Could postpartum psychosis explain what happened in the Lindsay Clancy case?
In this episode of True Crime with Jen Coffindaffer FBI, Jen Coffindaffer is joined by Dr. Camilla Epright, a clinical ethicist and professor whose research focuses on the evaluation and treatment of people who are criminally mentally ill.
They take a deep, nuanced look at postpartum psychosis, including how it differs from postpartum depression, what symptoms doctors look for, how medications and treatment factor into diagnosis, and whether the evidence in Lindsay Clancy's case supports a psychosis diagnosis.
The discussion also tackles hallucinations, delusions, criminal responsibility, and why experts can reach very different conclusions when evaluating the same case.
A fascinating conversation at the intersection of mental health, medicine, ethics, and criminal law.
