After the defeat on Northwind, Lindsey blamed the failure on the Combine's self-serving actions during their intervention, but despite being true, the Chancellor, after another defeat of the Fifth MAC on Liberty, was enraged. He ordered the execution of the MAC commander, Xavier McCarron for treason, and installed his daughter Danai Centrella-Liao as the new commander of the MAC. He also ordered the execution of any Forth and Fifth MAC officer which protested his decision, but it is unknown if Lindsey was one of these.[5]
