I am live watching the Lindsay Clancy case - a few hard things are going on in my life and this is quite possibly an escape. It’s also my natural advocacy nature to watch and learn and advocate.
EDIT: as I finished writing this…
Case update: judge declared a mistrial cos one juror isn’t playing by the rules. Not an opinion- it was stated that he (yes he) was not following the rules of reasonable doubt. Redd won to appeal to a higher court and was given AN HOUR!!
I have actually watched a lot of the trial and — I actually think she is not guilty. The problem with this trial is that the request to bifurcate the trial was rejected. What that means is “bi” being two - break it into two.
Reddington wanted Lyndsey to be able to tried for the crime, and sentenced for the crime, separately. They are sentencing her without allowing her to actually plead not guilty to the crime.
Because Patrick said she did it on site. She has not actually plead guilty. The decision of the DA (I believe, is responsible for what can be tried. Not sure if that’s the DA who bought the house, Patrick’s friend, apparently so…)
Anything she has said was based on what was said to her. And what Patrick said.
I am saying this literally based on watching the trial. Multiple professionals have said, when asked questions about Lindsey, she stated things like, “I interviewed Patrick and he said…” this happened over and over again. I was watching in sheer disbelief because that is heresay.
Right now we’re at the point it has been advised that a juror is not following the law around following advice about reasonable doubt.
The issue with it not being bifurcated is that she actually has not been found guilty. This trial assumes she is guilty.
If you watch the trial you will see that she has not admitted it. People saying she said she would hurt her kids… multiple witnesses say similar to “she said this - or this” being “she said she was scared of hurting the kids, or she was scared of them being hurt.”
Which is it?
If she said she was scared of them being hurt, and pair that with she asked her husband to sleep in the basement and he did once, then she did. And there is proof of him interacting with his new wife repeatedly before the kids were killed, and Lyndsey says she saw herself doing it and Patrick’s new wife is Lyndsey 2.0… and there are so many discrepancies. I have them all. Well, we have reasonable doubt, but the trial is not to assess her guilt it’s to assess her sentence, assuming her guilt.
So yeah… I’m staying up for a hot minute to see what’s happening.
May the truth come out. I stand with Lindsay. In any version of what happened, it was effed up.
And he needs to be investigated. Properly. Apparently he was done with within 24 hours. How…?
A woman is nearly dead. 2 out of 3 of her kids are dead. Cops rock up and the man says she did it? And we’re done?
No bother that he was off doing all kinds of activities while she was struggling, from skiing to hiking in the month after… who does that?
I think we need to be open minded and aware and fight for what’s right. We need to talk about things that are hard. And stop keeping secrets and covering for people. He seems to be being covered for.
The latter is pretty personal to me right now. The dark needs a light shone on it. So we can make changes in the world. For real.
This guy (linked below) is doing a great job covering the case. I wish I had the capacity to pull together the footage how I see it. But impartial is good. So here is that. I’ll post an analysis of a theory of how she was framed in the comments. Because this case is no where near over.
“”The lawyer you know” breaks it down on his channel daily.
I also had a fun memory shared today by my sister. I am pretty obsessed with justices and cases. My grandma on my mums side used to visit courts to watch. Fun we had that in common. That may become a hobby…
And I might be escaping a bit. But I’d do this anyway. Pretty good relief right now given the death of a family member I am navigating and all it has brought up. Secrets are not how I play ball - it’s a long standing family strategy and is embedded in how many people prefer to operate. Keep the peace… eff the damn kids.
The issue is, we do this in families, then it extends to communities, and countries, then the world. What happens within happens externally. And expands.
Thus we have issues like Epstein. We need to do our families stuff better to make the world better.
So cases like this matter to me. Stop lying and stop keeping secrets. Start talking truth and maybe we can protect children.
With over 10,000 kids abused in Australia each year - and the biggest cost, most importantly on their lives - our lives - and then the system (taxpayers). I’ll share a video soon breaking this down, we need to change things. And it does start with the individual.
