Who is Kelsi Cote? North Adams, MA woman’s murder trial on Kevin Reddington’s task list after Lindsay Clancy case
Kelsie Cote, accused of murdering her grandmother in 2022, is now on defense attorney Kevin Reddington’s docket.
North Adams, Massachusetts woman Kelsi Cote, 30, is set to become the next high-profile case on defense attorney Kevin Reddington's docket, following his work on the Lindsay Clancy case. Cote is charged with the 2022 murder of her 74-year-old grandmother, Doris Cote. Prosecutors allege Cote attacked her grandmother with scissors and a paperweight, intending to make the death appear as an accident.
Cote has pleaded not guilty to the charges and has faced multiple delays in her trial, including one related to Reddington's representation of Clancy. The case arose after Doris Cote's death on November 1, 2022, after a relative discovered her unresponsive body. Investigators allege Cote used an open pair of scissors and struck her grandmother with a paperweight.
Cote allegedly attempted to hide her actions by dragging her grandmother through the house to make it seem like an accidental fall. The defense attorney's involvement in Clancy's case has caused scheduling issues, but a hearing to suppress evidence has been rescheduled for September 28 in Berkshire Superior Court.
