  "summary": "Lindsay Clancy's murder trial has ended in a mistrial after the jury deadlocked. The jury deliberated for seven days, but were unable to reach a unanimous decision on whether Clancy was criminally liable for the deaths of her three young children.\n\nClancy's lawyers argued that she was experiencing postpartum psychosis and should not be held criminally responsible, while prosecutors claimed she planned the killings ahead of time. The case has captivated and divided the American public, with even the US president making remarks.\n\nA hearing is scheduled for 29 September to determine what happens next in the case. The mistrial does not mean prosecutors have proven their case, nor does it mean the defendant is not guilty. The outcome leaves Clancy's future in limbo.",
