    COURT REPORT: 9.24.26

    09/25/2026 | 1h
    This week on Court Report, Patrick Clancy speaks publicly for the first time since Lindsay Clancy’s mistrial—and new allegations surrounding the lone holdout juror are raising even more questions about what happened inside that jury room.
    Plus, new developments in the disturbing Siders family case, a verdict in the Irondequoit family murders, and a decades-old unidentified man may have opened a surprising new line of inquiry into the still-unsolved 1982 Tylenol murders.
    We’re also following the deaths of two Ole Miss students as investigators await toxicology results, and the case of an attorney whose attempt to shoot his ex-wife inside a crowded restaurant was captured on surveillance video.
    And in Juror Notes: Pamela Smart is denied a new trial, Dr. Gerhardt König’s defense raises questions about what happened during jury deliberations, and Richard Allen takes his Delphi murder convictions to the Indiana Court of Appeals.

    The Ambush of Jared Bridegan: FL v Mario Fernandez-Saldana

    09/24/2026 | 50 mins.
    On February 16, 2022, Jared Bridegan was driving home with his two-year-old daughter when he came across a tire blocking the road.
    He stopped to move it.
    Seconds later, he was dead.
    What looked like a roadside shooting would unravel into an alleged murder-for-hire plot years in the making — involving a mysterious pickup truck, a hired gun, a bitter custody battle, and people much closer to Jared than anyone initially knew.
    In this episode of 13th Juror, we break down the murder of Jared Bridegan, the case against Mario Fernandez-Saldana, and the evidence that ultimately went before a jury.
    But some of the most explosive evidence in this case?
    The jury never heard it.

    And in Juror Notes: major updates in the cases of Lindsay Clancy, Barry Morphew, Adam Montgomery, and Nick Reiner — including a significant decision from prosecutors about the punishment Reiner could face if convicted.

    When Psychosis Goes on Trial: Andrea Yates & Lindsay Clancy Comparison

    09/17/2026 | 38 mins.
    Andrea Yates and Lindsay Clancy — two mothers, two tragedies, and two cases separated by more than two decades that raised many of the same difficult questions.
    In this episode, we take a deeper look at Andrea Yates: the years of severe mental illness leading up to the deaths of her five children, what happened during her two trials, and why her case was compared so often to Lindsay Clancy.
    James “Buddy” Day from UNMARKED: A True Crime Podcast joins me throughout the episode to discuss psychosis, intent, the insanity defense, and the challenge of applying a yes-or-no legal system to the complexities of the human mind.
    The cases are not the same — but understanding where they overlap, and where they don’t, may help us understand why the questions they raise remain so difficult more than 25 years later.
    As always, I'll lay out the evidence so you can be the 13th Juror and decide for yourself.

    This is also the first of several upcoming collaborations with Buddy. Next up: a deeper look at the Andrea Yates case, why it was compared so often to Lindsay Clancy, and where those comparisons do — and don’t — hold up.
