  "summary": "Lindsay Clancy's murder trial continued with two psychiatrists who treated her taking the stand. According to the Associated Press, the psychiatrists were questioned about Clancy's nearly five-day stay at McLean Hospital in Massachusetts, a few weeks before she killed her three children.\n\nThe prosecution and defense presented different narratives about Clancy's mental state during her hospital stay. The prosecution highlighted that Clancy denied wanting to hurt anyone else or planning to kill herself to hospital clinicians. On the other hand, Clancy's lawyer argued that she had been seeking mental health help for months but was not properly diagnosed and was prescribed a series of medications that worsened her condition.\n\nClancy is charged with murdering her three children in their suburban home in January 2023. She has pleaded not guilty to the charges. CBS News reported that the trial proceedings included testimony from Boston.com reporter Abby Patkin, who covered the day's events.",
