  "account": "PLYMOUTH, Mass. (AP) — A crowd of hundreds, predominantly women in pink, rallied outside a courthouse Thursday to support Lindsay Clancy, who is on trial for the killings of her three children. The annual event coincided with the first full day of the nearly month-long trial.\n\nClancy's lawyer argues that she was mentally ill at the time of the killings and should not be held criminally responsible. Prosecutors claim she orchestrated the murders and manipulated her husband to be away when she committed the crime on January 24, 2023.\n\nThe rally's organizers hope the case will bring awareness to postpartum psychosis, a rare mental illness that affects 1 to 2 women per 1,000 after childbirth. Clancy's attorney says she had this condition, which is believed to have influenced her actions.\n\nThe women gathered, some wearing shirts with messages like \"Peace For Lindsay\" and \"Justice For Lindsay,\" stood silently before applauding Clancy's defense attorney. They formed a circle, recited the Lord's Prayer, and made heart shapes with their hands. Clancy, 36, has pleaded not guilty to the murder charges.",
