The Lindsay Clancy trial has captivated the nation for weeks now. Breakdowns of the case — and conspiracy theories, too — have saturated social media, with people searching for answers to questions like: How could a suburban mother kill her three children? Was the husband, Patrick Clancy, involved somehow? What can we all do to prevent this from happening to our loved ones or even us? While some content creators are cautious about being ethical and sticking to the facts, others indulge in conspiracies or crime-solving narratives that enter a sticky ethical gray area. It all points to our fascination with true crime, and how we use these stories to bring larger societal issues to light. Crime historian and podcaster Kate Winkler Dawson and true crime content creator Haley Price share their experiences working in the world of true crime — and why it’s important to remember that at the center of these stories are real people.
