  "account": "PLYMOUTH, Mass. (AP) — Closing arguments are scheduled for Thursday in Lindsay Clancy's murder trial, where the mother faces charges of strangling her three young children. The case has sparked conversation about postpartum mental health. Clancy, 36, is accused of killing 5-year-old Cora, 3-year-old Dawson and 8-month-old Callan at their home in Duxbury, Massachusetts, in January 2023. She has pleaded not guilty by reason of lack of criminal responsibility, arguing that she was experiencing postpartum psychosis at the time. Prosecutors claim Clancy planned the killings and understood the wrongfulness of her actions. If found guilty of murder, Clancy faces a mandatory life sentence.",
