Watch live trial: Lindsay Clancy sobs as jury is shown baby's autopsy photos
Key Points:
- The Lindsay Clancy murder trial resumed with emotional testimony, including a medical examiner describing the autopsy of Clancy's infant son, Callan, who was strangled; Clancy has admitted to killing her three children but pleads not guilty to first-degree murder charges, citing postpartum psychosis and overmedication.
- Friends and coworkers testified about Clancy's mental state before the murders, describing her struggles with medication side effects, insomnia, and feelings of being a "zombie," though none reported suicidal or homicidal thoughts.
- Teachers and the family pediatrician testified that Clancy appeared to be a loving mother and showed no obvious signs of postpartum issues during interactions and medical visits prior to the killings.
- The prosecution argues Clancy was aware of her actions and faked a suicide attempt afterward, while the defense maintains she was not criminally responsible due to her mental health condition.
- The trial continues with planned testimonies from Clancy’s friends, family, and treating doctors, and jurors are viewing sensitive evidence such as autopsy photos; Clancy faces life in prison if convicted or commitment to a mental health facility if found not responsible.
