Lindsay Clancy Jury DEADLOCKED, Sandusky Accuser Recants, and Fake NFL Player Fraud, with Mark Eiglarsh and Jonna Spilbor | Ep. 1389
What was discussed
Lindsay Clancy jury deadlocked1:48
- Megyn Kellyassertion
The jury has been deliberating for over twenty hours and the judge gave an informal urging to continue rather than a formal Allen charge.
Clancy trial insanity defense dynamics6:19
- Mark Eiglarshopinion
The case is about interpretation of whether she is insane enough for a mental institution or not insane enough for jail, and the defense lawyer's closing argument fizzled by not focusing on the burden of proof.
- Jonna Spilborassertion
Massachusetts law is weird because the burden of proving insanity stays on the prosecution, and a mistrial might open the door for negotiation.
Defense lawyer Kevin Reddington performance9:04
- Mark Eiglarshopinion
Reddington failed Clancy with a disorganized closing argument that didn't focus on the burden of proof and unnecessarily attacked witnesses.
- Jonna Spilboropinion
Reddington scored points during cross-examination, but the prosecution's closing was strong and the defense's aggressive tactics may have backfired.
Expert credibility and jury competence29:47
- Mark Eiglarshopinion
Jurors may lack the competence to evaluate expert credibility, citing an example of a juror who couldn't spell 'unanimous.'
- Jonna Spilborassertion
It is the jury's job to evaluate dueling experts, and they have the power to decide which testimony to accept.
Family and medical system failures32:09
- Michelle (caller)opinion
The family and medical system failed Clancy by not separating her from the children when she expressed thoughts of harm.
- Mark Eiglarshopinion
Hindsight is 20/20, but the family likely failed to act because they were in denial or believed she was improving.
- Jonna Spilborassertion
Patients have a responsibility to be honest with doctors, and Clancy may have lied to avoid separation from her kids.
SSRI drugs and psychotic break39:57
- Patty (caller)opinion
SSRI drugs may have caused a psychotic break in Clancy, similar to what happened to her sister.
- Mark Eiglarshassertion
SSRIs can have severe side effects, but it's unclear if Clancy was actually taking the medications as prescribed.
- Jonna Spilborassertion
The defense that drugs messed up her mind doesn't hold water if she wasn't taking them, as the pill bottles were full.
Harry and Meghan marriage troubles45:25
- Dan Woottonclip
Harry and the kids are basing themselves in the UK while Meghan plans to travel internationally, indicating a physical separation.
- Alison Bosshoffclip
Sources confirm the physical separation is long-term and this is the beginning of the end.
- Rob Shooterclip
The real war will be over Archie and Lilibet, with Meghan convinced there is nothing left to save.
Custody battle jurisdiction rules48:13
- Mark Eiglarshassertion
Jurisdiction for custody generally follows the children after six months of residence, so the UK will likely have jurisdiction.
- Jonna Spilboropinion
Meghan made a mistake by letting the children go to the UK unless she plans to establish jurisdiction there.
Jerry Sandusky accuser recants58:13
- Victim 10clip
He was misled and coerced by prosecutors into giving testimony that aligned with their desired narrative.
- Pennsylvania Attorney General's officeclip
The recantation is highly suspect and irrelevant, and the defense will not succeed in getting a new trial.
Sandusky case other victims stand firm1:03:02
- Mark Eiglarshopinion
The recantation of one victim is unlikely to disturb the conviction because nine other victims have not recanted.
- Jonna Spilboropinion
The timing is suspect, and the outcome won't change anything because the other victims are not recanting.
Tyler Robinson preliminary hearing delays1:27:57
- Mark Eiglarshopinion
The judge is indulging the defense unnecessarily and turning the hearing into a circus, which is cruel to the family.
- Jonna Spilboropinion
The judge is giving off Judge Ito vibes and allowing the defense to present everything at great expense.
Brian Kohberger evidentiary hearing granted1:31:03
- Megyn Kellyassertion
Kohberger has been granted an evidentiary hearing and a new attorney is joining to scrutinize the plea.
- Jonna Spilborassertion
The prosecutors and judge allowed Kohberger to plead guilty without allocuting, so there is no admission on the record.
- Mark Eiglarshopinion
The hearing will go nowhere because Kohberger admitted he was guilty, and there is no credible proof of coercion.
Fake NFL player fraud scheme1:36:22
- Megyn Kellyassertion
Dejan Love posed as a 49ers player and scammed women out of over $1.3 million through fake investment schemes.
- Mark Eiglarshspeculation
Love will likely plead out, serve a short sentence in a federal camp, and be released early.
- Jonna Spilborassertion
Love was so committed to the con that he showed up as a professional football player on Google.
