Legal scholar says Lindsay Clancy trial is a "battle of the experts" as defense rests

The defense in the murder trial of Lindsay Clancy, a Massachusetts mother who admitted to killing her children, rested on Friday. CBS News legal contributor Jessica Levinson joins "The Takeout" to look at the day's testimony.

The defense concluded its presentation in the murder trial of Lindsay Clancy, who is accused of strangling and killing her three young children. Clancy's legal team contends she should not be held criminally responsible due to her suffering from postpartum psychosis. Prosecutors, however, argue that the killings were premeditated.
