Lindsay Clancy's request for not guilty verdict denied by judge
Lindsay Clancy, the woman accused of killing her three children, has failed to have the charges against her dropped due to a lack of evidence.
Lindsay Clancy, 36, has had her request for a not guilty verdict denied by the judge in her murder case. Her defence team had argued that there was insufficient evidence to prove her responsibility for the deaths of her three children.
The judge turned down the defence motion, with prosecutors reportedly arguing that there was plenty of evidence. Clancy's attorney had claimed that prosecutors had not offered any proof of her guilt.
The development comes nearly a month after Clancy's first trial ended with a deadlocked jury, according to The Guardian US. Her case will now proceed.
