Lindsay Clancy's Own Witness Says Psychosis Allows WHAT?

Dr. Sejal Shah took the stand as a prosecution witness in the Lindsay Clancy trial, evaluated Clancy days after her children died, and then said something on cross-examination that cuts straight into the defense's argument. Tony Brueski and retired FBI Special Agent Robin Dreeke break down what Shah conceded, and why it matters.
Shah agreed that a person can communicate and make plans while in a state of psychosis, and described Clancy as an honest patient. That admission lands alongside testimony from two other doctors who treated Clancy directly. Dr. Jennifer Tufts and Dr. Alia Goodheart both testified they observed no signs of psychosis and both said they never knew Clancy had called a crisis line twice, calls documented in Clancy's own civil filings. Goodheart also acknowledged she doesn't believe she's ever treated a patient with postpartum psychosis and couldn't say how many postpartum depression patients she'd seen in twenty years of practice.
The episode also covers Day 10 of the trial, when defense attorney Kevin Reddington cross-examined Tufts for hours. He established that all fourteen of her appointments with Clancy happened over video, that she never asked Clancy to sign a release for records from a separate clinic, and that she hadn't read a 2021 study linking thyroid function to postpartum psychosis. The prosecution's cross drew out that Clancy booked her own appointments and drove herself to an emergency room.
Clancy has pleaded not guilty to three counts of first-degree murder. Dreeke weighs what all of this adds up to. Support is available around the clock at 988.
