Lindsay Clancy Trial: Did Graphic Testimony Backfire on the Prosecution? With Special Guest Elyse Hershon
About this episode
Joshua Ritter is joined by attorney Elyse M. Hershon to break down Day 12 of the Lindsay Clancy murder trial.
Jurors heard from mental health counselor Latiesha Dukes, who treated Clancy in the weeks before the deaths of her three children. Dukes testified that Clancy reported intrusive thoughts but showed no signs of mania, paranoia or psychosis. Later, graphic medical examiner testimony caused Clancy to openly sob, prompting the judge to call a recess.
Then, former federal prosecutor Neama Rahmani joins Josh to discuss major developments in the Luigi Mangione cases. A judge ruled that the jury in Mangione’s upcoming New York state murder trial will remain anonymous amid concerns about harassment and outside influence. The court also approved an overflow courtroom with an internal video feed ahead of jury selection on September 8. Meanwhile, Mangione’s attorneys and federal prosecutors are expected to discuss a possible plea agreement during a federal court conference Friday.
Plus, Nick Reiner has been indicted on two counts of murder in the deaths of his parents, director Rob Reiner and Michele Singer Reiner. The grand jury indictment adds special-circumstance allegations of multiple murders and lying in wait, eliminates the need for a preliminary hearing and makes Reiner eligible for life without parole or the death penalty if convicted. Reiner has pleaded not guilty, and prosecutors have not announced whether they will seek capital punishment.
