Lindsay Clancy’s Prosecution Expert Said She Killed Out Of THIS
The prosecution called forensic psychologist Kirk Heilbrun to prove Lindsay Clancy was criminally responsible for killing her three children. He told the jury she committed a serious suicide attempt accompanied by killing the children out of love.
Heilbrun said Clancy retained moral awareness of what she was doing. But his own characterization — love as the motive, not cruelty — landed squarely in the defense’s territory. A second prosecution expert, Gregory Saathoff, agreed on the stand that the prosecution’s opening statement minimized what Clancy was going through.
Retired FBI Special Agent Jennifer Coffindaffer joins Tony Brueski as the jury deliberates in Plymouth Superior Court. They disagree on this case and dig into how the prosecution’s closing argument landed — and whether it survived its own witnesses.
Sprague argued Clancy made a rational choice to end her life and removed her children because they were the protective factor keeping her alive. She told the jury Clancy left the children on the basement floor with exercise bands still around their necks and went upstairs to finish her plan.
Nine women and three men are deliberating. Five verdict options sit on those slips.
