| 10/20/26 | The Mystery of Nolan Wells | The mysterious death of Nolan Wells has become one of the tragic cases of the summer. Wells was an 18-year-old college football player who traveled by boat with friends to Horn Island, off the Mississippi Gulf Coast, for a Fourth of July celebration . Hours later, the boat he arrived on with his friends, left the island without him. Later that night, Nolan was reported missing, and two days later his body was discovered along the shoreline. Authorities have maintained that the circumstances are consistent with an accidental drowning, and a grand jury ultimately found no evidence of criminal conduct and declined to bring charges. But the medical evidence has left important questions unanswered. Nolan’s family disputes the drowning explanation and has questioned what happened during the hours between his last known activity and his disappearance.

| 9/23/26 | Mother on Trial: Inside the Lindsay Clancy Case 6 | In Part 6 of Mother on Trial: Inside the Lindsay Clancy Case, Mystery and Murder: Analysis by Dr. Phil, Dr. Phil and producer Sara Carden examine the latest developments following the mistrial. The reported holdout juror is now pushing back on claims that he refused to follow the law, saying he never had reasonable doubt about Lindsay Clancy’s criminal responsibility. Dr. Phil and Sara also discuss Patrick Clancy’s first interview with his new wife, his grief over the deaths of Cora, Dawson, and Callan, his belief that postpartum mental illness drove Lindsay’s actions, and the toll of online conspiracy theories that falsely implicated him.They break down what could happen next, including a retrial, plea agreement, or other negotiated resolution, and why prosecutors may face challenges after a mistrial, especially when trying to seat an impartial jury. Dr. Phil also explains Massachusetts’ legal standard for criminal responsibility, focusing on whether mental illness prevented Lindsay from understanding the wrongfulness of her actions or conforming her behavior to the law. While he describes her condition as a psychiatric emergency, he stresses that any future resolution must still address accountability, public safety, and long-term confinement or treatment.

| 9/22/26 | Mother on Trial: Inside the Lindsay Clancy Case 5 | In Part 5 of Mother on Trial: Inside the Lindsay Clancy Case, Mystery and Murder: Analysis by Dr. Phil, Dr. Phil is joined by former federal prosecutor Alice LaCour (The Prosecutors: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/the-prosecutors/id1513765512) to examine the legal fallout from the mistrial and what could happen next.They break down the defense’s renewed motion for a required finding of not guilty, allegations involving the lone holdout juror, and why a retrial may carry significant risks for both sides. They also revisit the question at the heart of the case: Was Lindsay Clancy suffering from postpartum psychosis or another severe mental disorder, or did she understand her actions and retain the ability to control them?LaCour challenges key elements of the psychosis defense, including the reported commanding voice Clancy said she heard before the killings, while Dr. Phil examines her documented psychiatric deterioration, suicidal thoughts, medication history, and repeated efforts to obtain help. Could prosecutors try the case again, or will a manslaughter plea or negotiated resolution ultimately end it? As Dr. Phil and LaCour debate criminal responsibility, mental illness, and accountability, they return the focus to the three children at the center of the case: Cora, Dawson, and Callan.Envoy TV: https://www.envoytv.com/Chapter compares every Medicare plan nationwide for free to recommend coverage based on your doctors, prescriptions, and budget.
