Lindsay Clancy Trial Ignites a War Over Murder, Motherhood and Mental Illness

from Drop Dead Serious With Ashleigh Banfield · host Drop Dead Serious With Ashleigh Banfield

The Lindsay Clancy trial has ignited a bitter national debate over murder, motherhood and mental illness. Clancy is accused of killing her three young children, Cora, Dawson and Callan, inside their Duxbury, Massachusetts, home in January 2023. Her defense argues she was suffering from postpartum psychosis and was not criminally responsible, while prosecutors say the evidence points to a deliberate and calculated plan. Now, as supporters rally outside the courthouse and the battle of the mental health experts intensifies, the question facing the jury is as difficult as it is devastating: Was Lindsay Clancy legally insane when she killed her children?
