Key Points:

Testimony in the Lindsay Clancy murder trial continued Thursday morning, with one witness testifying before jurors were dismissed for the day; proceedings will resume Friday at 9 a.m.
The jury was excused early on Wednesday due to an unforeseen circumstance, as explained by the judge.
Prosecutors allege Lindsay Clancy strangled her three children—ages 5, 3, and 8 months—on January 24, 2023, in their Duxbury, Massachusetts home before attempting suicide by jumping from a second-story window, resulting in paralysis.
The defense argues Clancy was suffering from bipolar disorder and postpartum psychosis at the time and should not be held criminally responsible.
The judge addressed the jurors at the end of Thursday’s session, with a video of the remarks available for viewing.
