Judge in Lindsay Clancy trial orders jury to keep deliberating after stalemate

Published Updated



The jury deliberating in the murder trial of Lindsay Clancy, the Massachusetts mother accused of killing her three children, has come to a stalemate as the jurors have not agreed upon a unanimous conclusion in the trial.

Clancy’s lawyers are arguing she was in a postpartum psychotic state when she strangled her three children in 2023, with Clancy pleading insanity in the defense of the murders. If the jury finds her guilty, Clancy faces up to life in prison, but if the jury finds her not guilty on the grounds of insanity, Clancy will be admitted into a state mental health institution.
