Opening statements are expected to begin in the murder trial of Lindsay Clancy, the Duxbury, Massachusetts, mom accused of killing her three children. The trial is expected to be emotional, with testimony from Patrick Clancy, Lindsay’s ex-husband, who found their children dead. Lindsay and her lawyers plan to argue an insanity defense, citing postpartum psychosis and overmedication. Prosecutors believe she knowingly killed her children.
Trial Details
The public won’t be allowed to hear the 911 call Patrick Clancy made to police after finding Lindsay on the ground. She had thrown herself from a second-story window at their home after strangling their children. The jury, consisting of 12 women and six men, was picked last week. Proceedings will begin at 9 a.m.
