Psychiatrist Reveals ALARMING Signs in Lindsay Clancy’s Medical Records | Trial Day 15
Aug 19, 20262h 39m
Lauren Matthias breaks down a dramatic Day 15 of the Lindsay Clancy trial as the defense calls psychiatrist Dr. Donald Condi to examine Lindsay’s mental health treatment, escalating symptoms and extensive medication history before the deaths of Cora, Dawson and Callan. Condi testified about severe insomnia, depression, dissociation, feeling detached from reality, possible medication “activation,” and symptoms he said could be associated with postpartum depression or postpartum psychosis, while prosecutors challenged his conclusions and emphasized that Lindsay’s only documented report of hearing a voice came on January 24, 2023—the day the children died. Jurors also heard emotional testimony from Lindsay’s mother-in-law, who said Lindsay was “begging for help,” and a forensic pathologist faced a heated cross-examination over Lindsay’s injuries and the strangulation of the children. Lauren breaks down the biggest testimony, evidence and courtroom moments from Day 15 of the Lindsay Clancy murder trial.

Inside Lindsay Clancy’s Phone: What She Searched & Texted Before the Killings | Trial Day 13
Aug 14, 20261h 28m
**This episode was recorded LIVE with minimal editing. Day 13 of the Lindsay Clancy trial brought jurors deep inside the digital evidence, including a shocking “Suicide Methods” webpage found in data extracted from a computer seized from the Clancy home—but the forensic examiner could not say who was actually using the computer when the page was accessed. Jurors also saw evidence recovered from Lindsay Clancy’s iPhone, including her searches about medications, bipolar disorder, psychosis and mental health, private texts with Patrick and her mother, family photographs and her phone activity in the hours before Cora, Dawson and Callan were attacked. Lauren Matthias breaks down the prosecution’s digital evidence, the defense’s challenges to what it actually proves, and new testimony from the lead investigator about the Clancy home, medications and the investigation into the deaths of the three Clancy children.

Lindsay Clancy WAILS in Court as Autopsy Details Emerge - Judge Pauses Trial | Day 12
Aug 13, 20262h 6m
Lauren Matthias is here to break down Day 12 of the Lindsay Clancy trial which came to an emotional halt as the medical examiner detailed the autopsies of Cora and Dawson Clancy and jurors were shown photographs documenting their injuries. Lindsay began wailing in the courtroom, becoming so distraught that the judge called a break. The day also brought stunning testimony from a Massachusetts State Police trooper about investigators discussing whether Lindsay’s psychiatrist could have influenced her later claim that she heard a voice, while her former mental health counselor testified about Lindsay’s repeated pleas for help, intrusive suicidal thoughts and efforts to access higher levels of psychiatric care. Lauren Matthias breaks down the autopsy testimony, the evidence presented to jurors and the biggest moments from an extraordinarily emotional Day 12 of the Lindsay Clancy murder trial.
