Lindsay Clancy murder trial begins

The murder trial for the Massachusetts woman who strangled her three children, then tried to kill herself begins today.

Lindsay Clancy, 35, is accused of ruthlessly murdering her three children – Cora, five, Dawson, three, and eight-month-old Callan – back in January 2023.

Although Clancy does not deny killing her children, she has pleaded not guilty and claimed she is not responsible for her actions because she was suffering postpartum psychosis.

Prosecutors are planning to argue the killings were intentional and well planned, not the work of someone who had lost control.

A jury is set to hear opening statements Monday in Clancy’s murder trial, then her ex-husband, Patrick Clancy, is expected to take the stand.

He is both a witness for the prosecution and the defense.
