Lindsay Clancy told a Plymouth Superior Court courtroom she couldn't do it. She was sobbing at the defense table as a medical examiner described the autopsy findings for her five-year-old daughter. The judge halted proceedings. Her father wept in the gallery. Some members of the jury were crying.
Clancy has pleaded not guilty to three counts of first-degree murder. She admits to killing her children Cora, 5, Dawson, 3, and Callan, 8 months, but argues postpartum psychosis and overmedication are at the center of what happened in their Duxbury home in January 2023. Prosecutors allege the killings were intentional.
Defense attorney Kevin Reddington did not ask the autopsy witness a single question. He stayed at the table holding his client's shoulder while she wept. The jury watched all of it.
Criminal defense trial attorney Bob Motta was inside that courtroom. He breaks down what happens to a defendant after three weeks of trial testimony, what the jury's reactions are telling him, and whether Lindsay Clancy's visible anguish is devastating the prosecution's argument that she acted rationally.

Five mental health professionals took the witness stand this week at Plymouth Superior Court as prosecution witnesses in the Lindsay Clancy murder trial. Every one of them described a woman in psychiatric crisis — cycling through medications, unable to sleep, calling a suicide hotline, begging providers to help her. The prosecution called them to prove Clancy was rational. The jury heard something else.
Clancy has pleaded not guilty to three counts of first-degree murder in the deaths of her children Cora, 5, Dawson, 3, and Callan, 8 months. Her defense attorney Kevin Reddington argues she was overmedicated and suffering from postpartum psychosis.
The most damaging moment for the prosecution came when Dr. Jennifer Tufts, the psychiatrist who treated Clancy for four months exclusively through telehealth, contradicted her own medical records on the stand. Reddington read the notes back to her. She told the jury she didn't mean what she wrote.
Criminal defense trial attorney Bob Motta of Defense Diaries has been in the courtroom observing the prosecution's case. He breaks down what the jury is actually hearing, what Tufts's cross-examination revealed, and whether the Commonwealth's own witness list is doing the defense's work.

TikTok creators are calling Patrick Clancy the real killer. Lindsay Clancy's own defense team has already told a courtroom she did it. Defense attorney and former prosecutor Eric Faddis breaks down what Patrick can do about online accusations reaching millions of people — and psychotherapist Shavaun Scott digs into a warning that came months before the deaths and never changed the treatment plan. 
Lindsay has pleaded not guilty to three counts of first-degree murder over the deaths of five-year-old Cora, three-year-old Dawson, and eight-month-old Callan. Her defense argues severe postpartum illness removed her criminal responsibility. Prosecutors argue she acted with intention. 
In 2022, nurse practitioner Rebecca Jollotta raised the possibility of bipolar disorder with Lindsay and her husband, partly based on a reported forty-eight hours without sleep on a new antidepressant. She prescribed an antipsychotic used for bipolar disorder and insomnia, while the antidepressant regimen continued. Dr. Jennifer Tufts testified she weighed bipolar disorder that December and set it aside for lack of mania. Staff at McLean Hospital discussed sleep loss tipping a patient hypomanic before discharging her with a diagnosis of major depressive disorder. 
Shavaun explains why bipolar disorder often takes years to diagnose correctly, why depression is usually the first label clinicians reach for, and whether the criteria taught in training even apply to a new mother. 
Faddis then returns to Patrick — creators dissecting his remarriage, analyzing his testimony for signs of guilt, and building narratives the trial evidence doesn't support. He lays out what the Alex Jones and Sandy Hook verdicts established, and why suing anonymous creators with no assets may not be worth the fight regardless of the law.

A rental company owned by two people accused of hiring Jared Bridegan's killer wrote him a check with "Good luck!" on the memo line. Seven weeks after the murder. That detail is now part of a Jacksonville trial that started with its confessed gunman refusing to cooperate. 
Henry Tenon told investigators he pulled the trigger and signed a plea deal to testify against Mario Fernandez and Shanna Gardner. Four years and one day after Jared Bridegan was shot, Tenon stood before a judge and asked for a trial of his own instead. Prosecutors did not object. 
Bridegan was 33, worked at Microsoft, and had four children. He was killed on February 16, 2022, after dropping his twins at Gardner's home and stopping to move a tire off the road, his two-year-old daughter still in the car. A bullet missed her by inches. 
A grand jury charged Fernandez with a count that existed only because that child was in the vehicle. Prosecutors quietly dropped it two weeks before jury selection. Days later, the same prosecutor told the court the state has overwhelming evidence of a conspiracy — and that an unidentified second person drove away from the scene in a pickup truck. 
Fernandez's defense says every check the family company wrote, including the $10,000 that reached Tenon's account within weeks of the killing, paid for legitimate landscaping and roof work. Prosecutors counter with three dozen calls between Fernandez and Tenon that same month and a jailhouse informant who says Fernandez tried to pin the murder on Jared's widow. Fernandez has pleaded not guilty. Trial runs August 17 through 28.

Lindsay Clancy messaged her providers almost every day, begging them to change what wasn't working. Defense attorney and former prosecutor Eric Faddis joins Tony Brueski to break down a defense case built less on a single moment and more on months of documented desperation. 
Thirteen psychiatric medications. Daily messages asking for adjustments. Journal entries describing intrusive thoughts and brain fog in the weeks before her children died. Not one provider diagnosed postpartum psychosis before that day — every doctor and nurse practitioner who saw her documented anxiety and depression instead. The psychosis diagnosis came later, from a forensic psychiatrist retained by the defense, a timing detail Faddis says both sides know matters more than almost anything else in the record. 
Faddis explains why Kevin Reddington has spent three weeks dismantling the providers who treated Lindsay, including her psychiatrist, who admitted under cross-examination that she never once met Lindsay in person across fourteen telehealth sessions, didn't have her complete medical record, and didn't know Lindsay had called a suicide hotline twice. 
On the other side, prosecutors are leaning on what Lindsay did that morning — sending her husband out for takeout, timing his errand, and a specific search on her phone beforehand. Faddis walks through why the state considers that detail central, and why the defense conceded from day one that Lindsay killed her children, choosing instead to fight over whether she was herself when it happened. 
What Massachusetts law requires the state to prove beyond a reasonable doubt is where this case now turns, and Faddis makes the case for why the providers on both witness lists may end up mattering as much as anything said in closing arguments.
