I'm Brett.
And I'm Alice.
And we are the prosecutors.
But today on the prosecutors, things get fiery in the Lindsey Clancy case.
Hello, everybody, and welcome to this episode of The Prosecutors. I'm Brett, and I'm joined as always by my cross co-host, Alice. I'm really cross.
Do you notice just how calm my voice is right now, Brett? You're so calm. Because you know that I am very cross. What a British way of saying how angry I am. I'm very cross. I'm so intensely cross right now. Because, of course, we told you guys over the weekend, get ready, watch the doctor who treated Lindsay Clancy, Jennifer Tufts, direct testimony, because it was gonna be a fiery cross-examination. Yeah. And it was. Fiery doesn't capture everything we want to say. This is how calm I get right before I yell at my kids.
You're so calm.
I'm so calm right now because some of you told me last time that I get a little bit too loud when I get excited. I don't know what you're talking about. I, an excitable person, never. Certainly not about the law. Certainly not about murder trials.
The machine just goes all the way to the red when Alice starts talking about. It
actually really does. I watched it and I was like, oh, better turn that down. So yeah, I am a bit cross for so many reasons. So many reasons that I'm sure we'll dive into Brett, but I'll leave it at that. Why'd you say my name like that? Is that a teaser or what?
That was a teaser. Okay. So before we get into the actual substance of the cross, I have a few things to say as well. I want to apologize for my navity when it comes to this case, because I was very hopeful. That out of all the tragedy in this case, that it nevertheless would shine a light on mental health, shine a light on the deficiencies in women's mental health in particular, maybe lead to some positive things, maybe enlighten people about all that. And today that hope was just dashed. And I realize how foolish that hope was now, because the defense attorney, his job is not to act. Represent the mental health system. His job is to advocate for his client. And one way you can do that is to confuse the jury, to make them believe certain things that aren't true.
That's his job. I thought he did a really good job of that today at times. But the problem is, so many of the things that he spent time mocking are things that are actually incredibly helpful for people out there who are suffering from mental health. Mental health issues. So before we even get into it, there's just a few things I want to say. I was gonna try and wax poetic about this, but as always, you guys are much better at this than me. So I want to read to you a comment on the gallery that I think sums this up and is really good message to those of you out there who may be struggling with these things and may have watched this today and may now have all sorts of concerns about various drugs that you think.
thought might be helpful and how your doctor's treating you and everything else. I just wanna read this. I'm not gonna say the name even though it's public just because just 'cause they're saying on the gallery doesn't mean they want all of you to see their name. So here's what they say. I just want to share some words of encouragement based on what I've seen Ray the Cross of Dr. Tusk today. For anyone who finds themselves in the same trial and error phase of psychiatric medications that LC unfortunately was going through, trial and error is unfortunately how psychiatry works. Please don't give up and don't let this case deter you from pursuing medications as a possible mental health management tool if you need them.
