I’m sticking with theory, Reddington was placed to protect Patrick 100%

I actually have a somewhat different theory than the ones presented in your video. I believe Redington made a judgment call to stay focused on the not guilty by reason of insanity defense. I think his original motivations probably included what was best for Lindsay, including what had the best chance of success of keeping her out of prison. I also believe that she believed that she did this at least at the start of this trial, and that does matter. And had the trial been split, it would’ve negated a lot of traumatic testimony, particularly the children’s autopsies, which was horrifically traumatic for Lindsey. I believe he was well aware of the deficiencies of the case, but he was choosing to focus and hoping that the trial would be split and he could stipulate so it could be focused even better. When that got denied, he was put in a position of choosing to essentially fight with one hand voluntarily tied behind his back or trying to fight both battles at once and risk confusing the jury. I think if he had done this, there’s a chance the jury could’ve been further split into not guilty, not guilty by reason of insanity, and at least one but potentially more guilty. I think the fact that he was almost successful in spite of all of that, 11 to one, is proof that was the correct choice, even if it sacrificed displaying the insufficient investigation. You could feel as frustration at certain points. The reason he unloaded in this hearing also makes sense in multiple ways. There was no longer a jury to confuse. He was speaking primarily to other Legal professionals. He was speaking to the judge to remind him that this wouldn’t have happened if he had just granted the split. He was speaking to the prosecution and DA to let them know just how much ammunition he has for a re-trial should he choose to challenge it second time around. And he may have also been speaking to Lindsay. I think we’ve seen her change over the course of the trial, and I do think part of that might be that she’s seeing all of the problems in the case against her. This would have supported that again.

I wonder if this also means Lindsay knows more than we think 👀

People may scoff at the so called ‘TikTok detectives’ but go back just a couple of years, Gabby Petito was found thanks to those online, dogeared detectives. Yes there’s a lot of crap but there’s also been some phenomenal work done by many. Reddington would be a blind fool not to have paid attention to some of it and I think, in part it is why we are seeing him question the things we have all been wanting him to. Let’s hope he digs in on this.

Perhaps it simply was that Lindsay believed she had done it and she was so broken she had no fight and didn’t want to drag Patrick through any of this. So her family was just like “she’s sick she doesn’t need prison she needs help”. Now that she has seen the other side and realizes how much support she has she’s able to accept that she’s not responsible and is ready to fight. Praise be. I kinda want a second trial so he or whomever represents her can present the defense she deserves and draw attention to all the holes in the prosecution’s case.

He needs to partner with a woman attorney. idk if his ego would allow it but he needs a different perspective.

I agree on point three. I think he missed it. I think he isn’t up to snuff on digital age and technology and social media to the degree he needed to be.

I agree with your third point that he missed it and I think especially if Lindsay believed that she did it in the beginning too because I’m sure in their conversations she was probably telling him about her memories of it (which we know now are false memories) so in hindsight it’s clear she didn’t do it but in that moment he didn’t see it. Speculation of course too haha

I love that you talk through your thoughts to refine them. I'm blessed to have a beautiful, thoughtful friend and we often send 10 min voice messages back and forth just ranting abt politics and everything else. it's therapeutic and such a great way to trace out what I really think. thanks for sharing w us ❤️

I think its a mix of being blinded by his legacy and that he missed it. like he HAD to of seen SOME of it because he saw enough to argue the level of reasonable doubt he did... He just didn't catch the full scope of it all until we all did a complete 180 on a case none of us expected to do a 180 on.

I do have cognitive dissonance 😩 I would love a new judge. Like I just don’t see how another trial can go fairly. Nonetheless I hate that she has to go through it again but imma need reddington to lock in and get it together.

But that is why he is a judge to be above above above what the lawyers present. He has the gravel. Stop

I’ve been assuming that he/the family wants LC to remain in a psych facility for her own benefit and that’s why he never went full NG.
