Reddington has gone off the rails

Now Kevin Reddington tells us!

Now he says that there was a “total and complete lack of evidence” that his client Lindsay Clancy murdered her three children in 2023.

That’s what Reddington claimed yesterday in open court, after never once disputing the facts of his client’s ghastly triple slaying during a six-week trial.

“Where,” Reddington demanded, “is the evidence that she did this?”

Uh, wasn’t it all stipulated to? Now he wants to un-stipulate the admission of guit. No wonder the prosecutor dismissed Reddington’s latest hail Mary as “laughable.”

"Uh, wasn’t it all stipulated to? Now he wants to un-stipulate the admission of guit."

Call it the Tik Tok defense, because that’s where it came from.

But if there is no evidence, as he now claims, does this mean Lindsay Clancy can sue Reddington for legal malpractice, considering that he forgot to mention that somewhat significant information, that she didn’t do it, for all those weeks?

Watching him flopping around the courtroom like a gaffed fish yesterday, you got the feeling that Kevin Reddington’s 15 minutes of fame are over. And that he knows it.

But just as crazy as claiming there’s no evidence against Clancy – after she’s admitted slaughtering her own children – was when Reddington claimed to be a victim of persecution.

Reddington is the guy who started this whole post-trial circus, on the courthouse steps after a mistrial was declared, ripping the district attorney, the holdout juror, etc.

But now Reddington is the victim. He didn’t get the old Hollywood mogul’s memo:

“Self-pity is not good box-office.”

Instead, he’s up there, beating his breasts, weeping the buckets about how he’s been framed:

“I am so tired of hearing ‘persecution, attacking.I am doing all these terrible thing to this juror. I filed one motion and said nothing!”

No, you let the “journalists” in their oversized glasses and their pink-clad post-menopausal acolytes handle the doxing for you.

“All these comments I have made,” he said, “have been in reaction to Donald Trump on down to Nancy Mace on down to Cruz not the DA but the politician calling for her execution. I have responded to these outlandish comments including the guy from Houston.”

That would be the holdout juror’s lawyer. Outside he accused the lawyer of “fanning the flames to hear himself speak.”

Wow! Talk about projection. Then he mentioned that the holdout juror has raised $400,000. No mention that his client has gotten $1.3 million – for killing her three kids.

But don’t bother Reddington with details.

“I’m just tired of hearing about me persecuting people.”

The lesson here is, Reddington can throw a punch, but he can’t take one. He was flying high until the holdout juror, Michael Desronvil, got himself a flame-throwing lawyer and both of them went on TV.

As soon as he got punched in the nose, that’s when Reddington fell down and curled up into the fetal position.

And then of course he had to resort to the last refuge of a scoundrel – blaming President Trump. He did at least twice.

The first time Trump mentioned the mistrial was the same Friday afternoon it was declared. A reporter asked for his reaction, and he gave it – a measured response, at least by Trump standards.

The second time Trump brought up the case was after Reddington asked him on regime-controlled media for a pardon, even though it’s a state case, not federal.

Trump reacted again, stating the obvious, that the case was not in his purview. By the way, Trump added, it’s a very sad case all around and there are no winners.

How does this make Trump the villain here?

Reddington’s obnoxious behavior is why the prosecutors referred to the potential “pollution” of a new jury pool.

Without mentioning him by name, they’re talking about Kevin “Pollution” Reddington. With his motions to be allowed to legally dox the holdout juror, he’s trying to intimidate any potential jurors who might dare to think for themselves, which in Massachusetts is now defined as Wrong Think.

As the hearing began, mass murderer Clancy was wheeled into the courtroom, sitting between her Grumpy Old Men lawyers – Reddington, age 75, and Marty Weinberg, age 80.

Having neither the facts nor the law to pound, Reddington pounded the table. He also used a lot of big words, including “bifurcation,” about four times. He talked about the conundrum of admitting culpability, and the impingement it caused.

Not bad, but Weinberg emplys even more pretentious phrases, like “It would moot out a lot of other issues.”

Weinberg believes that you should never say “necessity” when you can say “manifest necessity,” and never say “point” when you can say “predicate,” as in, “the predicate of last night’s motion.”

By the way, once again yesterday, no reporters asked Kevin Reddington about those federal income-tax liens that the Internal Revenue Service has filed against his mansion in Marshfield -- $2,372,493.24 worth.

No, instead they’d rather keep screeching about the $12,600 Desronvil allegedly owes his former landlord.

If it comes down to a fight between the holdout juror and Kevin Reddington, I guess you know whose side I’m on – the guy who owes the feds $2,371, 233.28 less than the other guy.
