Judge in Lindsay Clancy Trial Bars Release of Her Husband’s 911 Call, Autopsy Photos of Their Kids
Opening statements are set for Monday after jurors were seated in the murder trial, where the judge also barred public release of key evidence.
- Plymouth Superior Court Judge William Sullivan ruled Friday that the 911 call and autopsy photos in the Lindsay Clancy murder trial will be impounded. Media outlets may report on the contents but cannot record or display the sensitive evidence.
- Clancy is charged with the January 2023 murders of her three children, Cora Clancy, Dawson Clancy, and Callan Clancy. While admitting to the killings, the defense contends she was not criminally responsible, citing severe postpartum psychosis and overmedication.
- Patrick Clancy requested the restrictions to prevent further trauma, arguing public dissemination "will create a substantial likelihood of harm" to his family. The jury will still access and review the evidence in court as part of the trial.
- Opening statements in the high-profile trial begin Monday at Plymouth Superior Court. Prosecutors have listed Patrick Clancy as the first expected witness, following jury selection of 18 jurors who will hear the case.
- Prosecutors argue the killings were premeditated, while the defense asserts Clancy was struggling with improperly treated postpartum depression and 13 different medications. The trial is expected to last at least six weeks.
