or, you know, mini-teaser episode with me, Annie Elise, your true crime bestie,
over here on Serialistly. Now, as most of you, I'm sure, have been following or have seen on
your feed or just have knowledge of, one of the most wildest trials of the year has finally,
officially come to a close. And when I tell you that there were twists and turns until the literal
final moments,
I mean it. We had a jury that could not reach a unanimous decision, major disagreements involving
one juror, an emergency appeal to the Massachusetts Supreme Judicial Court, and an absolutely
explosive final day in court. With so many twists and such a roller coaster, I have never seen
anything like that in a trial. So many experts that had weighed in have never seen anything like
it. It had everybody on the edge of their seat. And honestly, there has been so much happening
with the Lindsay Clancy case
that
it can really be hard to keep all of it straight. So about a month and a half ago, over on my second
true crime podcast feed, 10 to life, one zero to life, I released a deep dive that walked you
through the entire backstory of this case, okay? Who Lindsay and Patrick were, what happened to
their three children, Lindsay's mental health leading up to that day, and ultimately how we
got to trial. However, now that the trial is officially over, I knew I needed to update it.
There were a lot of things that, you know, we needed to
have a full start to finish. So today I released a brand new, fully updated, complete timeline of
this case over on 10 to life. It still includes the entire backstory if you want to get a little
bit more in the weeds of it, but then it also takes you straight into the trial. Everything
that happened over the last five weeks, including Patrick's testimony, all the theories and the
speculation surrounding him, the social media storm that completely just took over this case,
the battle over Lindsay's criminal response,
the jury deliberations, you know, the alleged 11 to 1 holdout, the fight involving that one juror,
the Supreme Court involvement, I mean, all of it. Everything that happened through the very end of
day last Friday. So basically, if you want the Lindsay Clancy case from start to finish,
all in one place, this is the episode for you. And it's available right now over on 10 to life. So

now. Then I want you to come over, tell me what you think about everything, because trust me,
we have a lot to talk about with this one, especially now that it is an official mistrial.
Will the state retry Lindsay? Will they include murder one? Will they offer a plea deal of
manslaughter since that was put on the table as one of the verdict options? Or what's going through
their mind knowing that it was an 11 to 1 holdout? I don't know. I don't know. I don't know. I don't
split in favor of the defense. So I'm walking you through everything in this episode. You can go
listen right now. Don't worry, you're still going to get your Monday brand new episode like you
