Lindsay Clancy's $54,000 Expert Said This After the Beast Question
About this episode
Kirk Heilbrun told twelve jurors that Lindsay Clancy is still grieving her children. That she spent months trying to get help. That she is not self-centered. That she used the words "I have lost everything, and I don't want to be here." He said he would not consider her a beast.
Then he told those same twelve people that she's criminally responsible for killing Cora, Dawson, and Callan — and that her moral awareness was "influenced" by suicidal despair but never extinguished. He was paid $54,000 by the Commonwealth to reach that conclusion. His last encounter with a postpartum psychosis patient was forty-four years ago. Reddington attacked his credentials, his compensation, and his lack of published work on postpartum conditions.
The prosecution's final witness, FBI psychiatrist Gregory Saathoff, took a different approach — comparing Clancy's accounts across multiple interviews and finding discrepancies the defense will have to answer in closing. Clancy gave different timelines for when the voice started, and a detail about what the children were doing in the kitchen doesn't match the crime scene evidence. Closings expected Thursday.
