Attorney Josh Kolsrud and former law enforcement officer Claudia King examine the Lindsay Clancy case as the jury considers whether she should be held criminally responsible for the deaths of her three children.

Josh and Claudia review the evidence presented by the prosecution and defense, the strongest moments through the trial, and the questions facing jurors after more than 10 hours of deliberations across the first two days.

They explain the legal definition of Not Criminally Responsible in Massachusetts and why the state’s standard differs from the insanity defense used in many other jurisdictions. They also discuss Lindsay Clancy’s role in managing her treatment, including the difficult question of personal responsibility when mental illness and medication are central to the defense.

The conversation also examines notable juror behavior, including a juror who cried during the prosecution’s closing argument and another who reportedly took no notes throughout the trial. Finally, Josh and Claudia consider how long deliberations could continue and when the possibility of a hung jury and mistrial may become a serious concern.

No Contest provides legal analysis and former law enforcement insight into one of the most difficult and closely watched criminal cases in Massachusetts.
