Lindsay Clancy's lawyer kept his cross-examination brief today with the psychiatric nurse practitioner who prescribed Clancy Prozac and other drugs in November 2022. Kevin Reddington questioned Julie Paul for two minutes this morning (Tuesday, August 11, day 11) after her 50-minute direct-exam testimony on Monday. Paul worked with Clancy for about a week in late November 2022 while working at South Shore Hospital's perinatal behavioral health program in Weymouth, Massachusetts. She established the program in 2018 to address mental health issues in pregnant and postpartum women. She prescribed her Prozac, then stopped the Prozac and prescribed mirtazapine and klonopin. She then transferred Clancy's care to a colleague, Rebecca Jollotta, because she was leaving her position. "You worked with Lindsay, and the reason you you were involved with Lindsay is because, if I understand it correctly, her mother-in-law, Patrick's mother, Sue, worked with a friend of yours?" Reddington asked. "Correct," Paul answered. "So basically, Sue asked her friend if she could reach out and have you kind of step in and help out?" Reddington asked. "That's correct," Paul answered. "And that's what you did?" Reddington asked. "Yes," Paul answered. "And you stepped up and you treated this woman obviously with with care and professionalism. In my opinion," Reddington asked. "Thank you," Paul answered. "In the course of your treatment of Lindsay, actually, you went so far as to give her your cell phone, if I'm correct. Is that right?" Reddington asked. "She did have my cell phone because I called her on my day off. Yes, sir," Paul answered. "Okay. I don't have any other questions, Judge. Thank you very much for your care," Reddington said.
