The Plymouth County District Attorney’s Office is looking to correct the record after Lindsay Clancy’s defense attorney accused prosecutors of saying “shut her up” on a “hot mic” as Clancy sobbed openly in court.
Her attorney, Kevin Reddington, seemed to be referring to a moment after Thursday’s testimony from a medical examiner who performed 8-month-old Callan Clancy’s autopsy. As a sobbing Clancy is being led out of the courtroom for a break, a whispering voice can be heard as the livestream camera zooms in on the state seal. It’s hard to make out the exact wording.
Assistant District Attorney Jennifer Sprague appeared confused after Reddington levied his allegation following a break in testimony Friday morning, turning to fellow prosecutor Shanan Buckingham and mouthing “what?”
Reached for comment, a spokesperson for the Plymouth DA’s office said they had reviewed the video, and someone in the courtroom said “‘shut it off,’ meaning to take down the autopsy photos from the large screen.” The DA’s office earlier attributed the comment to one of its prosecutors before issuing a clarification.
Still, Reddington’s accusation prompted Judge William Sullivan to issue a sharp warning against inappropriate comments.
“I just want to make it real clear that there is to be no inappropriate comments or disruptive comments to be made inside of this courtroom,” Sullivan warned. “If anybody is found to make those, they will be immediately escorted out and barred for the balance of this, all right? I just want to make that real clear. And just in case you’re wondering, there are microphones all around.”
He added: “There’s going to be no warnings, no yellow cards; you’re out, all right? So I just kind of want to make that real clear.”
