Psychologist Said Lindsay Clancy Told Her Husband About Hearing Voices After Killings
The defense is calling family and a doctor to support its claim that Clancy was in a psychotic state when she killed her three children.
- On Tuesday, forensic psychologist Paul Zeizel testified for the defense, detailing Lindsay Clancy's auditory hallucinations of a male voice commanding her to kill her three children.
- Defense attorney Kevin Reddington argues Clancy suffered from postpartum psychosis that impaired her reality, with her condition deteriorating in late 2022 as she prepared to return to work as a labor and delivery nurse.
- Dr. Elizabeth Laposata testified regarding spinal injuries Clancy sustained during a 13-foot fall, while Susan Clancy described the family's growing concern over Lindsay's declining mental state during the 2022 holiday season.
- Assistant District Attorney Jennifer Sprague challenged the defense narrative, questioning the medical timeline of strangulation and contending Clancy remained in control, disputing the psychotic episode claim.
- The trial resumes on Wednesday at 9 a.m., with defense experts aiming to prove Clancy was misdiagnosed and overmedicated, while prosecutors maintain her actions were intentional and seek criminal responsibility.
