WEBVTT - Killer Mom Trial: More Fiery Testimony Expected Today, Forensic Psychiatrist Back On Stand

0:00:02.160 --> 0:00:05.800
<v Speaker 1>Hey, the folks sit is Monday, August twenty fourth, and

0:00:06.240 --> 0:00:11.600
<v Speaker 1>Week five of the Lindsay Clancy triple murder trial begins today.

0:00:11.800 --> 0:00:15.280
<v Speaker 1>This could be the final week of the Lindsay Clancy

0:00:15.360 --> 0:00:17.880
<v Speaker 1>triple murder trial. And with that, welcome to this episode

0:00:18.160 --> 0:00:20.239
<v Speaker 1>of Amy and TJ. Here we are rope. This could

0:00:20.280 --> 0:00:23.119
<v Speaker 1>be wrapped up closing statements as early as tomorrow.

0:00:23.280 --> 0:00:24.600
<v Speaker 2>Possibly that's possible.

0:00:24.720 --> 0:00:28.400
<v Speaker 3>We know that today that we're going to have the

0:00:28.400 --> 0:00:33.120
<v Speaker 3>prosecution's first rebuttal witness back on the stand. And that

0:00:33.280 --> 0:00:37.680
<v Speaker 3>was certainly a contentious back and forth on Friday with

0:00:37.840 --> 0:00:42.479
<v Speaker 3>doctor Avra Mack. Yes, yes, he was there on Friday

0:00:42.600 --> 0:00:46.480
<v Speaker 3>after the defense rested its case and the prosecution put

0:00:46.520 --> 0:00:51.199
<v Speaker 3>on its first rebuttal witness. But man, fireworks might be

0:00:51.280 --> 0:00:54.000
<v Speaker 3>one way to describe the back and forth exchange between

0:00:54.160 --> 0:00:59.160
<v Speaker 3>the defense and doctor Mack. And that should continue this

0:00:59.280 --> 0:01:01.480
<v Speaker 3>morning and the trial resumes.

0:01:01.520 --> 0:01:03.360
<v Speaker 1>All the fire seemed to be coming for one direction

0:01:03.480 --> 0:01:07.680
<v Speaker 1>from Kevin Reddington, the defense attorney for Lindsay Klantzk, who

0:01:07.720 --> 0:01:11.040
<v Speaker 1>has been putting on an extraordinary display and a curinary defense.

0:01:11.080 --> 0:01:16.479
<v Speaker 1>But ros yes he dressed this guy down. Yeah, it

0:01:16.600 --> 0:01:19.479
<v Speaker 1>was remarkable to watch it again. Do you think Avram

0:01:19.520 --> 0:01:21.640
<v Speaker 1>Mack went home and watched it. Do you think he

0:01:21.680 --> 0:01:22.920
<v Speaker 1>watched his testimony back.

0:01:23.040 --> 0:01:25.119
<v Speaker 3>I don't know if he could relive that, and maybe

0:01:25.160 --> 0:01:27.000
<v Speaker 3>he needed to to do.

0:01:26.920 --> 0:01:29.840
<v Speaker 2>Better today on the stand. I'm not sure, but.

0:01:30.280 --> 0:01:34.280
<v Speaker 3>Yes, the judge had to interrupt some contentious testimony.

0:01:34.280 --> 0:01:35.760
<v Speaker 2>They were talking over each other.

0:01:36.400 --> 0:01:40.199
<v Speaker 3>And once you have doctor Avernmack get on the stand

0:01:40.240 --> 0:01:43.920
<v Speaker 3>and say point blank to the jurors that he does

0:01:44.000 --> 0:01:48.160
<v Speaker 3>not believe Lindsay Clancy was suffering from postpartum psychosis. He

0:01:48.200 --> 0:01:51.520
<v Speaker 3>said he does not believe Lindsey Clancy had bipolar disorder.

0:01:51.920 --> 0:01:55.320
<v Speaker 3>So yeah, the defense needed to do what it did

0:01:55.400 --> 0:01:55.920
<v Speaker 3>to try and.

0:01:55.880 --> 0:01:57.720
<v Speaker 2>Discredit him and.

0:01:59.040 --> 0:02:02.520
<v Speaker 3>Have the jury not believe what he had just testified

0:02:02.560 --> 0:02:04.200
<v Speaker 3>to because it's the cruxt of their case.

0:02:04.400 --> 0:02:07.360
<v Speaker 1>But they also made you not like him at certain parts.

0:02:07.960 --> 0:02:10.720
<v Speaker 1>Kevin Reddington went out this guy and I thought he

0:02:10.760 --> 0:02:13.120
<v Speaker 1>was going to be solid, rob I thought he was steady,

0:02:13.160 --> 0:02:15.280
<v Speaker 1>and I thought he was going to make but slowly

0:02:15.320 --> 0:02:17.960
<v Speaker 1>but surely, Kevin Reddington kept chipping away at this guy too.

0:02:18.040 --> 0:02:21.079
<v Speaker 1>He finally got annoyed. He became a little bit of

0:02:21.120 --> 0:02:23.399
<v Speaker 1>a jerk up there and rolling his eyes and how

0:02:23.440 --> 0:02:25.440
<v Speaker 1>he was dealing with it, and it made him feel

0:02:25.600 --> 0:02:28.280
<v Speaker 1>robes one sided. It made it feel like he wasn't

0:02:28.280 --> 0:02:31.520
<v Speaker 1>there for his expertise or the science of it all.

0:02:31.639 --> 0:02:35.320
<v Speaker 1>He was there to help the prosecution make their case.

0:02:35.880 --> 0:02:39.360
<v Speaker 1>And when you have doctrine front your name to come

0:02:39.400 --> 0:02:43.480
<v Speaker 1>off as being on one side even though you're there

0:02:43.480 --> 0:02:45.839
<v Speaker 1>for the prosecution, we get it. But he came off

0:02:45.919 --> 0:02:48.680
<v Speaker 1>like he was trying to score some points for the prosecution.

0:02:48.800 --> 0:02:51.800
<v Speaker 3>Absolutely, And at the beginning, Kevin Reddington had him admit

0:02:51.840 --> 0:02:56.480
<v Speaker 3>that he is paid for his expert witness testimony by

0:02:56.480 --> 0:02:58.640
<v Speaker 3>the prosecution, and look, I think a lot of people

0:02:58.720 --> 0:02:59.920
<v Speaker 3>understand that's how it works.

0:03:00.240 --> 0:03:03.720
<v Speaker 2>Just to have to have him admit that obviously.

0:03:03.320 --> 0:03:08.040
<v Speaker 3>Creates a certain lens through which the jury was going

0:03:08.080 --> 0:03:10.360
<v Speaker 3>to view his testimony. But I thought that was a

0:03:10.400 --> 0:03:14.600
<v Speaker 3>fair point. And look, he said the only thing he

0:03:14.639 --> 0:03:17.960
<v Speaker 3>would give in terms of what Lindsay Clancy's mental state was.

0:03:17.960 --> 0:03:21.639
<v Speaker 3>He said she had a major depressive episode as part

0:03:21.680 --> 0:03:23.760
<v Speaker 3>of a major depressive disorder.

0:03:24.200 --> 0:03:25.320
<v Speaker 2>But notably, he.

0:03:25.200 --> 0:03:27.880
<v Speaker 3>Claimed, and he maintained the entire time, that she had

0:03:27.919 --> 0:03:32.160
<v Speaker 3>the capacity to understand what was right and what was wrong,

0:03:32.200 --> 0:03:34.600
<v Speaker 3>and a lot of it was He mentioned that She

0:03:35.280 --> 0:03:37.800
<v Speaker 3>told him that she heard this male voice that said

0:03:37.880 --> 0:03:41.560
<v Speaker 3>go to God, and in his opinion, that meant she

0:03:41.720 --> 0:03:44.720
<v Speaker 3>knew exactly what she was doing, she knew it was wrong.

0:03:45.000 --> 0:03:47.360
<v Speaker 3>She waited until her husband was gone because she knew

0:03:47.360 --> 0:03:49.960
<v Speaker 3>he would intervene. These are all signs that someone knew

0:03:50.000 --> 0:03:51.760
<v Speaker 3>exactly what they were doing was wrong.

0:03:52.000 --> 0:03:56.200
<v Speaker 1>I didn't. I don't know how much. I don't know

0:03:56.240 --> 0:03:57.960
<v Speaker 1>what do you think how much emphasis was put on

0:03:57.960 --> 0:04:02.080
<v Speaker 1>that go to God sentence? I thought it was totally

0:04:02.160 --> 0:04:04.560
<v Speaker 1>interesting and I was curious, but his interpretation of it

0:04:04.600 --> 0:04:07.800
<v Speaker 1>was difficult for me to really grasp to. How do

0:04:07.800 --> 0:04:10.800
<v Speaker 1>you make the jump from she said that phrase. Therefore,

0:04:10.840 --> 0:04:11.920
<v Speaker 1>she was saying.

0:04:12.000 --> 0:04:14.440
<v Speaker 3>Just because she knew she was killing them didn't mean

0:04:14.600 --> 0:04:17.120
<v Speaker 3>she knew it was wrong to do it. Because the

0:04:17.320 --> 0:04:23.160
<v Speaker 3>argument has been made by several defense witnesses that and

0:04:23.200 --> 0:04:25.560
<v Speaker 3>the one actually right before. And I thought, this is

0:04:25.560 --> 0:04:27.719
<v Speaker 3>really interesting. We haven't gone over this, he talked about

0:04:27.880 --> 0:04:30.480
<v Speaker 3>on the day of the murders. He believes that miss

0:04:30.560 --> 0:04:35.880
<v Speaker 3>Clancy was psychotic, and this was the defense's final witness,

0:04:35.920 --> 0:04:38.960
<v Speaker 3>doctor Philip Resnick, who's also a forensic psychiatrist, But he

0:04:39.040 --> 0:04:42.960
<v Speaker 3>claimed that there were two things Miss Lindsay Clancy was

0:04:42.960 --> 0:04:47.400
<v Speaker 3>dealing with altruistic philicide and acutely psychotic philicide. The altruistic

0:04:47.440 --> 0:04:50.200
<v Speaker 3>philicide is that she was killing her children out of love.

0:04:50.240 --> 0:04:54.320
<v Speaker 3>She had a distorted, delusional belief that her children would

0:04:54.320 --> 0:04:57.359
<v Speaker 3>be worse off if they were left alive. And you

0:04:57.440 --> 0:05:00.440
<v Speaker 3>couple that with the time that with his but opinion

0:05:00.480 --> 0:05:03.880
<v Speaker 3>that she was psychotic, that all shows she did not know.

0:05:04.520 --> 0:05:08.760
<v Speaker 3>She is not responsible for the criminality of killing her

0:05:08.839 --> 0:05:11.960
<v Speaker 3>children because she believed she was doing something good for them.

0:05:12.240 --> 0:05:13.120
<v Speaker 2>So go to God.

0:05:13.600 --> 0:05:18.240
<v Speaker 3>So to me, I don't know that this rebuttal witness

0:05:18.320 --> 0:05:20.520
<v Speaker 3>did it for me with his go to God explanation.

0:05:21.160 --> 0:05:23.000
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, I didn't make it. It was a leap. It

0:05:23.000 --> 0:05:26.800
<v Speaker 1>didn't necessarily I heard him out. I just it didn't.

0:05:27.480 --> 0:05:30.279
<v Speaker 1>It didn't read for me, and the I couldn't tell.

0:05:30.400 --> 0:05:33.680
<v Speaker 1>The other forensic psychiatrist was saying the two philicides, the

0:05:33.720 --> 0:05:37.240
<v Speaker 1>altruistic and was the other one acutely psychotic acutely psychotic?

0:05:37.520 --> 0:05:40.280
<v Speaker 1>If she was he saying she had both of them,

0:05:40.360 --> 0:05:41.400
<v Speaker 1>or as one of the others.

0:05:41.480 --> 0:05:44.480
<v Speaker 3>He was saying she had both and so and that

0:05:44.640 --> 0:05:47.880
<v Speaker 3>so she had this idea and this is part of

0:05:47.880 --> 0:05:51.359
<v Speaker 3>her psychosis. That she was doing something good for her kids,

0:05:51.560 --> 0:05:54.279
<v Speaker 3>So saying go to God was actually her saying, I'm

0:05:54.279 --> 0:05:56.719
<v Speaker 3>doing something good for you. I'm sending you to a

0:05:56.760 --> 0:06:00.440
<v Speaker 3>better place, because you'll be worse off I go to

0:06:00.720 --> 0:06:03.640
<v Speaker 3>I'm going to be dead because she had her intention

0:06:03.760 --> 0:06:06.320
<v Speaker 3>to die by suicide, to jump throw herself out of

0:06:06.360 --> 0:06:08.680
<v Speaker 3>that window, so she felt like her children would be

0:06:08.680 --> 0:06:12.559
<v Speaker 3>better off with her with God than alive.

0:06:12.800 --> 0:06:16.720
<v Speaker 1>We've heard that before in other cases of people, So

0:06:16.839 --> 0:06:20.440
<v Speaker 1>I that was the first time I'm hearing an explanation

0:06:20.520 --> 0:06:23.440
<v Speaker 1>that goes in the face of what I thought was

0:06:23.480 --> 0:06:26.040
<v Speaker 1>the case. Was just that they're killing their kids because

0:06:26.080 --> 0:06:29.479
<v Speaker 1>they want them to be better off, because they won't

0:06:29.480 --> 0:06:33.000
<v Speaker 1>be doing well if I'm gone. I bro So the

0:06:33.040 --> 0:06:35.320
<v Speaker 1>go to God didn't work. Again. He seems to be

0:06:35.360 --> 0:06:39.120
<v Speaker 1>a credible enough guy, but Reddington has a way of

0:06:39.120 --> 0:06:40.599
<v Speaker 1>making everybody not look readibal.

0:06:40.960 --> 0:06:44.839
<v Speaker 3>He started off by just questioning doctor Max's actual knowledge

0:06:44.880 --> 0:06:48.240
<v Speaker 3>of Lindsay, her case, her background, and then went into

0:06:48.279 --> 0:06:49.280
<v Speaker 3>his credentials.

0:06:50.040 --> 0:06:53.120
<v Speaker 1>It was effective on the back just asking her simple stuff,

0:06:53.320 --> 0:06:55.320
<v Speaker 1>asking simple stuff that you think she would know, like

0:06:55.560 --> 0:06:57.720
<v Speaker 1>what was she taking, what did she watch? What was

0:06:57.800 --> 0:06:58.680
<v Speaker 1>she eat? Like just bait.

0:06:58.720 --> 0:07:01.280
<v Speaker 3>How much did she work out, When did she get married,

0:07:01.360 --> 0:07:02.680
<v Speaker 3>how long has she been married?

0:07:02.680 --> 0:07:04.240
<v Speaker 2>What are her coworkers think of her?

0:07:04.560 --> 0:07:08.360
<v Speaker 3>How would you He basically exposed the fact that doctor

0:07:08.440 --> 0:07:14.600
<v Speaker 3>Mack didn't do any sort of interview or research on

0:07:14.960 --> 0:07:18.440
<v Speaker 3>Lindsey by talking to co workers, friend's family.

0:07:18.480 --> 0:07:20.400
<v Speaker 2>And look, I'm not saying that he's.

0:07:20.200 --> 0:07:23.240
<v Speaker 3>Supposed to or should have, but Reddington made it appear

0:07:23.280 --> 0:07:23.960
<v Speaker 3>like he should have.

0:07:24.320 --> 0:07:26.280
<v Speaker 1>But that's the thing. I don't know if he needs

0:07:26.280 --> 0:07:29.000
<v Speaker 1>to know that stuff or not, but as I sit here, Wow,

0:07:29.080 --> 0:07:31.480
<v Speaker 1>he doesn't know that stuff. It was so it was

0:07:31.520 --> 0:07:33.920
<v Speaker 1>just effective and he was he's an investigative. He said,

0:07:33.960 --> 0:07:36.800
<v Speaker 1>you didn't do any investigation into her background. You're just

0:07:36.840 --> 0:07:40.320
<v Speaker 1>depending on what she tells you. That sounds to me ridiculous,

0:07:40.360 --> 0:07:42.480
<v Speaker 1>but also at the same time, it's true in this

0:07:42.560 --> 0:07:45.840
<v Speaker 1>industry that we've learned, right psychiatrists, they depend on what

0:07:45.920 --> 0:07:50.600
<v Speaker 1>that person is reporting. Okay, I don't think that's the

0:07:50.680 --> 0:07:54.120
<v Speaker 1>great way to go about it. But the point that's

0:07:54.160 --> 0:07:58.880
<v Speaker 1>coming across robes is not the point that the psychiatrists

0:07:59.040 --> 0:08:01.440
<v Speaker 1>did what they were supposed to do. I think Reddington's

0:08:01.480 --> 0:08:04.200
<v Speaker 1>actually pointing out flaws not just in these psychiatrists, but

0:08:04.360 --> 0:08:08.080
<v Speaker 1>in the industry in how we treat mental illness a

0:08:08.120 --> 0:08:10.320
<v Speaker 1>lot of ways, and that's working.

0:08:10.640 --> 0:08:13.080
<v Speaker 3>It absolutely is, and I believe that is where they

0:08:13.080 --> 0:08:15.840
<v Speaker 3>are going to start today because if you recall, the

0:08:15.960 --> 0:08:19.320
<v Speaker 3>judge basically interrupted this contentious back and forth during this

0:08:19.360 --> 0:08:25.040
<v Speaker 3>cross examination just as they were talking about the DSM

0:08:25.080 --> 0:08:27.240
<v Speaker 3>to what you're pointing about, that is the Diagnostic and

0:08:27.280 --> 0:08:32.920
<v Speaker 3>Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders. What Reddington Clancy's defense attorney

0:08:33.000 --> 0:08:36.240
<v Speaker 3>was pointing out with doctor Mack is that postpartum psychosis

0:08:36.320 --> 0:08:41.160
<v Speaker 3>isn't even listed as its own distinct diagnosis. It's like

0:08:41.200 --> 0:08:46.120
<v Speaker 3>a subcategory, barely mentioned. You've got thousands of pages. This

0:08:46.200 --> 0:08:50.280
<v Speaker 3>is the bible for psychiatrists, for forensic psychiatry, and they

0:08:50.320 --> 0:08:56.120
<v Speaker 3>don't even talk about in any length whatsoever postpartum psychosis.

0:08:56.120 --> 0:09:00.520
<v Speaker 3>So if it's not being taught, if it's not being studied,

0:09:00.840 --> 0:09:06.480
<v Speaker 3>if information on this rare disorder isn't readily known, how

0:09:06.520 --> 0:09:10.520
<v Speaker 3>could doctor Mack or frankly, any psychiatrist really be able

0:09:10.840 --> 0:09:16.440
<v Speaker 3>to treat, help and maybe even diagnose somebody with this

0:09:16.800 --> 0:09:18.719
<v Speaker 3>There isn't language on it.

0:09:19.679 --> 0:09:22.080
<v Speaker 1>That was pretty damning because that was a huge book.

0:09:22.600 --> 0:09:25.280
<v Speaker 1>I mean, he had the book in front of him

0:09:25.679 --> 0:09:28.120
<v Speaker 1>and was tossing around at times as he was looking

0:09:28.120 --> 0:09:30.839
<v Speaker 1>through it, pointing at it and patent and hitting it

0:09:30.920 --> 0:09:32.920
<v Speaker 1>and everything. But he ended up laying that thing robes

0:09:33.000 --> 0:09:35.760
<v Speaker 1>on the witness stand standing right there next to him. So, yeah,

0:09:35.960 --> 0:09:38.040
<v Speaker 1>show me in here where it says d da da da.

0:09:38.600 --> 0:09:41.360
<v Speaker 1>And it was awkward because the guy said, well, and

0:09:41.400 --> 0:09:43.920
<v Speaker 1>he's flipping through pages trying to find stuff, and oh,

0:09:43.920 --> 0:09:45.559
<v Speaker 1>here it is right here where he says dada da

0:09:45.600 --> 0:09:48.640
<v Speaker 1>and reading Hill Readington cuts him down. You're talking about

0:09:48.679 --> 0:09:51.280
<v Speaker 1>that paragraph. That's all. This little section in a thousand

0:09:51.360 --> 0:09:56.120
<v Speaker 1>page book is like six pair He the physical it

0:09:56.160 --> 0:09:59.640
<v Speaker 1>added to the tension, and the judge it seems like,

0:09:59.760 --> 0:10:03.040
<v Speaker 1>is giving Reddington a lot of rope, a.

0:10:03.000 --> 0:10:05.600
<v Speaker 2>Long leash to do whatever he wants.

0:10:05.640 --> 0:10:10.560
<v Speaker 3>And look, that was incredibly effective to recognize that this

0:10:10.800 --> 0:10:17.200
<v Speaker 3>is the entire psychiatric industry just doesn't give weight to

0:10:17.679 --> 0:10:20.840
<v Speaker 3>this disorder. And I think that was incredibly effective that

0:10:20.880 --> 0:10:23.640
<v Speaker 3>we that she not only didn't get the help she needed,

0:10:23.679 --> 0:10:26.439
<v Speaker 3>but is there even help out there for a woman

0:10:26.600 --> 0:10:29.880
<v Speaker 3>like her or other women like her out there? It

0:10:30.000 --> 0:10:34.240
<v Speaker 3>seems like it's massively inadequate, and just the studies have

0:10:34.440 --> 0:10:37.160
<v Speaker 3>not been done. So he's going to be back on

0:10:37.200 --> 0:10:40.520
<v Speaker 3>the stand, and I don't know if they're going to

0:10:40.520 --> 0:10:42.480
<v Speaker 3>continue to talk about the DSM, but I have a

0:10:42.520 --> 0:10:47.440
<v Speaker 3>feeling Reddington has a lot more to say to doctor Mac.

0:10:47.480 --> 0:10:50.960
<v Speaker 3>I wonder if Reddington goes back and watches his performance

0:10:51.000 --> 0:10:54.559
<v Speaker 3>and watches his cross examination, if he takes notes, and.

0:10:54.520 --> 0:10:56.760
<v Speaker 1>Then you don't have to preparing.

0:10:58.440 --> 0:11:01.960
<v Speaker 3>But once we have doctor Mac finishing up on the stand,

0:11:02.320 --> 0:11:04.920
<v Speaker 3>there is expected to be several more that was how

0:11:04.960 --> 0:11:08.840
<v Speaker 3>it was described, several more rebuttal witnesses. And look, this

0:11:08.920 --> 0:11:12.840
<v Speaker 3>is the moment where Clancy's defense attorneys are Defense attorney

0:11:12.920 --> 0:11:16.000
<v Speaker 3>Kevin readyten. He is the one and only singular defense attorney.

0:11:16.000 --> 0:11:20.160
<v Speaker 3>No one else has been questioning or cross examining anyone.

0:11:20.240 --> 0:11:22.360
<v Speaker 3>It's been all him, which has been remarkable. Watch.

0:11:22.679 --> 0:11:26.520
<v Speaker 1>We haven't even seen him consult with anybody in the courtroom.

0:11:26.559 --> 0:11:29.320
<v Speaker 1>He has been a one man show. Nobody has been

0:11:29.360 --> 0:11:32.080
<v Speaker 1>at that table. He's got no help, well at least

0:11:32.080 --> 0:11:32.640
<v Speaker 1>in the courtroom.

0:11:32.720 --> 0:11:33.680
<v Speaker 2>No, not at all.

0:11:33.720 --> 0:11:35.559
<v Speaker 3>And so yes, you would think this is going to

0:11:35.600 --> 0:11:39.000
<v Speaker 3>be very important for him to make sure he properly

0:11:39.040 --> 0:11:42.400
<v Speaker 3>cross examines anyone else. They bring up who again, this

0:11:42.520 --> 0:11:45.960
<v Speaker 3>is really a battle of the experts. Was Lindsey Clancy

0:11:47.280 --> 0:11:49.880
<v Speaker 3>in a state of psychosis or was she not? That

0:11:50.040 --> 0:11:52.320
<v Speaker 3>is literally going to determine the outcome of this trial,

0:11:52.360 --> 0:11:56.559
<v Speaker 3>and so exam questioning and then cross examining these expert

0:11:56.600 --> 0:11:59.640
<v Speaker 3>witnesses is going to mean everything when it comes to

0:11:59.720 --> 0:12:01.360
<v Speaker 3>verdict time and the jury.

0:12:01.640 --> 0:12:03.280
<v Speaker 2>I don't know, it's going to come down to who

0:12:03.280 --> 0:12:03.840
<v Speaker 2>they believe.

0:12:05.840 --> 0:12:10.960
<v Speaker 1>I thought the they cid the the expert that the

0:12:11.040 --> 0:12:14.360
<v Speaker 1>defense had up that was the last witness. When he flattered,

0:12:14.440 --> 0:12:17.560
<v Speaker 1>he just plainly said it. She was not criminally responsible.

0:12:18.559 --> 0:12:20.240
<v Speaker 1>You remember, they had so many zoom problems.

0:12:20.400 --> 0:12:22.600
<v Speaker 2>They did. They did, and he.

0:12:22.600 --> 0:12:26.640
<v Speaker 1>Was kind of a soft spoken, kind of a quieter guy. Yeah,

0:12:26.760 --> 0:12:29.280
<v Speaker 1>And I don't know if it should or if it would,

0:12:29.559 --> 0:12:34.520
<v Speaker 1>but his the impact of his testimony wasn't there because

0:12:34.559 --> 0:12:38.400
<v Speaker 1>he couldn't deliver his lines in a strong and a

0:12:38.440 --> 0:12:40.840
<v Speaker 1>loud voice. There was a delay and everything. So he

0:12:41.000 --> 0:12:43.360
<v Speaker 1>was saying and the information got out there, but it

0:12:43.400 --> 0:12:47.000
<v Speaker 1>wasn't an opportunity for them to see and face a

0:12:47.040 --> 0:12:49.520
<v Speaker 1>guy who was saying the most important thing for the defense.

0:12:49.720 --> 0:12:52.600
<v Speaker 3>I wonder if that's going to hurt them their final witness,

0:12:52.679 --> 0:12:56.439
<v Speaker 3>as you pointed out was a zoom witness with technical difficulties.

0:12:56.440 --> 0:12:58.600
<v Speaker 3>But what he said packed U punch and they'll get

0:12:58.600 --> 0:13:01.840
<v Speaker 3>a transcript. I believe they usually let the jurors go

0:13:01.920 --> 0:13:03.600
<v Speaker 3>back with a transcript. But some of the stuff he

0:13:03.760 --> 0:13:06.000
<v Speaker 3>said did stand out. He said that he said Lindsay

0:13:06.040 --> 0:13:09.120
<v Speaker 3>was crying daily about the loss of her three children.

0:13:09.160 --> 0:13:11.600
<v Speaker 3>That certainly flies in the face from what we've heard

0:13:11.600 --> 0:13:14.080
<v Speaker 3>from some of the prosecution witnesses who say she was

0:13:14.280 --> 0:13:17.560
<v Speaker 3>playing dominoes and watching TV and not.

0:13:17.440 --> 0:13:18.560
<v Speaker 2>Seeming upset at all.

0:13:19.040 --> 0:13:22.120
<v Speaker 3>But he did give his final diagnosis of her bipolar

0:13:22.200 --> 0:13:25.200
<v Speaker 3>two with severe depression, and he flat out set on

0:13:25.280 --> 0:13:29.080
<v Speaker 3>the day of the murders, she was psychotic and she

0:13:29.200 --> 0:13:30.880
<v Speaker 3>had postpartum psychosis.

0:13:30.880 --> 0:13:32.040
<v Speaker 2>He made it very very clear.

0:13:32.040 --> 0:13:34.000
<v Speaker 3>But when you have one doctor telling you one thing

0:13:34.400 --> 0:13:38.880
<v Speaker 3>and another doctor telling you the exact opposite thing, what

0:13:39.040 --> 0:13:41.720
<v Speaker 3>is the jury supposed to think about all of it

0:13:41.840 --> 0:13:45.160
<v Speaker 3>or any of it? That's confusing as hell. And speaking

0:13:45.200 --> 0:13:48.520
<v Speaker 3>to that confusion when we come back, this case is

0:13:48.679 --> 0:13:51.640
<v Speaker 3>literally dividing the country. There are the group who say

0:13:51.679 --> 0:13:54.960
<v Speaker 3>Lindsay Clancy was let down by the medical profession, she

0:13:55.120 --> 0:13:59.199
<v Speaker 3>needed help, and then there's the other side. Saying, okay, whatever,

0:13:59.520 --> 0:14:01.320
<v Speaker 3>her child deserve.

0:14:01.120 --> 0:14:02.640
<v Speaker 2>Justice and.

0:14:10.559 --> 0:14:13.920
<v Speaker 3>Welcome back everyone to Amy and TJ. As we continue

0:14:13.920 --> 0:14:16.720
<v Speaker 3>to watch what we believe will be the final week

0:14:16.840 --> 0:14:20.800
<v Speaker 3>in the Lindsay Clancy triple murder trial, it has reached

0:14:20.800 --> 0:14:24.720
<v Speaker 3>a fever pitch in terms of attention from the American public.

0:14:24.760 --> 0:14:25.640
<v Speaker 2>People are invested.

0:14:25.640 --> 0:14:27.800
<v Speaker 3>We're seeing this story now at the top of almost

0:14:27.880 --> 0:14:31.320
<v Speaker 3>every single major news network, and people are weighing in,

0:14:31.520 --> 0:14:34.200
<v Speaker 3>articles are being written, and really and truly, there are

0:14:34.360 --> 0:14:36.080
<v Speaker 3>just two sides that there's not a lot of middle

0:14:36.080 --> 0:14:39.640
<v Speaker 3>ground here. Either people think that Lindsay Clancy should be

0:14:40.280 --> 0:14:45.200
<v Speaker 3>shown empathy, should be given treatment, should spark more conversations

0:14:45.240 --> 0:14:47.760
<v Speaker 3>about women and mental health. And then there's the other

0:14:47.800 --> 0:14:49.800
<v Speaker 3>side that says, are you kidding me? If a man

0:14:49.880 --> 0:14:53.080
<v Speaker 3>did this, even if he had a mental disorder, he

0:14:53.120 --> 0:14:55.840
<v Speaker 3>would have zero support that this is sexism.

0:14:55.920 --> 0:14:58.360
<v Speaker 2>On the other side, oh, I haven't heard the sexte.

0:14:57.960 --> 0:15:01.680
<v Speaker 3>Oh absolutely, people are claiming that this is sexist because

0:15:01.680 --> 0:15:05.040
<v Speaker 3>if a man had a mental disorder and it was

0:15:05.080 --> 0:15:07.880
<v Speaker 3>claiming he was insane when he killed his kids, how

0:15:07.880 --> 0:15:10.560
<v Speaker 3>many people would be rallying to his defense and talking

0:15:10.560 --> 0:15:12.840
<v Speaker 3>about the need for more mental health studies For men.

0:15:12.760 --> 0:15:16.880
<v Speaker 1>Who's screaming sexism? Like, what group of people are upset

0:15:16.960 --> 0:15:18.600
<v Speaker 1>by that part of this?

0:15:18.760 --> 0:15:19.640
<v Speaker 2>Do you know what's interesting?

0:15:19.720 --> 0:15:25.440
<v Speaker 3>A lot of this division is along political lines, conservatives

0:15:25.560 --> 0:15:26.280
<v Speaker 3>versus liberals.

0:15:26.520 --> 0:15:28.200
<v Speaker 2>It's really really interesting.

0:15:28.240 --> 0:15:30.640
<v Speaker 3>And a lot of conservative women I've seen are writing

0:15:31.000 --> 0:15:37.240
<v Speaker 3>op eds in major news outlets saying that, yes, we

0:15:37.360 --> 0:15:39.520
<v Speaker 3>understand that she might have been suffering a bit, but

0:15:39.560 --> 0:15:44.600
<v Speaker 3>that does not erase or make it okay that they're

0:15:44.680 --> 0:15:47.280
<v Speaker 3>upset that more people are concerned for Lindsay Clancy than

0:15:47.400 --> 0:15:50.760
<v Speaker 3>outraged about her killing her children, and they're confused by that.

0:15:50.840 --> 0:15:53.480
<v Speaker 3>People are saying, I'm a mom of four, I had

0:15:54.080 --> 0:15:56.320
<v Speaker 3>certain issues, but I didn't kill my kids.

0:15:56.560 --> 0:15:59.240
<v Speaker 2>Let's call this for what it is. So it is.

0:15:59.400 --> 0:16:02.520
<v Speaker 3>Really it's getting ugly out there, it's getting nasty out there,

0:16:02.800 --> 0:16:06.320
<v Speaker 3>and they're perplexed by why Lindsay Clancy has so much support.

0:16:06.760 --> 0:16:08.520
<v Speaker 3>And some of the folks who are supporting her are

0:16:08.520 --> 0:16:11.280
<v Speaker 3>saying that could have been me telling their stories about

0:16:11.280 --> 0:16:15.120
<v Speaker 3>how dangerously close they came to harming their children or themselves,

0:16:15.320 --> 0:16:17.640
<v Speaker 3>and they want more mental health support for moms. But

0:16:18.000 --> 0:16:21.000
<v Speaker 3>it's so sad that even something like this, you got

0:16:21.000 --> 0:16:24.160
<v Speaker 3>moms fighting each other now about whether or not we

0:16:24.200 --> 0:16:29.200
<v Speaker 3>should have sympathy or empathy for Lindsey Clancy and why

0:16:29.240 --> 0:16:33.320
<v Speaker 3>we aren't more upset or outraged about the deaths of

0:16:33.360 --> 0:16:34.120
<v Speaker 3>these three kids.

0:16:34.160 --> 0:16:38.360
<v Speaker 1>We are. We're saddened, exactly. We are saddened, and there

0:16:38.480 --> 0:16:43.320
<v Speaker 1>is some outrage, But what percentage of it needs to

0:16:43.360 --> 0:16:46.360
<v Speaker 1>go directly to the woman in the wheelchair? And that's

0:16:46.400 --> 0:16:49.960
<v Speaker 1>okay to talk about that. I don't think it's okay

0:16:50.080 --> 0:16:54.720
<v Speaker 1>to just see video of women in pink outside the

0:16:54.760 --> 0:16:58.400
<v Speaker 1>courtroom supporting her and immediately respond when you haven't watched

0:16:58.400 --> 0:17:00.960
<v Speaker 1>a single damn day of testify such a good point.

0:17:01.000 --> 0:17:03.920
<v Speaker 1>You haven't read up on the case beyond a couple

0:17:03.920 --> 0:17:05.960
<v Speaker 1>of headlines or a couple of other people who are

0:17:06.000 --> 0:17:09.320
<v Speaker 1>posting on TikTok. That's all, Robes. We are just not

0:17:09.440 --> 0:17:13.640
<v Speaker 1>in a society anymore that stops and looks for any context,

0:17:13.680 --> 0:17:17.840
<v Speaker 1>any meaning, or any explanation. We just react. We just react,

0:17:17.880 --> 0:17:20.840
<v Speaker 1>and that's I get it. My reaction to three babies

0:17:20.880 --> 0:17:26.960
<v Speaker 1>being strangled is sadness and outrage. Where do I direct it?

0:17:27.359 --> 0:17:30.440
<v Speaker 1>I'll ask what you always say, Robes, before you react

0:17:30.480 --> 0:17:37.879
<v Speaker 1>to something emotionally, get curious first. Is my outrage? And anger.

0:17:39.480 --> 0:17:41.480
<v Speaker 1>Is it all in the right place if I directed

0:17:41.520 --> 0:17:46.680
<v Speaker 1>at her and from everything Robes I have seen and heard, No,

0:17:46.960 --> 0:17:48.160
<v Speaker 1>there's more to this story.

0:17:48.320 --> 0:17:51.840
<v Speaker 3>I agree, And we have watched the trial, I would

0:17:51.920 --> 0:17:55.520
<v Speaker 3>argue more than pretty much everyone who's commenting. Some people

0:17:55.640 --> 0:17:58.640
<v Speaker 3>might be riveted and watching every moment, but because this is.

0:17:58.640 --> 0:18:02.040
<v Speaker 2>Our job, we actually get to do it can do it.

0:18:02.400 --> 0:18:05.480
<v Speaker 3>And I doubt most people have enough hours in the

0:18:05.600 --> 0:18:08.360
<v Speaker 3>day to watch what we've seen. And I just think

0:18:08.400 --> 0:18:10.840
<v Speaker 3>that there needs to be a pause in pointing the

0:18:10.880 --> 0:18:15.080
<v Speaker 3>finger until you actually have watched the whole process take place.

0:18:15.400 --> 0:18:17.399
<v Speaker 3>And it'll be interesting to see what the jurors say.

0:18:17.440 --> 0:18:19.879
<v Speaker 3>And I don't know, like we get it wrong all

0:18:19.880 --> 0:18:22.440
<v Speaker 3>the time. If I'm a juror, I'm imagining what that

0:18:22.480 --> 0:18:24.840
<v Speaker 3>would be like, and sometimes they come to different conclusions.

0:18:25.000 --> 0:18:27.399
<v Speaker 1>We've never gotten it right. Sorry, every time we do

0:18:27.440 --> 0:18:29.119
<v Speaker 1>that we know exactly what the jury's going to do.

0:18:29.160 --> 0:18:30.840
<v Speaker 1>We eat our jaws on the floor.

0:18:30.960 --> 0:18:33.600
<v Speaker 3>I mean, even the attorneys themselves have no idea what

0:18:33.640 --> 0:18:35.880
<v Speaker 3>a jury is going to do. And that's actually fair. Now,

0:18:36.040 --> 0:18:39.760
<v Speaker 3>NPR put out this was interesting. Postpartum depression affects ten

0:18:39.800 --> 0:18:44.159
<v Speaker 3>percent of mothers postpartum psychosis. They say estimates estimated effects

0:18:44.240 --> 0:18:46.760
<v Speaker 3>one to two out of every one thousand berths. But

0:18:46.800 --> 0:18:48.720
<v Speaker 3>the big thing about this, and this is what part

0:18:48.760 --> 0:18:51.640
<v Speaker 3>of what this trial is pointing out. We don't train

0:18:51.760 --> 0:18:56.880
<v Speaker 3>our doctors. Clearly, we just saw this play out on Friday.

0:18:56.920 --> 0:18:58.320
<v Speaker 2>It's massively missed.

0:18:58.359 --> 0:19:01.040
<v Speaker 3>A mount sign I psychiatrist said numbers ten percent of

0:19:01.080 --> 0:19:03.520
<v Speaker 3>moms with postpartum depression, one to two out of every

0:19:03.600 --> 0:19:07.840
<v Speaker 3>thousand berths with postpartum psychosis. They said, we don't know,

0:19:08.320 --> 0:19:12.280
<v Speaker 3>we have no idea how many women have actually suffered

0:19:12.280 --> 0:19:15.879
<v Speaker 3>from either of these disorders because it's missed because we

0:19:15.920 --> 0:19:18.520
<v Speaker 3>don't have training on it. And this is a psychiatrist

0:19:18.520 --> 0:19:23.880
<v Speaker 3>who says, it's just describing how little, almost no training

0:19:24.119 --> 0:19:26.639
<v Speaker 3>goes into this and these disorders.

0:19:26.680 --> 0:19:28.760
<v Speaker 1>I was surprised. I was going to follow up and

0:19:28.920 --> 0:19:31.760
<v Speaker 1>you've answered it there, But ten percent sounded loaded me.

0:19:32.000 --> 0:19:35.480
<v Speaker 3>And that's exactly that's the only official number we have,

0:19:35.960 --> 0:19:38.720
<v Speaker 3>and it's just not correct. But that's the only one

0:19:38.720 --> 0:19:42.320
<v Speaker 3>to even point to because it's the only one that's

0:19:42.320 --> 0:19:44.639
<v Speaker 3>ever been made. And I think, look, and some of

0:19:44.680 --> 0:19:46.680
<v Speaker 3>these articles I was listening, I'm curious what you think.

0:19:47.080 --> 0:19:53.800
<v Speaker 3>They're upset that the conversation has turned to this idea

0:19:54.040 --> 0:19:58.280
<v Speaker 3>of not that anyone's happy that three children died, but

0:19:58.320 --> 0:20:02.000
<v Speaker 3>that we're focused more on trying to point out the

0:20:02.520 --> 0:20:05.639
<v Speaker 3>ineptness or the inadequacies in our healthcare system for women,

0:20:05.800 --> 0:20:09.520
<v Speaker 3>rather than pushing for justice for these kids that we

0:20:09.560 --> 0:20:11.760
<v Speaker 3>have our focus is in the wrong place. That we

0:20:11.800 --> 0:20:15.439
<v Speaker 3>should be focused on justice and not focused on looking

0:20:15.480 --> 0:20:18.040
<v Speaker 3>at an entire industry, And I just disagree. I think

0:20:18.080 --> 0:20:20.600
<v Speaker 3>both can can happen and occur in the same place,

0:20:20.840 --> 0:20:22.840
<v Speaker 3>and there it's important for both of them to be

0:20:22.920 --> 0:20:26.200
<v Speaker 3>considered and talked about. It's so interesting have people get

0:20:26.240 --> 0:20:27.120
<v Speaker 3>so upset, but.

0:20:27.240 --> 0:20:31.000
<v Speaker 1>We ever consider for a second that justice for these

0:20:31.080 --> 0:20:36.720
<v Speaker 1>kids is revamping the industry. Justice for these kids is

0:20:36.880 --> 0:20:40.920
<v Speaker 1>actually examining why they're dead. They're dead at the hands

0:20:40.920 --> 0:20:44.120
<v Speaker 1>of their mother. There's still another why what was the result?

0:20:44.640 --> 0:20:48.439
<v Speaker 1>Something got her to this place? An I from everything

0:20:48.480 --> 0:20:51.719
<v Speaker 1>I've seen, Robes am not just. I have seen no

0:20:51.920 --> 0:20:58.320
<v Speaker 1>evidence that this woman was so overwhelmed by motherhood that

0:20:58.400 --> 0:21:00.760
<v Speaker 1>she put a plan into place to get rid of

0:21:00.800 --> 0:21:03.960
<v Speaker 1>the kids. I just I haven't seen that. I know

0:21:03.960 --> 0:21:06.879
<v Speaker 1>they're trying to make it, but babe, that's it's just

0:21:06.920 --> 0:21:09.880
<v Speaker 1>not there, So yes, justice for these kids roes wet

0:21:09.920 --> 0:21:13.399
<v Speaker 1>ten percent. How many mothers out there have scared the

0:21:13.520 --> 0:21:16.960
<v Speaker 1>but Jesus out of themselves by having some crazy, psychotical

0:21:17.000 --> 0:21:19.719
<v Speaker 1>whatever thought and scared to share it with somebody because

0:21:19.840 --> 0:21:22.520
<v Speaker 1>of what you're going to think about her as a mother, Babe.

0:21:22.560 --> 0:21:25.600
<v Speaker 3>I think almost every mother, if she's honest with herself,

0:21:25.600 --> 0:21:28.000
<v Speaker 3>in some of those weeks and months after giving birth,

0:21:29.119 --> 0:21:32.320
<v Speaker 3>your kid won't stop screaming, your kid won't won't breastfeed,

0:21:32.440 --> 0:21:33.399
<v Speaker 3>or won't take the bottle.

0:21:33.760 --> 0:21:37.880
<v Speaker 2>There are dark thoughts that enter your mind. Period.

0:21:38.000 --> 0:21:40.639
<v Speaker 3>I just think that no one wants to admit that.

0:21:40.680 --> 0:21:43.760
<v Speaker 3>No one, no one wants to say that they too

0:21:44.320 --> 0:21:46.000
<v Speaker 3>have felt that. It doesn't mean they were ever going

0:21:46.080 --> 0:21:47.679
<v Speaker 3>to do it. It doesn't mean they were ever going

0:21:47.720 --> 0:21:50.720
<v Speaker 3>to follow through with it. But by just pretending that

0:21:51.400 --> 0:21:55.280
<v Speaker 3>this isn't an issue and acting as if we're getting

0:21:55.359 --> 0:21:59.600
<v Speaker 3>distracted by this issue and not focused on justice, I

0:21:59.640 --> 0:22:03.359
<v Speaker 3>love you just said, because justice for these kids would

0:22:03.400 --> 0:22:08.120
<v Speaker 3>actually also be knowing more about this disorder in order

0:22:08.160 --> 0:22:11.679
<v Speaker 3>to prevent it from happening again, period, point blank.

0:22:11.960 --> 0:22:14.600
<v Speaker 1>And look I get it. I just sweek we want

0:22:14.600 --> 0:22:16.560
<v Speaker 1>to direct it. We want to be simple right things

0:22:16.800 --> 0:22:19.760
<v Speaker 1>we did this country, black and white, this or that.

0:22:19.920 --> 0:22:23.600
<v Speaker 1>You're either on this side or that side. Okay, but

0:22:24.520 --> 0:22:28.160
<v Speaker 1>this is but yeah, I would be your guest this morning.

0:22:28.160 --> 0:22:29.080
<v Speaker 1>They're going to start on time.

0:22:29.760 --> 0:22:32.399
<v Speaker 3>They never have. They're supposed to start at nine am

0:22:32.400 --> 0:22:34.680
<v Speaker 3>every morning. Usually we don't even start to hear testimony

0:22:34.720 --> 0:22:35.880
<v Speaker 3>until abound nine forty five.

0:22:35.880 --> 0:22:36.840
<v Speaker 2>There's always a sidebar.

0:22:36.920 --> 0:22:38.679
<v Speaker 3>There's going to be always something that has to be

0:22:38.760 --> 0:22:40.840
<v Speaker 3>done or talked about ahead of time, and then plenty

0:22:40.880 --> 0:22:42.920
<v Speaker 3>of sidebars in the middle of it. So look, we

0:22:42.960 --> 0:22:46.760
<v Speaker 3>say we hope to get to closing arguments by as

0:22:46.760 --> 0:22:49.440
<v Speaker 3>soon as tomorrow, but who We don't know how many

0:22:49.480 --> 0:22:52.560
<v Speaker 3>more rebuttal witnesses are going to be put up by

0:22:52.600 --> 0:22:55.520
<v Speaker 3>the prosecution, and certainly we know that Kevin Reddington is

0:22:55.520 --> 0:22:59.200
<v Speaker 3>almost certainly ready for cross examination on all of them.

0:22:59.280 --> 0:23:01.760
<v Speaker 3>So it should be a very eventful day once again

0:23:01.920 --> 0:23:05.640
<v Speaker 3>in court today. As testimony continues, we will be following

0:23:05.640 --> 0:23:06.040
<v Speaker 3>it for you.

0:23:06.280 --> 0:23:08.400
<v Speaker 2>We always appreciate you listening to us. I may need

0:23:08.440 --> 0:23:09.560
<v Speaker 2>Roebuck alongside TJ.

0:23:09.600 --> 0:23:09.959
<v Speaker 3>Holmes.

0:23:10.160 --> 0:23:10.760
<v Speaker 2>We'll talk soon.
