Closing arguments loom in Lindsay Clancy trial over postpartum psychosis defense
TL;DR
Closing arguments are expected this week in Lindsay Clancy’s Plymouth, Massachusetts trial, where she has admitted to killing her three children but jurors must decide whether she can be held criminally responsible due to a claimed postpartum psychosis insanity defense. Prosecutors argue the killings were premeditated, while experts offered competing assessments of her mental state as testimony from family members and health professionals described her condition and treatment history.
