Canonical URL: https://lindsay.conspirograph.com/topic/prosecution-case/card/241
Prosecution expert Kirk Heilbrun completed his criminal-responsibility opinion, while the Commonwealth's rebuttal and Trial Day 20 remained in progress at noon.
[SWORN TESTIMONY] Forensic psychologist Kirk Heilbrun testified that the evidence more strongly supported a serious suicide attempt and killing the children out of a distorted wish not to leave them behind than a command-hallucination account. He concluded that Clancy was criminally responsible and retained awareness that the killings were illegal, while opining that her moral judgment was affected by her wish to die and not leave the children. [VERIFIED FACT] Trial Day 20 and the Commonwealth's rebuttal remained in progress at the noon research cutoff; this card therefore does not present a complete witness list or final account of the day. [UNKNOWN] No verdict, mistrial, indefinite stay, or authoritative adjournment had occurred by cutoff. [UNKNOWN] No new scene, DNA, exercise-band, Watch/Health, surveillance, 911, window, blood, or third-party-involvement evidence appeared in the source-grounded morning record.
