Defense opens its case as Lindsay Clancy murder trial moves into the defense phase

TL;DR Summary
After 14 days of testimony, prosecutors rested in Lindsay Clancy’s murder trial. Clancy has admitted to killing her three children, while the defense argues she was not criminally responsible due to postpartum mental health issues and medication effects, pursuing an insanity defense. The defense then began calling witnesses, including family members and mental-health experts, as the case transitions to the defense phase. If acquitted of first-degree murder, she could be committed to a state hospital with periodic reviews.
