Now that the Lindsay Clancy case just ended in a mistrial and justice is, for the moment, suspended, it’s time to pay special attention to a certain kind of woman, a perfect example of which showed herself while Plymouth County, Massachusetts, District Attorney Timothy Cruz was talking to news media immediately after the trial judge declared the mistrial.
She appeared to be in her 30s, dressed in pink — as Clancy supporters are known to wear — and she stood in camera view, maybe intentionally. The entire time Cruz spoke Friday afternoon, while he acknowledged Clancy’s three young victims, her own children, the woman behind him aggressively shook her head no. When Cruz offered to take questions, the woman yelled out over him. “You only cared when the kids were dead,” she said, sporting sunglasses and a bright pink scarf and purse. “Why don’t you care about the mother?”
