten years to the disappearance of 19-year-old Morgan Bauer. For more than seven years, her family searched for answers — until an unexpected break finally led investigators to her remains and two people accused of her murder.
Plus, Barry Morphew is back in the headlines while awaiting trial for the murder of his wife, Suzanne — and this time it has nothing to do with the murder case itself. An alleged hit-and-run caught on camera got the attention of the judge overseeing his case and resulted in some much stricter bond conditions.
And in Juror Notes:
• Bryan Kohberger adds another attorney to his new legal team — and that attorney is hinting there may be much more coming in the fight to undo Kohberger’s guilty plea.
• Tyler Robinson takes another step toward trial in the murder of Charlie Kirk.
• There’s a surprising change at the defense table in the D4vd case — and Celeste Rivas Hernandez’s family has some questions about it.
• Another setback for Mackenzie Shirilla as she continues challenging her convictions following renewed attention from Netflix’s The Crash.
• And we’ll look ahead to an important sentencing decision coming next week in the Blaise Taylor case.
Finally, after more than five weeks of testimony and an extraordinarily long verdict watch, the Lindsay Clancy trial is nearing its end. The final episode of our 13th Juror Lindsay Clancy series will be out as soon as we officially know how this trial ends.
And then, by popular demand, we’re heading to Florida.
The next case on 13th Juror: the trial of Mario Fernandez Saldana for the murder of Jared Bridegan.
