The complete public transcript of Commonwealth v. Lindsay Clancy, the 2026 murder trial in Plymouth County Superior Court, Massachusetts, where the defense argued postpartum psychosis and lack of criminal responsibility for the January 2023 deaths of Cora, Dawson and Callan Clancy.
Every trial day, in a form you can hand to an AI assistant and question yourself, instead of reading someone's summary of it.
No position is taken here on guilt, sentencing, or anything else.
The jury hung and Judge Sullivan declared a mistrial on 4 September 2026, after seven days of deliberation (NPR). As of 8 September 2026, the Plymouth County District Attorney has not said whether he will retry the case (CNN). So this record covers the case as it was actually tried — opening statements through closing arguments — and no verdict was reached on it.
Copy this to your AI assistant:
Read https://raw.githubusercontent.com/ahrzb/clancy-trial-record/main/compressed/clancy-trial-180k.md in its entirety, all 22 trial days, before answering. Then sit as a juror in Commonwealth v. Lindsay Clancy: on that record alone, what would you decide, and which parts of the record decide it?
Then keep asking that same assistant your own questions — "what did the defense expert actually say about the medication timeline?", "show me every mention of the 911 call", "where do the two sides disagree about the timeline?" Answers come from testimony you can go read, not from coverage.
compressed/clancy-trial-180k.md— the one in the prompt above. Works with most assistants: Claude, ChatGPT, Gemini, Grok, DeepSeek, Llama.compressed/clancy-trial-400k.md— the fuller version, every single thing anyone said in court. Needs a large-context model: Gemini 2.5 Pro, GPT-4.1, or Claude with its 1M-token context.
Both cover all 22 days. The bigger file keeps every exchange; the smaller one leaves out courtroom routine ("all rise", swearing in witnesses) and the least informative back-and-forth to fit.
The original, uncut transcripts are in transcripts/, one file per day — go there whenever exact wording matters.

Fetched 2026-09-08 from https://lindsayclancytrial.com/transcripts/, which credits Rev as transcriber. Courtroom proceedings are public record. Nothing here is written by us — the compressed files contain only words that were actually spoken in court, with less important ones removed. Nothing was reworded or summarised.
How that was done and what was checked: TECHNICAL.md.
- The transcript may be wrong. It is a commercial transcription of courtroom audio, with inaudible gaps, misspelled names and mislabelled speakers.
- We removed words. Surviving wording is real, but a word missing from these files does not mean nobody said it. Check
transcripts/before quoting. - Your AI can be confidently wrong. It may invent testimony that isn't there, and it is not a juror. Ask it to point you at the lines it relied on, then look at them.
- This is not legal advice, not a verdict, and not the official court record.
