An ill-timed grin and wink for the CourtTV camera in the triple-murder trial of mom Lindsay Clancy has cost a magazine scribe her credentials and came just after the defense sought a mistrial.
The Vanity Fair correspondent is seen hamming it up at the 7:12:05 mark in Monday’s session in Plymouth Superior Court. That’s exactly when the jury was called back to be warned by the judge to ignore testimony by a witness who delved into the “mortal sin” of slaying your babies. The jury was then sent home for the day.
Bu ifade, Clancy’nin çocuklarına “Tanrı’ya gidin” dediğini ve onları egzersiz ipiyle boğarken söylediğini içeriyordu.
Just minutes before, defense attorney Kevin Reddington moved unsuccessfully for a mistrial based on some of Dr. Kirk Heilbrun’s testimony on Clancy’s Catholic faith. Reddington argued, with the judge agreeing but not declaring a mistrial, that the doctor didn’t have the pedigree to delve into what is and isn’t a sin.
As is CourtTV’s custom, any time the jury is called back in, the camera turns to Clancy, the gallery, the ceiling — any direction but where jurors walk in to protect their anonymity mid-trial.
The image of the journalist in the front row of the gallery then smiling and then winking as the camera pans other stone-faced reporters and family members was a stark bookend to a dramatic court exchange that was noticed immediately to thousands watching.
Parlak ünlü dergi, lime-yeşili elbisesiyle olan yazarı kadro dışı bıraktığını duyurdu.
“We were interested in the prospect of a personal essay by Brittany Romano about her experience growing up with Lindsay Clancy,” Vanity Fair said in a statement to the New York Post. “Yesterday, after clear conflicts with our editorial standards and processes, we informed Romano that we were not moving forward with her essay and informed the court that she is no longer credentialed by Vanity Fair.”
“Brittany Romano’nun Lindsay Clancy ile birlikte büyürken yaşadığı deneyimler üzerine kişisel bir deneme yazısı olasılığı bizim ilgimizi çekiyordu,” Vanity Fair, New York Post’a yaptığı bir açıklamada söyledi. “Dün, editöryal standartlarımız ve süreçlerimizle açık çatışmaların ardından Romano’ya makalesine devam etmeyeceğimizi bildirdik ve mahkemeye de Romano’nun Vanity Fair tarafından artık akredite edilmediğini bildirdik.”
Her antics for the camera have gone viral online where many are slamming her for sitting among journalists covering a somber trial where harrowing details of the deaths of Clancy’s three children and testimony on postpartum psychosis are central — not the presence of a Court TV camera.
Kameraya yönelik hareketleri çevrimiçi olarak viral hale geldi; çoğu kişi onu, Clancy’nin üç çocuğunun ölümlerine dair ürkütücü ayrıntılar ile doğum sonrası psikoza dair ifadelerin merkezi olduğu kasvetli bir davayı kapsayan gazeteciler arasına oturduğu için eleştiriyor — CourtTV kamerasının varlığı değil.
It’s an unfortunate sideshow to a grueling case that is nearing a conclusion. The Herald will remain in the Plymouth court every day until a verdict is reached.
Bu, sonuç yaklaşan yorucu bir davanın talihsiz bir yan gösterisidir. Herald gazetesi, karar açıklanana kadar her gün Plymouth mahkemesinde kalmaya devam edecektir.
