00:00:00.000 Why wouldn't her fingerprints be on the knife that she used 0.64
00:00:02.940 to cut her neck and her wrist before she jumped out the window? 0.99
00:00:05.960 People find ways around things. 1.00
00:00:07.200 Why would she do that?
00:00:08.520 Because she didn't want to get caught. 0.60
00:00:12.300 Okay, so you're saying that she strangled her three children, 0.96
00:00:16.520 she crushed up pills, mixed them with lemonade, 0.99
00:00:19.940 took them, slit her wrist, slit her throat, 0.95
00:00:23.500 wiped the blade off, took her watch off, 0.99
00:00:26.860 then it would make sense to wipe a murder it would make sense to wipe if you're gonna kill
00:00:32.000 yourself why would you do that she literally said that if she really wanted to kill herself
00:00:36.220 why didn't she get a gun yeah so none of these details are really that big to me okay the blood
00:00:41.020 splatter the something about testing the medication you're just not giving me anything
00:00:46.440 okay so that that really negates that's more that's the way i'm gonna finish and then you
00:00:50.960 can go okay that's more impactful than that she admitted i believe that lindsey clancy should be
00:00:56.840 convicted of murder you want to know why yep i would love to know because she admitted i knew
00:01:01.140 you're gonna say i'm gonna say i know i want to know you have more than three words to say to me
00:01:05.920 nothing it's really that simple she admitted it do you think there was a proper investigation done
00:01:10.060 i think that the only investigation i need is that she admitted it yeah do you think that her
00:01:16.600 admission could be inadmissible due to thank you due to the way it was nope you don't think that
00:01:22.920 when she woke up she first of all she wasn't she was handcuffed to the hospital bed this entire
00:01:29.000 time this is the first she hadn't even said a word yet uh-huh when she was handcuffed and and then
00:01:34.680 she woke up and said what that she didn't remember what happened that she did it that she didn't
00:01:40.360 remember did she admit it after she was told listen did she admit to it she was told she's
00:01:48.200 on drugs uh-huh heavily medicated woke up didn't remember listen if anything if anything drugs are
00:01:54.040 true you know what i mean she didn't remember what happened she was told what was happened
00:02:00.920 a professional testified in court that in that kind of a situation where you wake up heavily
00:02:06.840 medicated don't remember what happened and are told what you did it heavily affects your
00:02:11.920 recollection and can cause false false memories okay so could that be inadmissible no because
00:02:19.820 she admitted it oh here we go yeah no i really think again and the other thing too it like
00:02:26.220 that she hasn't said that she didn't do it this entire time she pled not guilty
00:02:31.660 no by reason of no she pled not guilty but she still admitted that she did it
00:02:36.840 While she was heavily medicated.
00:02:38.460 That's not what the, that's not what, yeah, but that's not what the defense is saying.
00:02:41.860 It is though.
00:02:42.420 No, it's not.
00:02:43.120 They're going at that angle.
00:02:45.120 No, they're not.
00:02:45.560 But the options for the verdict are not guilty.
00:02:48.060 Right.
00:02:48.280 It's an option for the verdict, but it's not what they're arguing.
00:02:50.920 They're arguing at that angle because that's the only angle I have.
00:02:53.880 Imagine they tried the other angle, they would fail. 0.99
00:02:55.820 Because they didn't do enough fucking evidence. 0.99
00:02:58.880 They don't have enough evidence. 1.00
00:02:59.740 They didn't do enough of a investigation.
00:03:03.860 Because she admitted it.
00:03:04.860 You can't say, bro.
00:03:06.840 Here we go again.
00:03:07.640 The only three words she has. 0.96
00:03:09.220 There's two fact checks here.
00:03:10.740 So supported Lindsay Clancy has not denied causing the death of her children, even though she pleaded not guilty.
00:03:15.980 Current reporting says she does not dispute killing her children, but is pursuing a lack of criminal responsibility, insanity style defense.
00:03:23.660 So the idea that she has not said that she did as broadly as she didn't do it is broadly accurate.
00:03:30.020 But that is different from a confession or admission of criminal guilt.
00:03:32.720 So she is not saying that she didn't do it, but she's not saying that she did do it.
00:03:37.800 I would still say that I believe she did it because she admitted it.
00:03:41.880 And that's all I need.
00:03:43.640 Okay.
00:03:44.760 This is what we're going to do again?
00:03:46.480 I mean, we did this for like hours yesterday.
00:03:48.280 Yeah, because I think that people bring in other stuff
00:03:52.240 because they're trying to confuse you, but it's really cut and dry.
00:03:55.080 It's really not cut and dry.
00:03:56.140 Okay, say it.
00:03:56.720 To you.
00:03:57.160 Look, listen.
00:03:57.660 To you.
00:03:58.020 To me, it's cut and dry.
00:03:59.360 How is it cut and dry?
00:04:00.640 If you're a police officer and you show up to a scene with three dead children,
00:04:04.660 a mother
00:04:05.960 who is severely injured
00:04:07.280 and can't talk
00:04:08.320 and a father
00:04:09.240 unscathed
00:04:10.380 tells you exactly
00:04:11.380 what happened
00:04:11.920 and okay
00:04:12.400 that's what happened
00:04:13.100 and then when she
00:04:13.800 could talk
00:04:14.360 she was already 1.00
00:04:14.880 handcuffed
00:04:15.300 when she could talk
00:04:15.480 she was already
00:04:16.220 handcuffed
00:04:16.600 when she could talk
00:04:17.280 he was free 0.59
00:04:18.180 when she could talk
00:04:18.980 she was already
00:04:19.120 handcuffed
00:04:19.440 when she could talk
00:04:20.260 she didn't know
00:04:21.180 what happened
00:04:21.500 when she could talk
00:04:22.320 when she couldn't talk
00:04:23.200 when she could talk
00:04:23.920 she did what
00:04:24.600 she didn't know
00:04:25.380 what happened
00:04:25.820 when she could talk
00:04:26.920 we can do it together
00:04:28.220 when she could talk
00:04:29.640 when she could talk
00:04:30.680 she was told what happened
00:04:31.260 when she could talk
00:04:32.460 she
00:04:32.760 is the theory that 0.92
00:04:33.700 wait I didn't get to
00:04:34.500 I don't think I don't think she did it. But who did it? I don't know. There wasn't a proper investigation done.
00:04:42.620 OK, because I can't say she didn't. I can't say he didn't do it.
00:04:46.360 Because and according to tell me why there was tell me why there wasn't a proper investigation.
00:04:50.220 It's only one of the substance was tested. It's only not an improper investigation, according to you, random woman, not subject matter expert.
00:04:59.300 right um and then also and also too because she admitted it so and that's enough for me i think
00:05:05.720 it's enough for most sane people we don't need to do a whole deep dive i think she admitted it 0.91
00:05:10.760 um i think postpartum depression is not an excuse i don't give a shit about that yeah she should 0.99
00:05:15.800 still get life i actually think she should be executed we agree on the fact that if she did it 0.95
00:05:21.360 and it was uh due to whatever postpartum that she should still suffer the consequences we agree on 1.00
00:05:26.640 that correct but i don't think that there was a proper investigation done to prove that she what
00:05:31.460 do you what do you think was improper go ahead well first of all they didn't test the medication
00:05:35.400 that patrick said was crushed up medication how did he know it didn't all right didn't test
00:05:41.780 medication no okay that's one i want i want to write down so we're going through okay they didn't
00:05:46.600 test the medication no they just believed what patrick said okay first of all he he shows up to
00:05:52.360 he testified okay he comes up to the house he said we're in this this is like a 10 to 20 second clip
00:05:57.800 of his testimony saying hey i pulled into the driveway i parked next to her car i went in the
00:06:03.880 house i didn't know if she was home or not because i didn't see her car so i called her so you say
00:06:09.000 you parked next to her car and then you say you didn't see her car that's why you called her to
00:06:13.240 see if where she was because you okay so something about a parked car no don't it's just not enough
00:06:17.880 for me don't do this don't know i mean this just this is like for don't do what i'm listening to
00:06:22.440 what you're saying it is so and uh she admitted it that's what it is because it doesn't i need
00:06:28.120 i need something i i i need something that's better and you're not giving me anything better
00:06:32.760 confidently tell me that patrick clancy was investigated and all of the crime scene was
00:06:40.120 investigated properly i am not a subject matter expert in that field but have you looked into it
00:06:45.240 i trust the exports more than you and i believe that she admitted it and i think that's so he
00:06:50.920 also testified that when he he got into the room where she supposedly jumped from okay that there
00:06:57.640 was so much blood on the wall that it looked like it was sprayed with a hose every single other
00:07:03.560 first responder that testified said there was no blood on the wall he was traumatized right 0.54
00:07:09.560 okay so this is like women say all that women say all the time all the time that trauma
00:07:15.080 affects your recall women say that oh what about lindsey clancy women say that's what you're saying
00:07:19.740 right well you're agreeing with me now but i'm taking i'm taking this argument so if that affects
00:07:24.700 her recall but it can't affect his so you're agreeing that so i can't it can't but according
00:07:29.480 according to you according that could affect recall but his trauma his trauma can't affect 0.99
00:07:34.620 recall so you're agreeing that that can affect recall no but i think it's i think it's a stupid
00:07:42.340 argument but look but i i think i gotta make it clear i gotta make it clear oh my god we did this
00:07:48.700 yesterday for like hours yeah um can't be moved look i would i would be the 12th juror so by the
00:07:54.780 way trauma can affect recall there's a 94 confirmation that here uh where is it trauma
00:08:02.100 could have where did that go this thing's moving so quick anyway i saw it there trauma could affect
00:08:06.280 recall basically was confirming that idea that it could affect recall yeah so i mean this man just
00:08:11.060 watched his kids get murdered so maybe he didn't remember every detail of the story so that that's
00:08:16.480 my my point is but but if i did it or if i didn't do that's a big detail the bigger detail than the
00:08:22.340 blood splattering if there's a few holes in a story fine if there's 50 holes in a story that's
00:08:28.700 gonna that's weird let's look into that so yeah but these are but these are big i just want to
00:08:33.340 read this trauma could affect recall because i finally stopped it so this is supported by
00:08:36.560 psychological research showing ptsd and traumatic stress can impair or alter memory and recall in
00:08:41.200 some context so effects vary by study and type of memory can you use a key fact check that the
00:08:46.720 specialist who testified testified in court that uh if you wake up and you're medicated and you
00:08:52.240 don't remember what happened and you're told what was happened how that affects your ability to
00:08:57.280 recall the memory okay that should pop up since you said it right into the mic it'll pop i mean
00:09:01.840 you guys should keep going it'll pop up when it pops up yeah so none of these details are really
00:09:08.120 that big to me okay the blood splatter the uh something about testing the medication you're
00:09:13.960 just not giving me anything okay so that that really negates that's that's the way i'm gonna
00:09:19.060 finish and then you can go okay that's more impactful than that she admitted so that's one
00:09:24.480 one thing though there's too many other things first of all can you summarize in like like no
00:09:29.480 there's too many things to summarize there is too many discrepancies to even summarize
00:09:34.200 for example i looked up her body temperature was 82 degrees right i looked up her specific 0.88
00:09:41.040 injuries injuries her being late laying in the fucking snow okay and then um according to all 0.94
00:09:48.160 of that information that i gave it would take the very least three hours to reach a body temperature 1.00
00:09:55.480 of 82 degrees fact check that please this actually popped up her body temperature was 82 degrees it 0.94
00:10:00.880 says widely reported trial details says patients for body temperature was 82.1 to me that's not
00:10:08.700 strong enough evidence because it doesn't point to anyone else it just says three hour timeline
00:10:13.680 this is supposedly like a less than 30 minute timeline that this all happened it's not enough
00:10:19.760 it takes three hours not enough with every single injury she has falling out of the roof
00:10:24.460 laying in the snow with that temperature so the claim that it would take at least three hours to
00:10:29.460 reach a body temperature of 82 degrees is not well supported as a general fact the source
00:10:33.300 indicated that emotional trauma patient can lose about three to five degrees fahrenheit of core
00:10:37.880 temperature per hour in frozen ground conditions and the cooling depends on factors like injury
00:10:42.440 severity blood loss and cooling you didn't include her and her injuries every i put in every single
00:10:49.020 injury she had blood loss what should her temperature what should her temperature have
00:10:55.700 been i didn't look up what her temperature would have been at 30 it said at the very least so what
00:11:02.380 should it have been i want to know what's the difference that's important you know how long
00:11:06.180 it takes to get to a body temperature no i don't but that's why my point is okay if it's a five
00:11:12.160 degree difference a 10 a 20 a 30 what is the what is what is the difference what is it okay i can't
00:11:18.300 Okay, well, that's pretty important.
00:11:19.520 So you're saying that there's inconsistencies,
00:11:21.540 but not necessarily that there's another theory
00:11:23.320 of who killed the children.
00:11:24.540 There's just inconsistencies.
00:11:25.100 I'm saying there was an improper investigation done
00:11:27.300 and it was not fair.
00:11:28.640 And there's no actual proof that she did it.
00:11:32.920 Except, except, except.
00:11:34.880 No, again, that she admitted it.
00:11:36.780 Okay, this is.
00:11:38.180 That's all I need.
00:11:39.540 Okay, okay.
00:11:40.180 Her fingerprints weren't on the knife.
00:11:42.680 So?
00:11:43.920 What do you mean?
00:11:44.660 So, here we go again.
00:11:45.840 So?
00:11:46.460 So.
00:11:46.800 And she admitted it.
00:11:47.500 So that means she couldn't have done it.
00:11:50.860 Why wouldn't her fingerprints be on the knife that she used to cut her neck and her wrist before she jumped out the window?
00:11:56.980 People find ways around things. 1.00
00:11:57.820 Why would she do that?
00:11:59.160 Because because she didn't want to get caught.
00:12:03.000 OK, so you're saying that she strangled her three children. 0.98
00:12:07.100 She crushed up pills, mixed them with lemonade, took them, slit her wrist, slit her throat, wiped the blade off,
00:12:15.280 took her Apple her watch off then it would make sense to wipe a murder it would make sense to 0.77
00:12:21.740 wipe if you're gonna kill yourself why would you do that then move the bed how do you know she
00:12:25.660 wanted to kill herself then move the bed like and jumped out the window and it was like a two-story 0.84
00:12:30.580 house in that time period not that good of like that makes it even longer you gotta go up and
00:12:35.620 that's not even you can't even be definitive that she wanted to die with that's your defense attorney
00:12:42.180 in her closing statements literally verbatim said that that all that was done couldn't be possible 0.99
00:12:49.500 in that timeline she literally said that verbatim if she really wanted to kill herself why didn't 0.99
00:12:53.880 she get a gun that would have done the job exactly if she wanted to kill herself she would have
00:12:58.960 she is a nurse why does she look up where the carotid artery is and why did she spell it wrong
00:13:04.760 so let me get this straight your evidence that she didn't do it is because she looked up 0.99
00:13:09.200 where an artery was and spell she's a fucking nurse so why would she not know where the carotid 0.96
00:13:14.760 artery is so that doesn't prove anything why was suicide methods googled on the home computer 0.99
00:13:20.060 while she wasn't even in the home she was at a doctor's appointment let me get this straight
00:13:24.140 your evidence that patrick did it is that she googled some things no i'm not saying he did it
00:13:30.540 i'm not saying she did medication her body temperature was off but we don't even know
00:13:34.680 it was three hours off but we don't even know what it was supposed to be we know that it takes three
00:13:39.960 hours to get to that you don't even know what it's supposed to be i know it takes three hours to get
00:13:44.760 to that do you i looked it up and did research okay so again this is just not strong enough
00:13:52.040 point is you don't think with all these holes in the story that there wasn't oh did you know also
00:13:57.960 it's either his dad or his grandfather who was a previous head police chief for this county
00:14:04.040 the county that it happened in is that where he's from yep that's where that would make sense that
00:14:09.080 would make sense you don't think that's weird you don't think it's weird that the previous da
00:14:13.000 immediately bought his house if i if i the da immediately bought his house most people have
00:14:19.000 relatives that do those kind of jobs the da and that the previous da in that county immediately
00:14:24.440 bought his house that all those children will kill that why would he do that why would you want that
00:14:28.280 house probably on sale and it's probably a good deal and he would not let the jurors go inside
00:14:32.920 only look at the outside why um i can't i'm not gonna i'm not gonna no not really oh my god what
00:14:39.420 i think is weird you don't have any like critical thinking skills no i see you're trying to shame me
00:14:43.860 you're trying to no i'm asking you're basically trying to say i can't think because i don't agree
00:14:48.620 with you critical think i i know you're saying which isn't it logically should it's kind of being
00:14:54.820 passive-aggressive you know you can't critically think because i don't know because every single
00:14:58.400 fact i bring in that should have looked at be looked into you you say so she admitted it because
00:15:03.360 i don't think it's a very good argument and i what would be a good argument to you uh i think all
00:15:08.880 signs point for some reason there's contradictory thing it's saying that some unidentified woman
00:15:13.680 bought it so that just popped up here look it up it's the previous da it's a previous da that
00:15:20.800 immediately bought it wouldn't let the jurors go inside only look at the outside okay uh i think
00:15:26.000 you guys have made your points you want to make your closing statements you already know what i'm
00:15:29.280 going to say so and she admitted it all these facts so what none of them were very good i believe
00:15:36.560 she did it because she admitted it right okay oh so it just clarified you're right about the house
00:15:41.280 being bought by the da not an unidentified woman that just corrected that thank you but yeah go
00:15:45.600 ahead my closing statement is that um i want to make it very clear i'm not saying she did it i'm
00:15:52.400 I'm not saying he did it.
00:15:53.660 I'm saying that there's not, I don't think there was a thorough investigation done.
00:15:57.860 I'm saying I want whoever did do it to be held accountable.
00:16:02.900 I want, I think there should have been a thorough investigation done.
00:16:06.680 I think there's too many holes in the story.
00:16:09.000 And so, and she admitted it doesn't do it for me, honestly.
