The Clancy Prosecution Witness Commits A MORTAL SIN!

The Lindsay Clancy murder trial is nearing its conclusion, and defense attorney Kevin Reddington is turning up the heat on the prosecution’s final expert witnesses. On today’s Hot Mics with Billy Bush, Billy breaks down Reddington’s explosive cross-examination of forensic psychologist Dr. Kirk Heilbrun, who testified about Lindsay’s alleged command hallucination, intrusive thoughts and the prosecution’s theory that she decided to take her children with her when she attempted suicide. Then the testimony veered into dangerous territory. After discussion of Lindsay’s Catholic faith, suicide as a “mortal sin” and whether she believed she and her children would be reunited in heaven, Reddington accused prosecutors of misconduct and moved for a mistrial. The judge denied the motion, but Billy examines whether the Commonwealth has created yet another serious problem for its case as closing arguments approach. Billy also speaks with Renee Kimball, organizer of “Lindsay’s Army of Love,” after hundreds of women dressed in pink gathered outside the Plymouth County Courthouse. Kimball explains why the movement says its mission isn’t to excuse the deaths of Lindsay’s three children, but to raise awareness about postpartum psychosis, maternal mental health and what supporters believe were systemic failures in Lindsay’s treatment. Then, a major update in our reporting on Hayden Panettiere. Following our exclusive interview with Hayden’s longtime neighbor Mia Terrazas, Hot Mics producer Harry Jacobs contacted the LAPD about unusual activity Mia reported at Hayden’s Los Angeles residence following her death — including an unfamiliar vehicle repeatedly appearing in Hayden’s parking space, someone apparently inside the apartment and Hayden’s Ring camera appearing damaged and covered with black electrical tape. Harry explains his conversation with LAPD, the information and photographs provided to police, and new questions surrounding packages addressed to Brian Hickerson continuing to arrive at Hayden’s residence. Mia has also contacted the building’s HOA president seeking information about who currently has authorized access to Hayden’s unit. There is no evidence at this point establishing who was inside Hayden’s apartment, who interfered with the Ring camera or whether any of the activity is connected to her death. Billy also reacts to new comments from Hayden’s mother, Lesley Vogel, about watching her daughter return to her relationship with Hickerson and the painful boundaries she ultimately felt forced to establish. Plus: the bizarre prostitution-sting arrest involving San Francisco 49ers owner Jed York — an undercover ad, a $140 proposed encounter and an arrest that produced one extremely expensive mugshot.
