Nancy Grace Fires Back at Lindsay Clancy’s Lawyer Kevin Reddington Over Murder Trial Criticism: 'He's Not My Concern'

Nancy Grace fired back at Lindsay Clancy's defense attorney, Kevin Reddington, stating on Fox News's Hannity that she has no interest in appeasing him because her core focus remains on the three children who were killed.

The public clash between the legal commentator and the defense lawyer erupted during jury deliberations in the high-profile Massachusetts murder trial.

Speaking to reporters outside the courthouse on Monday, August 31, Reddington lashed out at national media coverage, specifically naming Grace and Sean Hannity.

Reddington called Grace “the Queen of Mean” and described her weekend trial coverage as "horrific" and deeply hurtful.

He fiercely disputed Grace's on-air commentary claiming that Lindsay Clancy had used Google to search for "ways to kill.”

Reddington asserted this "absolutely never happened" and dared her to produce evidence from the trial records.

He criticized the commentators for misrepresenting facts and told reporters, "If you're going to be a journalist, do it right."

Returning to Fox News's Hannity, Grace doubled down on her stance.

"It is not my duty, nor my desire, to speak out and appease or please Mr. Reddington. He is not my concern," Grace said.

The feisty former prosecutor invoked the memory of her own fiancé's murder, stating she has dedicated her life to advocating for crime victims who are weaker or less powerful than their aggressors.

Her fiancé, Keith Griffin, was shot and killed at age 19 by a disgruntled former co-worker in August 1979, just months before their scheduled wedding

"Since the death of my fiancé, I've been devoted to one thing," Grace continued, "Speaking on behalf of violent crime victims – very often victims that are weaker or less cunning, less powerful than others. And among those victims are these three children, Cora, Dawson and Callan."

Rejecting the defense's push for sympathy, Grace doubled down on first-degree murder statutes, countering with: "The law is clear. If you show intent to kill, you are liable for murder one."

Lindsay Clancy is facing three counts of first-degree murder for the 2023 strangulation deaths of her children: Cora, 5, Dawson, 3, and Callan, 8 months.

While the prosecution argues that Clancy acted intentionally and knew right from wrong, Reddington and the defense maintain she had severe postpartum psychosis and is not criminally responsible.

On her show Crime Stories with Nancy Grace and across various Fox News appearances, Grace has consistently argued that the Lindsay Clancy trial has proven premeditated murder beyond a shadow of a doubt. Rejecting the defense's mental health claims, Grace maintains that Clancy was acting rationally and intentionally.

Grace claimed that Clancy actively researched methods of murder online before executing the act. This is the specific claim that defense attorney Reddington fiercely denies ever happened.

Grace has repeatedly argued that Clancy meticulously mapped out a route to send her husband, Patrick Clancy, away from the home.

She pointed to digital forensics showing that Linsday timed exactly how long it would take him to go to CVS and pick up takeout from a restaurant to ensure he had enough time alone with the children.

Grace highlighted that Linsday acted completely calm and normal during a phone call with her husband right before the killings, which Grace argues proves deliberate deception rather than psychosis.

As the jury remains deadlocked during deliberations, Grace predicted on Hannity that there will not be a middle-ground or compromise verdict. She notes that the jury is gridlocked because the evidence of first-degree murder is stark, leaving no room for a lighter manslaughter option.
