Hidden Killers With Tony Brueski | True Crime News & Commentary

Kevin Reddington has told the world what he will not take for Lindsay Clancy, and he said it before the DA has even decided whether to retry her. Defense attorney and former prosecutor Eric Faddis joins Tony Brueski to explain how a public ultimatum works as a negotiating tool.
The mistrial came September 4, 2026, after seven days and 38 hours of deliberation. Reddington says eleven jurors were ready to acquit. Since then he has gone on Good Morning America and asked President Trump to consider a pardon, knowing a president has no power over a state murder charge. He has called DA Tim Cruz a hard-charging prosecutor and a conservative gentleman and said he hopes Cruz will reconsider. And he has said this: "I would not plead Lindsay Clancy to a day in jail." His reason is that she was sick.
There is a motion on the calendar too. On September 29, Reddington will argue for a required finding of not guilty under Rule 25, a request that the judge end the case because the evidence could not support a conviction.
Eric explains what a pardon plea to a president who cannot act is really meant to do to an elected county DA. He weighs whether the no-jail line is a bluff or a demand an 11-1 split lets Reddington make. He describes how a defense team uses a near-acquittal in private talks with prosecutors. He explains why a long-shot motion still matters. And he lays out how an agreement gets built around psychiatric care with no admission of guilt.
Lindsay Clancy is charged with three counts of first-degree murder in the January 24, 2023 deaths of Cora, Dawson, and Callan. She remains at Tewksbury Hospital. The DA's office declined to comment on Reddington's remarks.

Patrick Clancy's attorney has told the people spreading conspiracy theories about him exactly what is coming, and he did it in writing. Defense attorney and former prosecutor Eric Faddis joins Tony Brueski to break down how that promise gets kept.
Attorney Howard Cooper released the statement on September 8, 2026. It says Patrick and his family have endured a "relentless, escalating and destructive defamation campaign" for months. It describes the claims that Patrick was involved in his children's deaths as outright falsehoods spread by people who appear intent on boosting their own social media profiles. It says those responsible should understand there will be consequences, that every appropriate measure will be pursued to hold them accountable, including legally, and that law enforcement has been notified.
Eric takes the audience inside each step. Unmasking an anonymous account starts with a lawsuit against a John Doe and a subpoena to the platform. "Just a theory" protects a creator only until the post states something as fact that the creator cannot back up. Discovery in a defamation suit reaches direct messages, drafts, and the revenue an account earned from the posts in question. A campaign that is coordinated and relentless can cross into criminal territory, which is why the phrase "law enforcement has been notified" matters. And a few large judgments could set the template every future family's lawyer copies.
Patrick Clancy was the first witness prosecutors called at the trial of his former wife, Lindsay Clancy, charged with three counts of first-degree murder in the January 24, 2023 deaths of Cora, Dawson, and Callan. That trial ended in a hung jury on September 4, 2026. DA Tim Cruz has not decided on a retrial. The next court date is September 29.

The defense in the Matthew Farwell case is building its strategy around Sandra Birchmore's mental health records, her journals, and her history of instability. They want the jury to see a woman who killed herself. Prosecutors want the jury to see a twelve-year-old girl who walked into a police youth program and spent the next decade being exploited by men in uniform.
Four officers connected to the Stoughton Police Department had involvement with Sandra. Prosecutors allege Farwell was the first, beginning when she was fifteen. He allegedly tracked her location, made her delete texts, and sent at least twenty messages in the year before her death describing choking her by the throat. His DNA was the major contributor on the ligature found around her neck. The state crime lab identified unknown male DNA in 2021 but never obtained Farwell's sample. The FBI matched it three years later.
A strangulation expert found Sandra's hyoid bone fractured with zero documented cases of that injury in women found seated. Abrasions on her nose, hemorrhage in a neck muscle, a broken necklace on the bedroom floor. The original investigation ruled it suicide before the autopsy. The ME wasn't told it might be a homicide.
Before her death, Sandra booked prenatal appointments and planned to announce her pregnancy on Valentine's Day. Farwell had attended a training on staging versus suicide in hanging deaths. The defense says Sandra's damage proves she killed herself. The prosecution says the damage proves what was done to her.

Lindsay Clancy's trial lasted six weeks in Plymouth Superior Court. The jury deadlocked eleven to one. Judge Sullivan declared a mistrial September 4. While the jury was still deliberating, the internet had already moved on to its own verdict — and Patrick Clancy was the defendant.
The conspiracy theories accused Patrick of staging the scene and killing his own children. Creators used astrology, birth charts, and livestream footage as evidence. Lindsay admitted through her defense that she killed Cora, Dawson, and Callan. Patrick was the prosecution's first witness.
A man ended a $200,000 engagement on TikTok because his fiancée said he couldn't understand postpartum illness. He called her a monster. Four million people watched.
On September 8, Patrick's attorney Howard Cooper released a statement calling the accusations a defamation campaign. Law enforcement has been notified. Lindsay's own attorney Kevin Reddington praised the conspiracy theorists after the mistrial.
Psychotherapist Shavaun Scott joins Tony Brueski for the full conversation — the relationships breaking, the grieving father being accused, and the fear underneath the rage that the country won't name.

Rob and Michele Reiner spent years trying to save a son who sources say bragged about what he could get away with. They paid for treatment at a facility that reportedly charged seventy thousand dollars a month. They kept him in a guest house on their Brentwood property. They gave him ultimatum after ultimatum. According to sources, he took their money for drugs, destroyed the guest house more than once, threatened his sister, and laughed about the wreckage on a podcast. A grand jury has now added lying in wait to his murder charges — alleging he hid his intentions from the two people who trusted him most, waited for his moment, and attacked them inside their own bedroom with the intent to kill. Under California law, every piece of that charge requires a brain that is planning and choosing. Nick Reiner was diagnosed with schizophrenia and placed under a conservatorship for grave disability in 2020. His medication was switched weeks before December 14, 2025, and sources say doctors warned his parents the change could trigger worse behavior. Tony examines the lying-in-wait allegation against the full behavioral record and the comparison to Lindsay Clancy — who spent months following her doctors’ orders while her brain pulled apart underneath her. Nick Reiner has pleaded not guilty. Held without bail. Next hearing September 15.
