Lindsay Clancy murder trial continues after demonstrators gather outside of courthouse

In the ongoing Lindsay Clancy murder trial, the defense has concluded its case after presenting testimony from a forensic psychiatrist regarding Clancy's mental state before and after the 2023 killings of her three young children. Prosecutors are now introducing rebuttal witnesses, with closing arguments expected next week. Clancy, 36, has pleaded not guilty to the murders of her children Callan, Dawson, and Cora, aged 8 months to 5 years old, whose bodies were found in the family home's basement in Duxbury, Massachusetts.

Despite Clancy's claim of postpartum psychosis, prosecutors argue she planned the killings and that she was not suffering from psychosis or bipolar disorder at the time.
