## Resource

Defense expert Dr. Donald Condie, a clinical and forensic psychiatrist who reviewed Lindsay Clancy's medical records, testified that her providers' notes show postpartum depression progressing to postpartum psychosis — and acknowledged she never reported hearing voices to any treating provider before the killings. On cross, he testified she may not have reported everything out of concern about losing access to her children or risking her nursing license. Defense psychologist Dr. Paul Zeizel, who has seen Clancy 45 times since the killings, then testified that she told her then-husband by phone from the hospital that she heard a male voice telling her she had no choice but to kill her children and herself, and that there was no evidence she was faking. Zeizel testified he did not coach her; his account corroborates testimony Patrick Clancy gave earlier as a prosecution witness. Clancy has pleaded not guilty to three counts of first-degree murder in the deaths of Cora, 5, Dawson, 3, and Callan, 8 months, and contests criminal responsibility. Also: in Ohio, Ashley Flynn — a 37-year-old substitute teacher and middle school volleyball coach in Tipp City — was shot in her home in February. Her husband, Caleb Flynn, a season 12 American Idol contestant, has pleaded not guilty to eleven counts including aggravated murder. Both sides have now filed competing motions over pretrial publicity ahead of a September 17 trial. And in Las Vegas, a Clark County medical examiner testified about Tupac Shakur's injuries and a reluctant witness testified under court order in the murder trial of Duane Davis, who has pleaded not guilty.
