Key moments from past week of Lindsay Clancy's trial for killings of her 3 children

The last week of Lindsay Clancy's trial for the killings of her three young children, which her defense argues took place in a state of postpartum psychosis, saw mental health professionals and autopsy doctors deliver powerful testimonies, with Clancy breaking down on multiple occasions. CBS News reports.

Patrick Clancy and his new wife Rachel Danis are facing online scrutiny amid the Lindsay Clancy murder trial. Friends and family have condemned what they call baseless claims about Patrick's actions before the deaths of their three children. Patrick, 39, testified during the trial in Plymouth Superior Court but has not been accused of wrongdoing.

He described Lindsay as a loving mother before her mental health deteriorated. The family strongly rejects the online rumors, with a relative stating they are "heinous" and deeply upsetting. Patrick's new wife Rachel has also faced online harassment, including death threats and the sharing of personal information. Patrick has since moved to New York and married Rachel in April 2026.

He has dedicated much of his time to supporting families dealing with mental health issues since the tragedy, co-founding the Heard Foundation in 2024. The trial now focuses on Lindsay's mental state at the time of the killings, with her defense arguing severe mental illness left her not criminally responsible.
