The discussion looks at the unusual legal position now facing the defence, including a motion asking the judge to enter an acquittal following the hung jury. We examine how reasonable doubt works, why a jury cannot simply substitute its personal morality for the law, and the important differences between the Massachusetts approach and Canada’s law on not criminally responsible on account of mental disorder.
Joseph also draws on his 19 years sitting on the Ontario Review Board and his experience handling mental health cases to explain psychosis, command hallucinations, postpartum depression, infanticide and what actually happens when someone is found not criminally responsible.
The episode also addresses the evidence surrounding Clancy’s alleged suicide attempts, the role of her reported mental illness, her civil action against physicians, and why finding someone not criminally responsible is absolutely not a “get out of jail free card.”
A difficult case raises difficult questions, but the legal system still requires jurors to apply the law, even when the facts are emotionally overwhelming.

Joseph, Michael and Diana discuss the meaty legal breakdown of His Majesty the King v. J.W., 2025 ONCA 637. They unpack how the Ontario Court of Appeal treats myths and stereotypes in sexual-assault cases, especially delay in reporting and continued association, what’s permissible to argue, and how to ground inferences without crossing into prohibited reasoning. Expect a practical tour of jury charges, prior consistent statements (and their limits), strategic tips for defence counsel, and why careful, collaborative charge-crafting matters on appeal.
