Lindsay Clancy Trial: Final Expert Attacks the "Voice" at the Center of Her Insanity Defense
Published: August 25, 2026
Duration: 23:51
The Lindsay Clancy trial entered Day 20 with prosecutors continuing their rebuttal of the defense's postpartum psychosis claim.
Dr. Kirk Heilbrun maintained that Clancy was seriously mentally ill but still understood that killing her children was wrong and remained criminally responsible. Defense attorney Kevin Reddington aggressively challenged his qualifications, methodology, and roughly $54,000 in fees.
Prosecutors then called forensic psychiatrist Dr. Gregory Saathoff, who questioned Clancy's claim that a male voice suddenly appeared during the killings, repeatedly ordered her to kill her children, and then disappeared afterward.
Saathoff will return Wednesday to finish his testimony...
