A jury is ready to listen to opening statements Monday within the trial of Lindsay Clancy, the Duxbury, Massachusetts, mother accused of killing her three kids in 2023.
Prosecutors are set to argue that Clancy, a former labor and supply nurse at Massachusetts General Hospital, deliberate the killings and bears full accountability for his or her deaths. Clancy’s lawyer, Kevin Reddington, will argue that on the time of the killings she was affected by postpartum psychosis, a uncommon psychological sickness linked to the stress, sleep deprivation and hormonal adjustments that observe childbirth.
The trial is anticipated to take a number of weeks.
