After watching the trial, my entire view on the Lindsay Clancy case completely shifted. What initially looked like a case with some holes that question her post partum psycosis defense. Now feels like a devastating failure of postpartum care, mental health treatment, and the justice system.

I no longer believe this is a case of premeditated first-degree murder. The courtroom footage, medical testimony, and autopsy evidence point me somewhere else entirely. In episode 21, I continue the conversation on maternal malice- moms who murder.

Highlighting the exact details that changed my mind in the case of Lindsay Clancy: the prosecution's use of autopsy images, Lindsay's visible anguish in court, the role of postpartum psychosis, her medical care, and the online conspiracy theories surrounding Patrick Clancy.
