Lindsay Clancy’s defense rests at trial over whether postpartum psychosis drove her to kill her kids
The defense has rested its case in the Lindsay Clancy murder trial after eliciting more testimony about her mental state before she strangled her three young children in 2023. Prosecutors are calling rebuttal witnesses before attorneys make their closing arguments in the trial. Clancy’s defense attorney, Kevin Reddington, does not dispute that she killed the children. But he says the jury should not hold her criminally responsible because she had a rare mental illness called postpartum psychosis. Prosecutors argue that Clancy planned the killings and contrived to get her husband out of the house.
