Latest news on Lindsay Clancy trial as closing arguments near
Closing arguments in Lindsay Clancy's murder trial are set to begin after weeks of testimony in Massachusetts. CBS News' Shanelle Kaul reports.
The Lindsay Clancy murder trial resumed in Plymouth Superior Court on Monday with the testimony of a forensic psychiatrist, Dr. Avram Mack. Clancy, who has pleaded not guilty to charges of first-degree murder for the deaths of her three children, is accused of killing them in her Massachusetts home in April. Dr. Mack testified that Clancy had told him her children said goodbye to God before her murders.
The defense rests after calling Dr. Phillip Resnick as their final witness, who testified that Clancy believed an external force overtook her body before the killings. The prosecution plans to call two more witnesses in the case. If convicted, Clancy could face life in prison without parole; if found not criminally responsible, she would be sent to a state psychiatric hospital.
