Testimony Highlights Lindsay Clancy's Struggles Before Tragedy

TL;DR Summary
In the fourth week of Lindsay Clancy's murder trial, her former mother-in-law testified that Clancy was begging for help and increasingly anxious, paranoid, and suicidal in late 2022. The defense cites postpartum psychosis (and bipolar disorder) as key to her state of mind, while a psychologist noted psychotic symptoms can be transient; the verdict could hinge on criminal responsibility, with potential life imprisonment if convicted or commitment to a mental health facility if not responsible.
