    The Lindsay Clancy Trial, Part 2: The Commonwealth's Own Experts Push Back

    In Part 2 of our coverage of the Lindsay Clancy trial, we hear from Lindsay's family, the hospital chaplain who spent hundreds of hours with her after the deaths of her children, and Dr. Phillip Resnick—a nationally recognized forensic psychiatrist and expert on filicide who evaluated Lindsay and concluded she was not criminally responsible. Then the Commonwealth calls three psychiatric experts of its own in rebuttal. They ultimately agree with prosecutors on the question that matters most: Lindsay was criminally responsible. But getting there produces some of the most surprising testimony of the entire five-week trial—and at times, the Commonwealth's own experts seem to complicate the case prosecutors spent weeks building. One exchange in particular forces a Commonwealth expert to confront the prosecution's own opening theory head-on. His answer is one of the biggest moments of the trial. Finally, both sides make their closing arguments and give the jury two dramatically different explanations for the same evidence. Lindsay Clancy killed her children. That has never been disputed. After five weeks of testimony, the question the jury must finally answer is the one this entire trial has been building toward: Was she criminally responsible when she did it? 🧵 New to This Feels Criminal?

    The Lindsay Clancy Trial, Part 1: What Did the Commonwealth Actually Prove?

    For weeks, the Commonwealth built its case against Lindsay Clancy. But as witness after witness took the stand, some of the testimony began to complicate the story prosecutors had laid out for the jury. In Part 1 of our coverage of the Lindsay Clancy trial, Tyrella walks Nikita—who hasn't been following the trial day-to-day—through the Commonwealth's case from opening statements through the end of its case-in-chief. Lindsay does not dispute that she killed her three children, Cora, Dawson, and Callan. The question at the center of this trial is whether she was legally criminally responsible when she did it. We break down Patrick Clancy's testimony, Lindsay's mental-health treatment and medication history, the prosecution's timeline and theory of the crime, and what the Commonwealth's own witnesses actually told the jury. Because by the time the prosecution rested, the question wasn't simply what evidence they had presented. It was how well their theory held up against it. 🧵 New to This Feels Criminal?

    Keffe D on Trial for Tupac's Murder: "My Client Is Full of Crap"

    For years, Duane "Keffe D" Davis publicly told versions of the story of Tupac Shakur's murder—in interviews, a documentary, and even his own memoir. Now those statements are at the center of the prosecution's case against him. But Keffe D's defense has a pretty unusual response: you can't believe him because he's "full of crap." In Part 2, we break down the opening statements in Keffe D's murder trial and the dramatically different stories being presented to the jury. Prosecutors say Keffe D orchestrated Tupac's killing as retaliation for the beating of his nephew, Orlando Anderson. The defense argues that Keffe D lied and exaggerated for years—and that corrupt law enforcement, missing evidence, conflicting witness accounts, and a deeply flawed investigation leave plenty of room for reasonable doubt. We also get into the controversial proffer agreement behind Keffe D's original statements, his memoir, the alleged murder weapon, the defense's police-corruption theory, and the major witnesses who could take the stand as the trial unfolds. After nearly 30 years, someone is finally on trial for Tupac Shakur's murder. But can prosecutors prove their case when their most important witness against Keffe D may be…Keffe D himself? 🧵 New to This Feels Criminal?

    Who Killed Tupac? The Murder, the Suspects & the Case Against Keffe D | Part 1

    Nearly 30 years after Tupac Shakur was shot and killed on the Las Vegas Strip, a man is finally on trial for his murder. On September 7, 1996, Tupac and Death Row Records founder Suge Knight were leaving the Mike Tyson fight in Las Vegas when a white Cadillac pulled alongside their BMW and someone opened fire. Tupac was hit four times. Six days later, he died at just 25 years old. For decades, theories about his murder have implicated rival gangs, the East Coast–West Coast rap feud, Suge Knight, Orlando "Baby Lane" Anderson, and more. But the case remained unsolved—until investigators turned their attention to a man who had spent years publicly talking about what happened that night: Duane "Keffe D" Davis. In Part 1, we break down the events leading up to Tupac's murder, the MGM Grand fight that may have set everything in motion, the original investigation, the suspects, Keffe D's extraordinary history of interviews and admissions, and how his own words eventually helped put him on trial almost three decades later. Because after nearly 30 years of theories about who killed Tupac, a jury is finally going to hear the case. 🧵 New to This Feels Criminal?

    Lauren McCluskey: Can We Tell Which Relationships Will Turn Deadly? (Part 1)

    When 21-year-old University of Utah student Lauren McCluskey ended a brief relationship, she had good reason to believe she'd caught the warning signs early. The man she'd been dating had lied about his name, his age, and his criminal history. Lauren ended the relationship immediately. But he didn't leave her alone. What followed was a terrifying escalation of stalking, harassment, extortion, and repeated attempts to get help — ending less than three weeks later with Lauren's murder on the campus where she lived and went to school. Lauren's case leaves behind an agonizing question: when we look back after someone has been killed, the warning signs can seem painfully obvious. But are they actually obvious before the violence happens? In Part 1, we begin Lauren's story and ask a much bigger question: Can we tell which abusive relationships are most likely to turn deadly? Because if we can identify danger before someone is killed, that changes the question of what we should be doing about it. 🧵 New to This Feels Criminal?

    The Murder of Calum Simpson: Do We Really Treat Male and Female Victims Differently? - Part 2

    After researching dozens of studies, court decisions, and primary sources, we discovered the answer wasn't nearly as simple as we expected. Do men receive more justice than women? Are women taken less seriously? Or are different myths shaping how we perceive different victims? In Part 2, we examine what the research actually says about victim credibility, gender stereotypes, reporting, prosecution, and sentencing—and why the evidence challenged some of our own assumptions. Because the biggest surprise wasn't whether gender matters. It was how it matters. 🧵 New to This Feels Criminal?

    The Murder of Calum Simpson | The Question We Couldn't Ignore- Part 1

    A Facebook post comparing the murder of Calum Simpson to violence against women raised a question we couldn't stop thinking about: Do we treat violence against women differently than violence against men? At first, the answer seemed obvious. Then we started reading the court records. In this episode, we tell Calum Simpson's story—from the night he met two strangers to the evidence presented in court—and explain why one social media post sent us down a much bigger investigation. This is Part 1 of a two-part series. In Part 2, we leave the courtroom and follow the research to see whether the evidence actually supports what we thought when we started. 🧵 New to This Feels Criminal?
