Summary
Lindsay Clancy's trial is underway in Plymouth Superior Court. The facts are not in dispute. She killed her three children in their Duxbury home on January 24, 2023. The question is whether postpartum psychosis made her unable to appreciate what she was doing — and that question depends on a diagnosis her doctors allegedly never made while they had the chance. Psychotherapist Shavaun Scott joins Tony Brueski for the full conversation on the clinical reality behind this case. The interview covers three distinct lanes. The spectrum — baby blues versus postpartum depression versus psychosis, what her providers allegedly charted versus what she was reportedly describing, and the bipolar diagnosis that arrived after the killings instead of before. The treatment timeline — thirteen medications, five providers, seventeen-minute appointments, a suicide hotline that turned her away, and a system that allegedly never assembled the complete picture. And the public divide — why people split on this case, why the judge blocked lay witnesses, and what justice looks like when every possible outcome is a loss. Shavaun explains why a woman in psychosis can appear functional to everyone around her, why the prescribing chain may have accelerated her crisis, and why the public's insistence on choosing between monster and patient reflects a fundamental misunderstanding of what psychotic illness does to a brain. Tony Brueski and psychotherapist Shavaun Scott, author of Night Bird, discuss the Lindsay Clancy case.
