Lindsay Clancy’s defense attorney, Kevin Reddington, has agreed to represent Brian Marsh, a man charged in a fatal shooting in Troy, according to public court records and local reporting by the Times Union. Marsh faces second-degree murder and weapons charges in connection with the November 2024 death of 30-year-old Etwan R. Holmes on 102nd Street in Troy’s Lansingburgh neighborhood.
Case Details in the Capital Region
Brian Marsh was arraigned in Rensselaer County Court following an indictment handed up by a grand jury. According to court filings cited by the Times Union, prosecutors accuse Marsh of shooting Holmes during a dispute. Reddington entered a not-guilty plea on behalf of Marsh during the court appearance. The case remains in the early pre-trial phase as defense counsel reviews discovery materials provided by the Rensselaer County District Attorney’s Office.
Legal Background of Defense Counsel
Kevin Reddington recently represented Lindsay Clancy, a Massachusetts nurse whose high-profile murder trial for the deaths of her three children ended in a mistrial in Plymouth County Superior Court. Following the conclusion of that proceeding, Reddington took on the Rensselaer County homicide defense in New York’s Capital Region. High-profile defense assignments often shift geographically depending on defendant retainments and court appointments, bringing prominent Massachusetts and regional attorneys into local New York courts.
Next Steps in Rensselaer County Court
Rensselaer County Judge has scheduled the next preliminary conference for the Marsh proceedings to address motion practices and evidence admissibility. Prosecutors must turn over remaining ballistics reports and witness statements under New York criminal procedure timelines. Reddington stated to local media that he is evaluating the state’s evidence before filing pre-trial suppression motions.
