The Lindsay Clancy trial has sparked a disturbing cultural debate: Why are so many people focusing on the accused mother while three murdered children fade into the background? John Gerardi and Jonathan Keller examine the insanity defense, online cheerleading for Clancy, and society’s growing tendency to prioritize adult desires over children’s needs. They also explore the widening political divide between young men and women, changing attitudes toward sex and family, and the latest abortion legislation moving through Sacramento.
