CLANCY CASE UNPEELED: Is Lindsay Insane, Involuntarily Intoxicated, or Insidious?
<p>Have we learned nothing since the Andrea Yates case twenty-five years ago? Lindsay's Fact vs. Fiction UNPEELED in the special edition. Lindsay Clancy is charged with the murder of her three children: Cora (5), Dawson (3), and Callum (8 months) in January of 2024. In this raw and vulnerable conversation between criminologist and sociologist, Dr. Casey Jordan and Dr. Colleen Butler-Sweet break down the facts of the case, comparing it to the watershed case of Texas v. Yates in the early 2000s. A resounding theme evolves as we study the eerie similarities between the two cases in terms of Lindsay Clancy's and Andrea Yates' killing of their children after a well-documented history of post-partum depression and psychosis, bi-polar, anxiety, weight loss, and heavy prescriptions of mood-alterating drugs. Andrea Yates was eventually found not guilty by reason of insanity.Given society's approach to modern motherhood in the age of social media, the hosts wonder: Is the Clancy prosecution a political and personal vendetta to hold Lindsay responsible for the deaths of her children even in the face of extensive evidence supporting "not criminally responsible?" Could a loving mother with ZERO history of psychopathy or sociopathy hatch a three-month plan to kill her children... because she's just tired of being a mother? With no other motive? Join the hosts for a rundown of the law of the insanity defense, the realities of post-partum psychosis, and the history of similar cases, to determine where YOU stand before the jury comes back with its verdict! 🔔 Subscribe for More True Crime This episode is made possible by @askventuralawyoutube | The Accident Law Firm__________________________________Listen on your audio platforms :Spotify: https://open.spotify.com/show/6mljKhf...Apple Podcast: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast...Amazon Music: https://music.amazon.com/podcasts/da2...Patreon : https://patreon.com/CriminalAppeal?ut...Follow along on social :Instagram: / criminalappealpodcast Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/profile.php?...Tik Tok: / criminalappealpodcast Website : www.criminalappealpodcast.comFind your hosts:Dr. Casey Jordan : / drcaseyjordan Dr. Colleen Butler-Sweet : / colleenbutlersweet_phd #TrueCrime #lindsayclancy #clancy #westernconnecticutstateuniversity #CriminalAppeal #crimepodcast Criminal Appeal is sponsored by Ventura Law, The Accident Law Firm.
