Why Lindsay Clancy didn't testify in her murder trial
The defense rested Friday in Lindsay Clancy's murder trial without Clancy taking the stand. CBS News legal contributor Jessica Levinson breaks down why.
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.
