Lindsay Clancy jury deliberates for third consecutive day

Google News MT — Crime (en) reports that jurors in the murder trial of Lindsay Clancy have entered a third day of deliberations without reaching a verdict.

Clancy, a Massachusetts mother, is accused of strangling her three young children in January 2023 at the family's home in Duxbury. She survived an apparent suicide attempt the same night.

The defence has argued that Clancy was in a drug-induced psychosis caused by medications prescribed to treat postpartum depression and anxiety, and that she was not in control of her actions. Prosecutors contend she acted intentionally.

The jury has been weighing the evidence since deliberations began, with no indication yet of how close a decision may be. The case has drawn widespread attention across the United States due to its circumstances and the nature of the defence presented.
