Gaps in Care Spotlight Lindsay Clancy Postpartum Psychosis Case

Lindsay Clancy, 32, is on trial for killing her three children in January 2023; her defense argues postpartum psychosis left her non-criminally responsible, while prosecutors say she intended to kill. Described as America’s saddest murder trial, the case highlights warning signs like insomnia and sleep deprivation and notes she was prescribed 13 psychiatric medications, raising broader concerns about gaps in maternal healthcare and how mothers in crisis are identified and treated.
