## Key points

- Influencer charged over alleged secret recording of Christopher Clancy.
- Police say the call was accidentally answered on 6 August.
- Lawyers dispute whether Lindsay Clancy may testify in a medical lawsuit.

## Summary

True crime influencer Shawna Gramkow has been charged with felony unlawful wiretapping after police alleged she posted a secretly recorded phone call involving Christopher Clancy, father of Patrick Clancy. The case has drawn attention because the recording was shared online amid intense social media interest in the Clancy murder trial, while the parents’ legal cases against medical providers appear to be taking different paths.

Police say Christopher Clancy accidentally answered an unfamiliar call while driving on 6 August and that someone recorded him without his knowledge or consent as he spoke about his eldest son. Gramkow later posted a video describing the call; she was charged on 20 October, but Florida officials said she had not been arrested. She called the allegations false. Separately, Patrick Clancy’s lawyer said Lindsay Clancy may testify in his lawsuit against her healthcare providers; her lawyer disputed that she had agreed to testify or told providers she had homicidal thoughts.
