Lindsay Clancy trial live updates: Defense attorney’s aggressive questioning draws gasps as Clancy’s lawyer lays into pyschiatrist: ‘This is not funny’

Lindsay Clancy’s lawyer just laid into psychiatrist Dr. Avram Mack for smirking while he was testifying about different types of mental evaluations.

“What are you smiling for? This is not funny, sir,” defense attorney Kevin Reddington said to Mack.

Prosecutors objected and the judge sustained the objection.

Reddington also accused Mack of having a confirmatory bias by the fact he was hired by prosecutors to evaluate Clancy’s criminal responsibility.

“You have a confirmatory bias … you had read all this material, you’ve spoken to prosecutors, you talked to [psychiatrist] Kirk Heilburn about how you’re going to go in and evaluate Lindsay Clancy right?” Reddington said.

“No,” Mack responded.

Reddington then asked Mack how much he makes as a forensic psychiatrist.

“It ranges… it can be several hundreds of thousands of dollars, it can be a few,” Mack said.

The jurors have been staring intently during the tense exchange between Reddington and Mack.

Redding grilled Dr. Avram Mack about the fact that he only evaluated Clancy years after she killed her kids.

“There was a significant passage of time between January 2023 and when you saw her a few months ago,” Reddington said.

He then began to ask Mack about where he stayed in Massachusetts when he conducted the exams in April 2026.

“Did you stay in a hotel, in a van, where did you stay?” Reddington asked, drawing chuckles from the gallery.

Mack said he stayed in a private home and Reddington asked if another psychiatrist who joined Mack for the evaluations also stayed at the private home.

“I don’t know,” Mack answered, to gasps from courtroom attendees.

“You don’t know?” Reddington said.

“He didn’t stay there, that’s for sure,” Mack said.

Lindsay Clancy is sitting at the defense table wearing a pink blouse and her long brown hair flowing down her back at the fifth week of her high-profile murder trial, as the case winds down.

To her right was a grey box that had words of affirmation on it, including “Laugh lots … smile.”

When Judge William Sullivan greeted her this morning, she responded “Good morning, Your Honor.”

This is the fifth week of trial of her murder case.

Psychiatrist Dr. Avram Mack is back on the witness stand as Lindsay Clancy’s lawyer, William Sullivan, has begun his cross-examination.

Mack on Friday told the jury he thought that Clancy was aware of the wrongfulness of strangling her three kids and therefore should be held criminally liable for their murders.

But Sullivan asked Mack how many times he’d testified regarding criminal responsibility in the past.

“One or two times,” the psychiatrist answered.
