Lindsay Clancy begged for help before her children's killings, mother-in-law testifies

Lindsay Clancy pleaded for assistance before her three children's murders, according to testimony from her mother-in-law. Susan Clancy described her daughter's deteriorating mental health post the birth of her youngest son, noting insomnia, loss of appetite, anxiety, and sadness. Both the defense and prosecutors in Lindsay Clancy's murder trial agree that she committed the killings, but differ on the cause.

The defense asserts that Clancy was experiencing postpartum psychosis, while prosecutors claim it was a deliberate act. After three weeks of witness testimony, the prosecution concluded their case on Monday, leaving the defense to present their arguments. Family members testified about Lindsay Clancy's constant desire to be a mother and her recent struggles with sleep and mental health.

Clancy, now paralyzed from a jump after killing her children, has entered the trial in a wheelchair. She has pleaded not guilty to the charges, citing hallucinations and delusions after giving birth to her last child.
