@scrippsnews: Dr. Elizabeth Laposata, a Brown University professor who was a chief medical examiner in Rhode Island for 12 years, testified for the defense during Lindsay Clancy's murder trial on Tuesday. She said she believes the exercise bands used to kill Clancy's three children were wrapped around them several times, leading to something of a demonstration as the prosecutors brought the exercise bands back out of evidence during a tense cross-examination. Clancy has pleaded not guilty in the deaths of the children — Callan, Dawson and Cora — who were found in the family’s Duxbury, Massachusetts, home in January 2023. Prosecutors say she planned the killings, while her defense argues she was suffering from bipolar disorder and postpartum psychosis at the time and should not be held criminally responsible.

Bringing those out was totally unnecessary. Again it’s a pathetic attempt to shock the jury. I can’t believe the prosecutors are getting away with this behaviour. Their careers are ruined

Putting gloves on to not contaminate it and then puts it on a desk with papers that multiple people have touched. Jesus christ.

Imagine the prosecutor being the most hated person in the trial of the death of three children. That’s incompetence at its highest.

She’s pulling a document from 2011 from an entirely separate case and asking this woman if she remembers specifically what she said 15 years ago? Jesus Christ

Yes but that prosecutor isn’t putting into consideration the freaking friction and pressure! She just had them LOOSELY in a circle, where there is no resistance at all! Of course they fell apart
