Before killing her kids, Lindsay Clancy searched about hallucinations, psychosis and ways to die
PLYMOUTH, Mass. (AP) — In the weeks leading up to her January 2023 murder of her three young children, Lindsay Clancy searched online for information about hallucinations, psychosis, and the side effects of various drugs she was prescribed, according to data presented at her trial. She also looked up suicide methods, bipolar disorder, and postpartum depression, and wrote a note in October 2022 expressing doubts about her parenting.
Clancy's defense claims she was suffering from bipolar disorder and postpartum psychosis, a rare condition that can alter a woman's perception of reality after childbirth.
