Lindsay Clancy Trial
Lindsay Clancy is on trial for the murders of her 3 children
The trial of Lindsay Clancy, accused of murdering her three children, is underway in Massachusetts, with prosecutors seeking to admit audio recordings of the 911 call made by her husband Patrick Clancy, as reported by CNN. These recordings allegedly contain descriptions of how he found his children and the methods used to strangle them, which prosecutors claim demonstrate "deliberate premeditation, extreme atrocity or cruelty, and the state of mind of the defendant." The case highlights concerns about the reliability of forensic evidence, an issue also raised by Van Jones and others, who warn that "junk science" continues to drive wrongful convictions, a problem that has been seen in other cases, such as the Denver Murder Case, where edited video evidence was admitted. Meanwhile, efforts to expose state surveillance secrets, as discussed on wired.com, may also impact the trial, as lawyers seek to preserve and disclose relevant evidence.
